Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: My question is regarding value metrics for CPX. I compared EV/Revenue for the above utilities and CPX is lowest at 4.66, followed by FTS at 5.96. FTS has the lowest P/B at 1.49; CPX is the next best at 2.00. As an income/value investor, is CPX a value diamond in the rough? I know it keeps missing estimates, but I would get a yield of about 5.5% while waiting for financial results to improve. Your comments very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Q: Could you please provide your recommendation from a utility/energy investment standpoint. I have mentioned 3 possibilities here. Trying to gain insight around management effectiveness, leverage etc. For instance, FTS seems to have superior mgmt effectiveness from an ROE, and leverage standpoint, so is that considered superior or depends on investment objective as one is growth vs income oriented. In the end, looking for alternatives as I already own these, and Brookfield has performed very well so now over weighted. Thanks

Q: As a retiree, I invest in mostly growth stocks with little or no dividends in my non-registered accounts so as to manage my net income to avoid government clawbacks and high tax brackets. In doing my research, how can I find out how distributions and dividends being paid by a company will be taxed in the hands of shareholders? Do dividends from specific classes of purchased stocks taxed differently?
More specifically, how are the distributions from BAM.A and BEP.UN treated, and are any of these or other Brookfield stocks considered return of capital?
Any recommended reading in this area?
Thanks for your ongoing sound support.

Q: Its astonishing how similar the charts look alike for FTS, EMA and CU. They have had a good move. The charts on AQN and NPI look very similar to each other as well, however moving sideways. Why do you think AQN and NPI seem to be lagging FTS, EMA and CU? Best, Don

Within the telecommunication industry, I want to seek for companies that have good growth forecast, reasonable pricing, and mild volatility compared to peers. Dividends Not important. Among T, BCE, and QBR.b, which would be your preference and why, or is there another name you like better? Thanks.
