The recent acquisition of TN.UN by NPR.UN is not looked favourably by some experts. Others suggest that there will be some pain for both the shareholders of the two companies.

Q: Thinking of making a switch from ALA where I can book a tax loss to offset gains and buying BIP with roughly comparable yield. I also suspect I am improving quality and safety a bit as well and removing some perceived energy exposure. Would you agree? Thanks.

Q: In regards to the sudden for Amaya, I'm not entirely certain but it may be due to a federal appeals court on Tuesday overturned New Jersey's sport betting law for the second time in two years, saying federal statutes forbid gambling on college and professional sports except in a handful of states, which may impact any future plans Amaya had in this area.

Seems to me investors' panicking is overblown on this one and the market in general.

Q: Yesterday was a rout, Today is a small bounce back. There are several analysts out there that expect a bounce back over the next 2 to 3 weeks in the range of 5%, and the next leg down as there still is not enough panic out there. At 5I do you believe in this theory? Small bounce back and then another fairly large leg down in the order of at least 20%. More so on the next leg down. This is what Mr. Berman has indicated and he seems to be correct almost all the time.
