Q: This morning RBC Direct Investing downgraded DR to sector perform which I assume contributed to the 4% price decline observed today. RBC noted the increased competition from Avera Health which is proposing to build a health complex in N.Dakota which is expected to compete in part with Medical Facilities for new patients. Considering that DR makes up nearly 5% of my income-oriented portfolio, do you recommend a reduction at this time in DR stock or is it better to wait to see what the impact really is and how DR responds?

Q: Could you provide an updated opinion on DR based on their latest quarterly results. The latest quarter appear to be very good with the dividend payout ratio dropping below 50%.
I am thinking of initiating an initial position in this company for a combination of nice income (over a 5% yield) and hopefully a little growth in the share price over time.How does future growth in their business look?
Your thoughts as always would be greatly appreciated.

Q: Hello Peter and gang.

I read your year end review and suggestions about investing in healthcare as a theme for 2017. I'm very much an income oriented investor. I'm interested in Medical Facilities Corp. Would you say this company falls under the category of healthcare? Also what's your overall view of this company.

Thanks

Nicholas

Q: I'm 78 and interested in income with security of capital and I'm wondering about changing the percentage allocation of various sectors. For example, rather than hold 5% in each of healthcare, materials and energy, I'm considering holding 15% in healthcare. NWH.un, SIA, DR and SIS are broadly diversified within the sector, provide an excellent average income and have been generally approved by 5i. What do you think, and feel free to make suggestions.

Thanks for all the steady, interesting and profitable suggestions daily.
