Q: Hi 5i: I’m a bit puzzled by Northland Power’s (NPI) strategic review announcement, as I am more used to seeing this move in the context of companies that have been struggling in one way or another and punished by the market. Over the time I have owned NPI it has appeared to be doing very well, with significant growth projects coming on stream and maintaining a very attractive stream of cashflow back to shareholders. At this point it still has more growth in the proverbial pipe and its support in the market has taken its yield down below 5%, even before the price pop on the review announcement. Is the review likely an indication that it has received overtures from a potential acquirer? What else might occasion the review in the context of a company that appears to be doing well and being rewarded with an increasing share price? Thanks for your thoughts!

Q: I already have a 5.91% position in Canadian National Railway (CNR). Is there too much overlap if I buy Stella Jones (SJ)? If not, what percent of a portfolio would you make SJ at current share prices and market environment?

Thanks again.

John
