Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Nintendo Co (OTC:NTDOY.PK) shares continue to fall on Wii U

VANCOUVER, BC (June 9, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Nintendo Co (OTC:NTDOY.PK) shares tumbled for the second consecutive day Thursday June 9, 2011 after its second-generation Wii videogame console unveiled earlier this week disappointed the market, say analysts.

Despite the buzz surrounding the Japanese entertainment giant’s Wii U at the videogame industry’s annual trade show in Los Angeles, the console and its touch screen controller has left investors cold.

Nintendo shares dived more than 5 percent on Wednesday after the company unveiled the console at the Electronic Entertainment Expo, or E3.

The stock extended losses Thursday, closing 4.5 percent lower at 16,160 yen on the Osaka Securities Exchange.

The company’s shares are now at their lowest since March 2006 before the launch of the original Wii console amid worries over its strategy at a time when online games and smartphones are taking market share.

Nintendo has not said how much it plans to charge for the Wii U when the new consoles hit the market next year to do battle with Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Sony’s PlayStation 3 (PS3).

“I don’t really see Nintendo’s strategy yet,” Hiroyuki Fukunaga, a Tokyo-based market analyst and chief executive of Investrust Inc, told Dow Jones Newswires.

“There are concerns that (the Wii U) may turn out to be expensive with the touch-screen controller,” he added.

A key feature to the Wii U controller is a 6.2-inch (16-centimetre) screen that displays maps or other information to complement game play, acts as a touchscreen game board and serves as a second monitor.

A forward-facing camera allows for online video chat with friends while playing with or against them online using a television connected to a Wii U, which will boast high definition graphics.

“The product itself is not bad — market expectations had been far too high,” said Mitsuhige Akino, chief fund manager at Ichiyoshi Investment Management.

Nintendo is credited with opening the world of videogames to “casual” family players and with the introduction of motion-sensing controllers on the first Wii console launched in late 2006.

But while the company is hoping to attract more “core” gamers with its beefed up console, analysts question whether the Wii U or the handheld 3DS can once again capture non-traditional gamers won over by the original Wii who can now use their smartphones to play inexpensively online.

“The simplified, more intuitive action elements that are made possible by the design of the controller hold promise for reaching a broad audience,” Jay Defibaugh, analyst at MF Global FXA Securities, said of the new console.

But he cited the risk of “significant cannibalization of the traditional game software market from social network-based and smartphone content”.

Microsoft and Sony last year challenged Nintendo by adding motion or gesture-based controls to Xbox 360 and PS3 consoles, which boast more power than the Wii for richer imagery and more complex action.

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Orlando Magic guard Gilbert Arenas falls foul of NBA officials again

VANCOUVER, BC (June 9, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Orlando Magic guard Gilbert Arenas said he had been fined by the NBA for comments he made on his Twitter account.

The NBA confirmed on Thursday June 9, 2011 that Arenas had been fined but did not say what for or how much the penalty was.

Arenas later revealed on the social media network that he was fined for an offensive joke he had made.

He apologized for his comments and asked the NBA for a copy of their rules for posting on social networking sites.

Arenas, 29, is a three-time NBA All-Star but has fallen foul of officials before.

In the 2009-10 season, when he was playing for the Washington Wizards, he was suspended for storing unloaded handguns in the team locker room.

He was traded to Orlando late last year.

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports More Americans demanding Canadian retail space, will drive up rents RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:REI.UN)

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports More Americans demanding Canadian retail space, will drive up rents RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:REI.UN)

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports More Americans demanding Canadian retail space, will drive up rents RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:REI.UN)

VANCOUVER, BC (June 9, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Canada’s largest shopping mall owner expects store rents to increase in the next few years as more American retail chains head north, driving up competition for prime retail spaces.

RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:REI.UN) said Thursday June 9, 2011 it is currently in talks with American chains like Target Corp., Dollar Tree and overstock seller Big Lots about their plans to move to Canada.

The U.S. chains are part of a wave of retailers looking north to sell their goods to Canadians as they see little growth in the already competitive market at home and keep their eyes on stronger retail sales in Canada.

But those American chains will have to fight to occupy the limited available retail space in the country, or wait for it to be built.

U.S. discount chic giant Target plans to build some brand-new stand alone stores, expanding on its plan to simply take over the leases for current Zellers locations and set up shop by 2013, RioCan CEO Edward Sonshine said Wednesday after the company’s annual general meeting in Toronto.

“Target is only the very large front end of the spear,” he said about the growing number of American retailers heading to Canada.

“It’s going to be great if you’re Canada’s biggest landlord. More demand for space usually equals higher rents,” he said.

Sonshine said the company is focusing on building brand new stores in Calgary and urban areas of Toronto, with construction on one store in Canada’s largest city slated to begin by the end of the year.

He added that discount clothing retailer Marshalls, which entered Canada this year, wants to expand to nearly 100 more locations across the country, as sales are “blowing the lights out.” Clothing store Urban Outfitters also has plans to expand in Toronto.

Major U.S. retailers, department stores and mall chains are expanding into Canada as a way to try out international expansion without the risks of heading to very different markets in Europe or Asia.

They’re looking for new customers and hope that Canadians will be ready to open their wallets by 2012, when the first bunch start moving in. Canadian retail landlords are already sprucing up their malls, and building new ones to attract the best tenants.

Earlier this year, RioCan announced a 50-50 partnership with U.S. mall operator Tanger Outlet Centers that will see up to 15 American-style outlet malls in Canada. The deal is worth up to $1 billion.

Sonshine said a rival mall development by Calloway REIT (TSX:CWT.UN) only a few kilometres away from RioCan’s site in Halton Hills, Ont. is delaying that development slightly, but the other RioCan outlet malls should start opening across Canada between 2013 and 2015.

CB Richard Ellis, a commercial real estate financing and management company, said it appears demand is rising, even though there isn’t yet any firm data that indicate how much rents could increase.

“We’re seeing demand for all different format types, different classes, everyone from high fashion to discount retailers, which will have different space requirements” said Ricky Hernden, a senior research analyst at the firm.

“With vacancy already pretty tight across the board, any influx of demand will cause rent increases.”

But higher rents don’t necessarily mean that stores will raise their prices to make up the difference, said international retailing instructor Brent Barr at Ryerson University.

He said that stores could increase their marketing expenses to bring in more sales, which could help to pay for higher rent.

“Yes, you may pay more money for a certain location but that’s going to bring more people in the door, which means you actually generate more revenue,” he said.

“You don’t always have to raise your prices to do it.”

RioCan units gained four cents to close at $24.77 Wednesday on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports More Americans demanding Canadian retail space, will drive up rents RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:REI.UN)

VANCOUVER, BC (June 9, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Canada’s largest shopping mall owner expects store rents to increase in the next few years as more American retail chains head north, driving up competition for prime retail spaces.

RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:REI.UN) said Thursday June 9, 2011 it is currently in talks with American chains like Target Corp., Dollar Tree and overstock seller Big Lots about their plans to move to Canada.

The U.S. chains are part of a wave of retailers looking north to sell their goods to Canadians as they see little growth in the already competitive market at home and keep their eyes on stronger retail sales in Canada.

But those American chains will have to fight to occupy the limited available retail space in the country, or wait for it to be built.

U.S. discount chic giant Target plans to build some brand-new stand alone stores, expanding on its plan to simply take over the leases for current Zellers locations and set up shop by 2013, RioCan CEO Edward Sonshine said Wednesday after the company’s annual general meeting in Toronto.

“Target is only the very large front end of the spear,” he said about the growing number of American retailers heading to Canada.

“It’s going to be great if you’re Canada’s biggest landlord. More demand for space usually equals higher rents,” he said.

Sonshine said the company is focusing on building brand new stores in Calgary and urban areas of Toronto, with construction on one store in Canada’s largest city slated to begin by the end of the year.

He added that discount clothing retailer Marshalls, which entered Canada this year, wants to expand to nearly 100 more locations across the country, as sales are “blowing the lights out.” Clothing store Urban Outfitters also has plans to expand in Toronto.

Major U.S. retailers, department stores and mall chains are expanding into Canada as a way to try out international expansion without the risks of heading to very different markets in Europe or Asia.

They’re looking for new customers and hope that Canadians will be ready to open their wallets by 2012, when the first bunch start moving in. Canadian retail landlords are already sprucing up their malls, and building new ones to attract the best tenants.

Earlier this year, RioCan announced a 50-50 partnership with U.S. mall operator Tanger Outlet Centers that will see up to 15 American-style outlet malls in Canada. The deal is worth up to $1 billion.

Sonshine said a rival mall development by Calloway REIT (TSX:CWT.UN) only a few kilometres away from RioCan’s site in Halton Hills, Ont. is delaying that development slightly, but the other RioCan outlet malls should start opening across Canada between 2013 and 2015.

CB Richard Ellis, a commercial real estate financing and management company, said it appears demand is rising, even though there isn’t yet any firm data that indicate how much rents could increase.

“We’re seeing demand for all different format types, different classes, everyone from high fashion to discount retailers, which will have different space requirements” said Ricky Hernden, a senior research analyst at the firm.

“With vacancy already pretty tight across the board, any influx of demand will cause rent increases.”

But higher rents don’t necessarily mean that stores will raise their prices to make up the difference, said international retailing instructor Brent Barr at Ryerson University.

He said that stores could increase their marketing expenses to bring in more sales, which could help to pay for higher rent.

“Yes, you may pay more money for a certain location but that’s going to bring more people in the door, which means you actually generate more revenue,” he said.

“You don’t always have to raise your prices to do it.”

RioCan units gained four cents to close at $24.77 Wednesday on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Transcontinental (TSX:TCL.A) hikes quarterly dividend for the third time in 18 months

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Transcontinental (TSX:TCL.A) hikes quarterly dividend for the third time in 18 months

VANCOUVER, BC (June 9, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Transcontinental increased its dividend for the third time in 18 months Wednesday June 8, 2011 after the printing and publishing company recorded its eighth consecutive quarter of higher adjusted operating profits.

The quarterly dividend will rise 23 per cent to 13.5 cents per share, starting with the next payout on July 22. The last hike came six months ago.

Transcontinental (TSX:TCL.A) reported its adjusted profit rose 18 per cent to $40.1 million, or 49 cents per share for the period ended April 30. That compared with 42 cents or $34.1 million a year earlier.

However, net profits were cut by more than half after restructuring costs, discontinued operations and other one-time items.

Analysts had expected 44 cents per share on $523 million of revenues, according to estimates compiled by Thomson Reuters.

New printing contracts boosted Transcontinental’s revenues by just one per cent to $514.7 million. Excluding factors such as acquisitions, closures and the currency exchange, revenues grew by three per cent.

While profits are growing for its core printing business, the company warned that its interactive operations will take longer to take off after it lost $800,000 on $30 million of revenues in the quarter.

“We think we have hit bottom in terms of profit this quarter and the third and fourth quarters should demonstrate improvements on that front. But for the rest a little patience will be required,” president and CEO Francois Olivier said during a conference call.

Transcontinental expects this new segment’s revenues will increase to $300 million by the end of 2013, up from $183 million three years earlier.

Olivier said he was pleased with the overall results, “especially with the fact that we have generated organic revenue and profit growth for the fifth consecutive quarter in an industry in profound transformation.”

Chief financial officer Benoit Huard added that the dividend increase reflects Transcontinental’s “strong cash flow generating ability” and reduced capital expenditures.

Drew McReynolds of RBC Capital Markets said the dividend increase was a surprise.

“On the heels of a 22 per cent dividend increase in December 2010, today’s announcement came earlier than expected and is a positive surprise,” he wrote in a report.

Free cash flow from operations increased 16 per cent to $76.1 million, while capital spending decreased to $8.4 million from $26.3 million.

Net income fell to $33 million or 41 cents per share, from $67 million or 83 cents a year earlier.

The decreased net income included unusual items such as restructuring costs and last year’s $34.7 million in net income from its discontinued U.S. direct mail business.

Transcontinental earned $74 million on $361 million of revenues in the key printing segment. Organic revenue grew by 4.7 per cent, driven by the new Globe and Mail contract.

Its printing plant in Freemont, California, gained several new commercial printing contracts. The plant is generating $4 million of revenues per year but is operating at less than 50 per cent capacity.

The media segment, which accounts for about 28 per cent of overall revenues, contributed $22 million of earnings on $149 million of revenues.

Overall, he doesn’t expect advertising trends to grow significantly in the third quarter in the face of an economic slowdown, but is more optimistic about gains by the end of the fiscal year.

Higher operating income was driven by new contracts and synergies from using its most productive printing assets.

During the quarter, Transcontinental announced the closure of two printing plants — one in Quebec and one in Manitoba. Production will be transferred to larger, more efficient facilities.

It also acquired a weekly newspaper in Dolbeau-Mistassini, Que., ad launched five community newspapers in the province.

In addition to signing a four-year deal with Canadian Tire (TSX:CTC) that will add about $30 million to $40 million in annual revenues, it partnered with Undertone to expand its digital advertising offering.

Transcontinental is the largest printer in Canada and Mexico and the fourth-largest in North America and has 10,500 employees. It publishes consumer magazines and French-language educational resources, as well as community newspapers in Quebec and the Atlantic provinces.

Its shares closed at $14.47, up 38 cents, or 2.7 per cent, in Wednesday trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports More Canadians Paying down Credit Balances

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports More Canadians Paying down Credit Balances

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports More Canadians Paying down Credit Balances

VANCOUVER, BC (June 9, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports the balance on his line of credit is more than $100,000, but he’s paying off his credit cards every month.

He’s a friend of mine and his credit profile is pretty typical – smart enough not to pay the astronomical rates on his charge cards, but using the lower rate on his line of credit to cover the gap between his spending and his income.

And now he’s doing an even smarter thing. He’s actually paying down that line of credit.

A new study from TD Canada Trust says Canadians are beginning to get the message that it’s time to stop accumulating debt, but what about paying it down?

With interest rates expected to rise, nearly four-in-10 Canadians believe that a fixed mortgage rate is the way to go over the next year, a new poll shows.

Still, another 32%, or nearly one-third, would choose a variable rate, which moves up and down with the prime rate, according to the survey released Thursday by CIBC.

“The results confirm there really isn’t one right answer when it comes to choosing a mortgage and the rate alone is not the only factor that Canadians consider,” Colette Delaney, senior vice president of mortgages, lending and insurance at CIBC Retail Markets, said in an interview.

Variable mortgage rates tend to be lower than fixed rates. That’s because with fixed rates, you’re paying extra for the peace of mind of knowing that if rates move up, you will not be affected.

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Stocks are showing a lack of direction in early trading on Thursday June 9, 2011

VANCOUVER, BC (June 9, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Stocks are showing a lack of direction in early trading on Thursday as traders digest a mixed batch of economic data. The major averages have turned mixed after ending the previous session at their worst closing levels in over two months.

Currently, the major averages are on opposite sides of the unchanged line, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq posting a modest loss. While the Nasdaq is down 2.70 points or 0.1 percent at 2,672.68, the Dow is up 25.65 points or 0.2 percent at 12,074.59 and the S&P 500 is up 2.06 points or 0.2 percent at 1,281.62.

The choppy trading comes as traders react to a Labor Department report showing an unexpected uptick in weekly jobless claims as well as a Commerce Department report showing that the U.S. trade deficit unexpectedly narrowed in the month of April.

The Labor Department report showed that initial jobless claims edged up by 1,000 to 427,000 from the previous week’s revised figure of 426,000. The modest increase surprised economists, who had been expecting jobless claims to slip to 418,000 from the 422,000 originally reported for the previous week.

Peter Boockvar, equity strategist at Miller Tabak, said, “Claims are now stubbornly above 400,000 for a 9th straight week and points to a still very lackluster labor market that was on full display when the May payroll figures were released last week.”

Separately, the Commerce Department said that the U.S. trade deficit narrowed to $43.7 billion in April from a revised $46.8 billion in March. Economists had expected the trade deficit to widen to $49.0 billion from the $48.2 billion originally reported for the previous month.

The unexpectedly narrower deficit was largely due to a sharp drop in imports from Japan due to supply disruptions caused by the recent earthquake.

While the narrower trade deficit for April may lead economists to raise their estimates for second quarter GDP growth, Paul Dales, Senior U.S. Economist at Capital Economics, said the drop in the deficit will eventually be reversed as the temporary effects caused by disruptions from Japan’s earthquake fade.

Most of the major sectors are showing only modest moves early on, contributing to the lackluster performance by the broader markets.

Nonetheless, early strength has emerged among health insurance stocks, with the Morgan Stanley Healthcare Payor Index up by 1 percent. On the other hand, biotechnology stocks have come under pressure, dragging the NYSE Arca Biotechnology Index down by 1.2 percent.

In overseas trading, stocks markets in the Asia-Pacific region closed mostly lower on Thursday, although Japan’s Nikkei 225 Index bucked the downtrend once again, edging up by 0.2 percent. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng dipped by 0.2 percent, while China’s Shanghai Composite Index plunged by 1.7 percent.

Meanwhile, the major European markets have all moved to the upside on the day. The U.K.’s FTSE 100 Index has edged up by 0.2 percent, while the French CAC 40 Index and the German DAX Index are up by 0.4 percent and 0.3 percent, respectively.

In the bond market, treasuries are seeing modest strength in morning trading, adding to the gains posted in the previous session. Subsequently, the yield on the benchmark ten-year note, which moves opposite of its price, is down by 2.5 basis points at 2.939 percent.

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Apple CEO (NASDAQ:APPL), Steve Jobs’s Latest Project: iSpaceship

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Apple CEO (NASDAQ:APPL), Steve Jobs’s Latest Project: iSpaceship

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Apple CEO (NASDAQ:APPL), Steve Jobs’s Latest Project: iSpaceship

VANCOUVER, BC (June 8, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Apple (NASDAQ:APPL) wants to build a new corporate headquarters that, in Chief Executive Steve Jobs’s own words, looks “a little like a spaceship.”

On Wednesday June 8, a day after the company unveiled its new Web-based service iCloud, Mr. Jobs spoke at a Cupertino, Calif., city council meeting to pitch plans for a new Apple corporate campus on 150 acres of land, much of which used to belong to Hewlett-Packard.

“Apple has grown like a weed,” said Mr. Jobs, as he explained how the company’s current Cupertino headquarters only holds about a quarter of the 12,000 employees it has in the area.

A spokesman for Apple declined to comment on Mr. Jobs’s presentation.

Mr. Jobs’s affinity for aesthetically pleasing designs and attention to details were evident in the proposal that he laid out. The new office will be a round four-story building with a big courtyard in the middle. The futuristic design doesn’t have “a single straight piece of glass in the building” and it hides much of the parking underground, so there’s 90% less surface parking, according to the plan Mr. Jobs outlined. Not content merely to add four times more landscaping than the space current has, Apple hired an arborist from Stanford to put in indigenous trees, including apricot orchards, he said.

The campus, which Apple aims to build by 2015, will also include a 3,000-person capacity “café”, an auditorium, fitness center and R&D buildings, he said.

“We have a shot at building the best office building in the world,” Mr. Jobs told city council members. “Architecture students will come here to see this.”

According to former Apple employees, the new corporate campus is long overdue. As Mr. Jobs explained at the council meeting, Apple outgrew its headquarters building years ago, forcing it to rent buildings nearby to accommodate all of its staff. That has had an impact on Apple’s culture, these people say. One example is how the current cafeteria is perpetually crowded, they say, forcing those who work away from the main office to go elsewhere for lunch. That cuts down on the kind of spontaneous discussions that used to take place between colleagues in different divisions that led to some of the company’s most inspired ideas, they say.

Judging from the open adoration of many of the city council members, it’s unlikely that Apple will face opposition to its plans. Mr. Jobs, however, took no chances. In answer to a question about how Cupertino could benefit from Apple’s plans, he noted Apple’s status as the city’s largest tax payer, suggesting that if it wasn’t able to execute its plans it would have to move to another location.

“If we can’t then we have to go somewhere like Mountain View, and we’d take our current people with us and give up and over the years sell the land here,” he said.

Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Apple CEO (NASDAQ:APPL), Steve Jobs’s Latest Project: iSpaceship

VANCOUVER, BC (June 8, 2011) Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease Reports Apple (NASDAQ:APPL) wants to build a new corporate headquarters that, in Chief Executive Steve Jobs’s own words, looks “a little like a spaceship.”

On Wednesday June 8, a day after the company unveiled its new Web-based service iCloud, Mr. Jobs spoke at a Cupertino, Calif., city council meeting to pitch plans for a new Apple corporate campus on 150 acres of land, much of which used to belong to Hewlett-Packard.

“Apple has grown like a weed,” said Mr. Jobs, as he explained how the company’s current Cupertino headquarters only holds about a quarter of the 12,000 employees it has in the area.

A spokesman for Apple declined to comment on Mr. Jobs’s presentation.

Mr. Jobs’s affinity for aesthetically pleasing designs and attention to details were evident in the proposal that he laid out. The new office will be a round four-story building with a big courtyard in the middle. The futuristic design doesn’t have “a single straight piece of glass in the building” and it hides much of the parking underground, so there’s 90% less surface parking, according to the plan Mr. Jobs outlined. Not content merely to add four times more landscaping than the space current has, Apple hired an arborist from Stanford to put in indigenous trees, including apricot orchards, he said.

The campus, which Apple aims to build by 2015, will also include a 3,000-person capacity “café”, an auditorium, fitness center and R&D buildings, he said.
