Q: How do you feel about ZWU today? Or would you prefer to own a pipeline company like ENB? Seems the number of anticipated rate increases has fallen in recent days given Russia's war on Ukraine. Looking for price stability and yield. Great service, thanks!

Q: Turbulent times.
Yesterday you seemed to give a preferential nod to BCE in the domestic telco sector. Is this a change of view on Telus, which you have been preferring for some time? If so, could you please elaborate. Still grateful after all these years, so thanks again. Al

Q: I have questions:

1. ATCO vs BIP.UN - Do you agree with this article making a case that ATCO is maybe a better buy?

https://seekingalpha.com/article/4492123-forget-brookfield-infrastructure-buy-atco-instead?mailingid=26881852&messageid=dividend_ideas&serial=26881852.14358&utm_campaign=Dividend%2BIdeas%2BLaunch%2B2022-03-02&utm_content=dividend_ideas_control&utm_medium=email&utm_source=seeking_alpha&utm_term=Dividend%2B%26%2BIncome%2BSmart%2BList

2. Does ATCO have a rock-solid balance sheet that could potentially ride out an possible long recession?

3. Is there significant overlap between ATCO and BIP.UN ? Could a person own both? (I do also own BEP.UN which has utility exposure).

Q: I have very little energy exposure in my registered account.
Is now a good time to add a long-term dividend payer and if so, please suggest 2 for me to consider.
Preferably one that isn't already over-valued and therefore may drop in price should oil return to $50 or $60/ barrel.
Thanks.

Q: I have around 15% of my total portfolio value in energy and utilities, spread across the following stocks. I have held most of these positions for quite some time.

Given the considerable rise in the past year (but still quite far off from ATH for some), would you suggest any consolidations or removal of any of these positions?

ENB: 17.72% of total, 44.35% gain
SU: 14.35% of total, 73.34% gain
MEG: 14% of total, 309.59% gain
WCP: 11.55% of total, 249.88% gain
ERF: 8.82% of total, 421.21% gain
CNQ: 8.67% of total, 248.39% gain
CPG: 7.33% of total, 346.70% gain
POW: 6.72% of total, 67.89% gain
PPL: 6.38% of total, 53.52% gain
AQN: 4.47% of total, 4.83% gain


Thanks in advance for the insight and advice!
David

Q: What are your five favourite dividend stocks with growth possibilities at the moment? Please include one in the utility sector (perhaps a renewable). Thank you as always, Pete in Calgary.

Q: In my RRIF account I hold NTR which has broke two of my sell/trim thresholds. It has grown by 100% and is now over 7% holding in this account, so I may trim back to a 5% holding. My short list to replace with a higher dividend income in mind are ACO.X, EIF, NWC, and PKI. Could I please get your ranking and if any should be removed from short list.

Q: I find myself on the fence with Savaria. I have held it a long time and consequently have had it grow from a partial position initially to full position without adding to it. With interest rates due to rise I assume it will cost SIS more to service their debt (eventually at least), and if inflation continues to run I would prefer owning a company that has demonstrated an ability to increase their dividend. In your last report, under “Valuation” you state “… we expect SIS to maintain its record of annual dividend increases”, but I note in the Report Card of that same report it gives 5 Yr Dividend Growth a C rating and what looks like a -25%? Can you please comment?
Thanks,
