Q: Hi, I would appreciate if you can recommend some dividend paying companies with strong balance sheet, steady dividend increase and have not cut dividend in past. I am looking for names which have sold with general market and are at attractive valuations.
Thanks.

Q: Sadly, APPS is down 65% since I purchased it and now is a mere pittance of my TFSA (.65% of my entire portfolio). Should I hang on and hope for better things? Or sell and use the proceeds to top up an existing holding? If the latter, would you top up NVDA or APPL?

I am also down 25% on LIF, which I purchased primarily for its generous dividend. Can you please explain why the dividend fell so steeply last quarter? And looking into that crystal ball you keep on your desk, what would anticipate will happen to both the stock price and the dividend going forward? Thank you.

Q: Please recommend two to three utility stocks to hold for over 5 years with around 5% yields, and having some long term growth and security. Please provide your perspectives on your selections. AQN, FTS, EMA, CPX, H, BEP.un, BLX, ACO.x, CU. Not sure if BIP.un should be included with this list. Thanks, Roger

Q: Good Morning,

Just curious to what Telus payout ratio is for the dividend. a friend of mine read an article where it said Telus is paying out way more than they are earning. Can you comment on the safety of the dividend? I know they just recently raised it.

Thanks
Jimmy

Q: Greetings 5i team and thank you for answering the phone during these rocky times.
The 30 Apr 22 Model Inc Portfolio has LNF at a 'B' whereas the 3 Sep 21 Report on LNF is 'B+'. Plse confirm LNF is a 'B+'. Also, if you were to write a report on LNF today would you be likely to maintain the 'B+'?
Thanks again

Q: Hello Peter and team,
What do you think of Cohen and Steers and Icahn Enterprises. i am just concerned of the high yield . Is this sustainable? I am looking at these for my RRSP where the dividends don't have tax implications until i withdraw funds.

Q: Happy Friday,

With the current dip and a further downside expected are there any income equities that you would classify as very attractive.

Looking for some new ideas. I have lots of banks, pipes, telcos, utilities, insurance cos, etc. but am not immune to buying more.

Anything in the US really strike you fancy?

Thanks very much and have a great weekend.
