Q: At the current price level NFI is yielding a bit over 5%. Is this payout level sustainable? If so, would it be advantageous to pick up NFI as a yield stock and wait? Albeit, unlike most yield stocks, this is one with substantial upside potential. Your take please,

Q: Over the past 2 years I have slowly adjusted my portfolio to be more growth (overall return) focused as opposed to heavily dividend focused. I am considering selling EIF and purchasing WSP. WSP is a larger company with a higher valuation which I'd be okay with as long as I'm paying for a better company with higher growth prospects. Your thoughts, please.

Q: Hi,
In your answer to Cliff on January 14, you mention WSP as having a 10% annual dividend growth over 10 years. It is not the case, WSP does not have any dividend growth over 10 years.

Q: I currently have zero exposure to the Communications sector. Do you recommend having at least one company from this sector in one's portfolio, even it it already has other dividend-paying companies (BEP.un, SLF, CSH.un, etc)? What is your favourite Canadian company in this sector, and why? Do you suggest staying with a Canadian company to address this sector in one's portfolio, or would a US Communications company be a better option? Thanks in advance.
