Not a favourite. Company is OK and well managed, but prefers gas/integrated companies.

Doing a 2 for 1 split. Moving into international market. May be slow for a while.

One of the smaller trusts. Prefers others.

Not a fan of energy stocks.

Good dividend. Well managed. Will probably move up over the next 6 months.

Good company. Magna is a majority shareholder. Well run company. Down because of economy concerns and vending (?) a company into it.

(Was a top pick on Mar 21/01 down 2%) 5% yield but no earnings support. Won't move. Should write a covered call or straddle.

Move into US was good.

Enormous difficulties.

Has had all kinds of problems such as fuel , economy, credit concerns, but going forward they should do better over a long term.

Business travel is way down. Will take a few years.

Good price to start accumulating. Fed cuts should kick start. Expects a 15/20% annual return.

Prefers to own the 5 yr 10% bond

Good dividends. Growth will be awhile.

Not a fan of their property, but has good outlook for palladium. Good price.
