- Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. (BEP.UN)
- Brookfield Renewable Corporation Class A Exchangeable Subordinate Voting Shares (BEPC)
Q: In a TFSA, which of these two would you buy today? I know you have answered this question in the past - and that you’ve said to focus on yield, but doesn’t BEPC deserve some type of premium even in a registered account?
- American Tower Corporation (REIT) (AMT)
- Crown Castle Inc. (CCI)
- Alexandria Real Estate Equities Inc. (ARE)
- Healthpeak Properties (PEAK)
Q: What do you think of this company and life sciences real estate. Institutional money is starting to flow into the space - wondering if this company is a good buy/how is is valued.

Q: I have just sold my Inter Pipeline stock which was about 2% of my portfolio. I am looking to re-deploy proceeds. Was considering investing in Pembina but am now wondering if Enbridge would be a better play but am unsure of where things stand with the Michigan pipeline. I would appreciate you thoughts on PPL vs ENB. I have a 10 year investment term.

Presently have a 4.5% weight of FTS in my RRSP.
Thinking of selling half and buying BIP.UN for growth and the dividend
Your comments and any other suggestions are most welcome.
Thank you

Q: What are your thoughts on this relatively small reit. Are its tenants substantial enough to have weathered the Covid - 19 crisis and is the dividend safe. Any other thoughts you may have would be appreciated.
Thanks for the great service

Q: I like the website changes, well done.
I'm starting to think about tax loss harvesting. I have losses of 15% & 20% respectively in AQN & BEP.UN (only held since early 2021).
Would you consider this short holding period too short for meaningful tax loss harvesting (i.e. being too focused on short-term movements)?
I intend to add these two (or similar) back after the 30-day period, they are part of my longer-term plan.
Can you suggest one or two replacements for the interim (or longer?). Portfolio is appropriately diversified and already includes FTS. H? EMA? BLX?
Thanks.

Q: Hi
Please note PPL is not available in the short search. It was required to add :ca to bring it up.
Would you please expand on your comment earlier about Brookfield wining the bid for IPL? Was this just because the bid is out there or do you have an opinion.
In my position Brookfield deal is a big loss due to taxation(25% capital gains hit) as well as the benefit of holding PPL shares ( dividend, growth, Heartland participation, PPL Reputation) The share price of IPL is now tracking PPL (0.5 x $41.40 = $20.70) and is way above the Brookfield offer($19.50 Maybe? or some kind of shares?).
Brookfield offer is no longer financially better than PPL offer.
Is there something else in this?

Q: what is your outlook for AQN as a result of their proposal? It seems the investors do not like it at all. Is it time to move on to something less convoluted or am I overly concerned.
Q: Hello
Could I have your thoughts on PIF earnings, growth forward and any comments on the sale of carbon credits which I find interesting (money for nothing).
Appreciate it thanks

Q: Hello 5i: I have a 5% position in IPL and my cost avg is $ 25.95. If we assume that Pembina offer is accepted @ 0.5 shares current offer .. is it best to take a capital loss and sell now, or stay with Pembina as it seems to be a better managed company and possibly gain in both share price and dividend distribution.
Thanks
Carlo

Q: I own a large amount of shares in IPL and also own shares in BIP
I ‘m debating if I should sell at the current market price that is higher of either bid or wait it out to see if BIP makes a higher offer. If I wait it out and Pembina offer is accepted I would loose a nice amount of cash.
I gather this will play out soon maybe as early as next week.
What do you recommend.

Q: I own TRP, ENB and PPL in my regular investment account. In my TFSA I hold small positions in KEY and SIS. I am retired and looking for income primarily but think 4 pipelines is probably too many. I am thinking of selling either PPL or KEY and buy more SIS. Thoughts and what pipeline would you sell?

Q: Could you suggest a buy-and-forget type US dividend stock that would offer some dividend growth and share-price growth for a 10 year hold? Already own MSFT, AAPL, INTC, NVDA, JNJ on the US side.

Q: Good afternoon,
Given recent corporate developments at PPL - would you view it as having much more room for price appreciation or view primarily as a hold for income?

Q: What are your top safe dividend paying stocks? Only interested in the dividend and want to protect capital as much as possible. Looking to park some money for a while. Safety is the prime concern.
Q: To my knowledge both of these companies are in the specialty insurance business. Given that TSU is wholly owned by BAM.A (3.5% of my overall holdings; overlap concerns?), which do you prefer for a conservative investor and why. What would be their outlook considering an post-COVID opening world and over the next 5 yrs? Is there another name you prefer more in this specialty space?
Thank you!
Thank you!
