COMMENT

A Comment -- General Comments From an Expert(A Commentary)

Jul 28, 2009
Interest Rates. Longer-term there is going to be pressure on interest rates to go up. With the amount of paper that the US is going to have to put out to finance their deficits there will be tremendous pressure to move rates up. This would also affect interest rates globally.

Pengrowth Energy(PGF.TO)

Well managed company. His outlook for energy long-term is positive. Distribution is a little bit high but doesn't think there is a danger of being cut. (See Top Picks.)

Problem with playing fertilizer stocks directly is that commodities can be extremely volatile. There are other ways to participate in the agricultural sector. (See Top Picks.)

Manulife Financial(MFC.TO)

Jul 28, 2009
Insurance companies were torn down during the financial crisis but on recovery have been leading the way up but was not on the basis of very solid underpinning. A tremendous company but still some possible disappointments in earnings going forward. (Added to his positions at $9 but would look at it at around $20.)

Closely tied to the demand for coal. If you own, consider taking some profit, as he is not sure how sustainable the current demand is and if the economy is strong enough to maintain the prices.

Hotel REITs. Hotel vacancies are way up and will become taxable in 2011. If you sell your holdings now you are selling at the bottom of the cycle. Hopefully there will be some recovery in the next couple of years and his tendency would be to Hold unless you have some were the balance sheet is vulnerable.

Rogers Communications (B)(RCI.B.TO)

Jul 28, 2009
Telcos are pretty much in a dogfight, not just with wireless, but also landlines, television etc.. New competitors are starting to come into the market with Internet protocol television. Rogers’ outlook going forward is a little bit soft. Prefers Cogeco Cable (CCA-T), which sells at a severe discount to most of the major players and expects it will catch up before there is any significant appreciation by the majors.

Have made a remarkable recovery but have been doing so by selling off pieces of the company and diluting old shareholders. What we have seen lately is over exuberance in the market, which may not be well founded.
