What bothers me about STB.TO is the dividend seems to exceed their ability to cover from cashflow. I need to check closer but it seems that they are able to cover their current dividend by selling paper. I am not sure that is sustainable.

The thing I hate about Canadian companies is the amount of information is limited and not available in a timely manner as with US companies.

So you bought the bus company..

Pro.. no buy USA worries since they build on both sides.
Con They have lost orders due to municipalities not getting funding from above levels of government
Con they do business where the currency is declining.

I have some but sold half a while back. I've been in for a while.
