Q: Hi Team,
I went looking through the questions and couldn’t find one like this. I am not looking for personal advice but the context is that I am closer to winding down the working years and am trying to build some income into the portfolio through dividend growers.
What would be your top seven dividend growers in both the US and Canada where the starting dividend is at least 1.5% indicating that management sees the dividend as a meaningful part of its capital allocation strategy? Obviously, I would prefer some sector diversification as well.
Please feel free to deduct as many questions as you deem appropriate.
Thanks for the great help!

Q: Has Hydro One always paid a dividend since it went public? Has it ever decreased the dividend payment ( in dollars)? I am thinking of buying Hydro One as a 5+ year hold.
I am looking for a solid utility with good chance for growth in share price over the long-term, but already own Fortis, so am looking for an alternative to that stock.
What would be a good entry price to buy Hydro One? Thank you.

Q: I own Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation and am considering adding more to my holdings.
As of June 4, the US raised the tariffs on steel coming into the US from 25% to 50%.
With the US administration's recent rate increase and their pattern of changing tariff rates on a whim, do you see this as a good time to own LIF?
I am looking at an investment horizon of 5+ years. If it is a good time to invest, at what price would a good entry point be? Thank you for your assistance.

Q: Hello, I saw the announcement by PPL about this solicitation process. Please provide a simple English recap and implications for shareholders. Is this a good time to add to holdings or should I look at TRP instead?

Q: I am retiring in 6 months, I have cash to invest but want something that pays a descent dividend, do you have any suggestions
Q: Hi there, what are your thoughts on MCB here and future outlook for growth? Would you be a buyer at today's prices? Thanks
Q: Do you have any near term concerns on adding to one's SOBO holdings? Are fundamentals and the outlook reasonably solid for this company, and the sector?
Avoiding one of those "why is my XXXXXX stock down today" questions, I will say that I have noticed over the last 6 months that the pipelines have been generally drifting lower. I am assuming this is just short term sentiment / sector rotation?
If all looks good to you, my intent was simply to add more SOBO at a favourable technical buy level.

Q: Why has rogers stock price increased lately
Q: What's going on with Rogers? I know about today's sale, but even before that it was up well beyond the other telcoms over the last couple of months (20%). Was it just advance word of the sale leaking out?

Q: Good morning, As a retired investor who can handle moderate risk I'm looking to add to my consumer staples holdings in an RRSP, for both growth and a dividend. My only current holding in this sector is Proctor & Gamble (PG). What would be your top 3 picks in Canada and top 3 picks in the US, ranked please, for a new consumer staples holding?
Q: I would very much appreciate your views on this firm.
How do QBR metrics compare to other Canadian telecoms?
Is the 3.4% dividend sustainable?
Debt level?
Cause of growth in 2025 – is there a viable growth trajectory? Reasons to think it will continue?
Thank you for your valued views.

Q: Hi Team,
Is this a value trap or does it seem like the CEO is doing a great job with capital allocation and the valuation looks attractive for the long term?

Q: I am relooking at the Fixed Income portion of my portfolio. The bulk is bond funds, but it also includes a few GIC’s and a HISA. But what about Preferred Shares, EIT, FIE, TXF, and UMAX, all of which I hold STRICKLY for their distributions? I am currently grouping them in with my dividend stocks but maybe they should be included in Fixed Income? EIT and FIE have paid out the same distribution for ten plus years. Thanks.
Q: Good morning, I am presently down about 30% and wondering whether to just let it be, and wait for a comeback at some point, or sell and deploy funds elsewhere, and if so, what might you suggest as an alternative, keeping in mind that if I sell and invest elsewhere, I would need to make about 50% just to get back to breakeven on my original OXY investment. Thanks
Q: I have held BCE for about 3 years now. Cost of $20K and it's worth $13.5K now. Down $6,500... 34%. Wondering if it makes sense to sell half of my BCE (about $7K) and buy $7K worth of Telus to try and leverage any potential gains across both rather than just one. I guess, wondering if splitting my investment across two of these telco's makes sense ... and a brief reason as to why (or why not) I should do it.
Q: Hi, I have CPX and have considered switching in the past to FTS or H , because of your ranking. However in the last 5 years it has doubled in price and has a great dividend. Hydro One seems to be keeping pace but has a much lower dividend. Just wondering what I’m missing and would you be more comfortable with a switch to H or FTS. Thanks
