Q: The BEP.UN/BEPC combo has been on life support entering 2021. It seems the entire renewable energy sector is in the same boat. Can you recommend other similar type of companies or sector I can consider a transfer? Perhaps the electric generators or electric utilities with similar yields and growth prospects? Thanks.

Q: Hi, what does Return on Equity can tell us? Is it an efficient indicator of stock long-term performance? e.g. MO's ROE is very high as 149%, but stock price is flat for many years, could you explain why? BTW, should I use ROA instead of ROE? Thank you for your great service!

Q: I have a small profit on KEY but I've been disappointed in the lack of growth recently and I was wondering if I could do better with PPL. Yields are about the same but I would prefer more growth. I already have lots of ENB and TRP in a well diversified portfolio. Appreciate your thoughts.

Q: Hi team,
I bought Verizon two years ago in expectation of a stable price and a good dividend. Two years later it is down 11% eating up the dividend and leaving me essentially where I started. Would it make sense to sell VZ and use the funds to buy IBM which has a similar dividend and perhaps some growth potential? I can also claim the tax loss on Verizon.

Q: What do you see as the macro picture for utilities over the next couple of years? If inflation increases, does it affect the renewable power producers such as BEP and AQN 's input costs? Or is this more the case for coal/natgas power providers? Plus if interest rates rise to offset the inflation that is another headwind for utilities? Thoughts?
