Investment Q&A

Q: Have owned this for a few months --basically at a break even on growth but enjoying a 13% Div---would like to buy more but cant figure them out.
Paid 182 consecutive Divs--invest in banks and insurance-preffereds and common paying around 5% or less---write covered calls.Really not that volatile except for Fall of 2018
How do they pay 13%?

Q: Was there not scheduled $0.21 dividend payment on the 17th. I have not seen it in my account. Did I get it wrong and do you ave any news as per dividend and closing of sale of KWH.UN
thanks

Q: I own a substantial amount of Cumulative Redeemable FIXED RATE Reset First Preference Series M Cumulative shares, which I purchased for the initial price of $25.00 per share. I also purchased additional shares at a later date for around $20.00

The Series M shares can be converted into series N Cumulative Redeemable FLOATING RATE First Preference Shares on December 1. 2019 My question is:
Since today's value of the series M shares is around $16.60, What will be the price of the new Series N Shares? Does that mean an instant gain (RECOVERY) of $8.40 (to $25.00) after conversion to the series N shares or how does that work? Do you have any suggestions about how to act at the given time, including what to choose? Do I stay with my FIXED RATE shares, do I convert to the FLOATING RATE shares or what?
Thank you for your prompt and valued reply.

Q: I, with a 10 year mandated hold, had planned to purchase IPL based on its dividend, depressed price and the potential of its polypropylene project. However your commentary on the company has caused me to reconsider. Would you please give me your preferred 'total-return' stocks in the pipeline/processing sector and the downside to IPL as a long term hold?
With appreciation

Q: Hey, I would like to compare the relationships between short position on these two companies? From this question board the short on Bad in March 2018 was about 7.8 million shares. What is Bad's current short position? Bad share value today has increased dramatically. Eif share price has shown a substantial increase YTD and is at about a two years high. What is the short on Eif today?
I realize the only thing in common they have beside being heavily shorted is they both pay a dividend and have also been bashed by God's gift to all things Canadian, who has been wrong on so many of his calls. He has now taken to pumping stocks. Thanks for all your support eh. Regards

Q: I bought shares in IPL in 2007 at $9.70. The current yield, based on my purchase price is 16%. I am thinking I should sell but find it difficult to do so given the yield on this stock. What would you recommend in a situation like this?

Q: good morning:
enbridge dropping quite a bit again and hitting 3 month lows. realize this is about bad news always from new pipelines being postponed. do you have any idea how much of enbridges income is regulated and would you say that dividend is safe and will grow even with all the pipeline delays; but I know they have steady income coming in from sources and this is what I meant if you know how much it is as a percentage of revenue. I thought it was something in the order of over 80% but not sure.
hope you understand what I am saying and feel free to change question so everyone understands [brain fart]
