Q: I am considering purchase of one of the following 3, CTC, BNS, LB.
If one were to analyze the decision to purchase one of the 3 according to dividends only.
The question is spending 100 000 dollars to purchase any given one of the 3 today, along with the following assumptions, hold x 10 years, no dividend cuts and ongoing ANNUAL dividend growth at present rate (based on present dividend and last years' dividend growth)
CTC present dividend 1.038 dividend growth last year 13 %
BNS present dividend 0.87 and dividend growth last year 5.9%
LB present dividend 0.65 and dividend growth last year 4.2%
At the end of 10 years, WHAT WOULD MY DIVIDEND FOR EACH be in dollars ?
(I can't seem to get the math right and can't find a website calculator to help me.)
Your opinion about the PROS AND CONS of my approach to dividend investing would also be welcome.

Q: I have been ignoring my RSP for years now , and I will have to do the Riff conversion in 2 years. I have a collection of failed stocks and $200,000 in cash sitting in 1 1/2% interest cash in my RSP .Yesterday I committed to buying the NPI offering , but my broker says I can change that to my margin acct or TFSA if I do it right away . If I clean it up , what equity names might you suggest for my RSP and where should the NPI go ? With 5% yield , is it an income stock ?
Thankyou ...

Q: Hi
Please help me with a 100,000 foot scan of the telco space. The hypothesis is the Cdn. Telcos are extremely vulnerable to the combined threat of cord cutting and streaming. Customers cancel cable, stream their entertainment with unlimited choice via ROKU. Telcos suffer. Our nice dividend growers fade.
Is it too soon to sell? Appreciate your take.
Thanks Frank

Q: Further to my question about undervalued Canadian dividend paying "blue chip" equity, what do you think of Canadian Tire?
1. Does it fit the above criteria, if not why
2.Present value, is P/E the right way of assessing
3.Immediate risk of further decline for CTC specifically or its' sector
thank you
Ernie

Q: Hello,
Most of our Cdn equities are individual blue-chip dividend stocks and our US equities (25%) are mostly SPY. Those are doing ok I guess, though together only slightly better than our GIC's to be frank. Two of our holdings, which we've held for close to a decade, are still not good as noted below. When I asked about these before, I think you recommended continued patience as has our IA too. Your thoughts at this time please?
Holding Book Value Market Value DRIP
CIX $30k $16k Yes
MFR.UN $181k $154k ?

Q: Hi 5i, I currently have 3 U.S. stocks now. Bank of America, Jpmorgan and Pfizer. Would like to add 1 or 2 more, thinking along the lines of a stock like Aqn ( just the quality doesn’t have to be in the category) just to let you know I’m up 117% on Aqn because of your recommendation sometime ago. So looking for decent growth, nice dividend and my time horizon is very long term.
Thx
Gerry

Q: why the sudden drop in past month
Q: I am wondering why the secondary offering is about 10% below the closing price of the shares? That seems like a huge discount, much larger than most secondary offerings. Why such a large discount? And do you think this will have an impact on the share price going forward (after the closing, assuming it does close)?
