Q: Have about $18.0 K U.S. that I would like to put to work for 30 to 40 months. Would appreciate suggestions - ETF or individual security. Sector not too relevant although, like most Cdn, investors, I am overweight financlals and resources. Keeping the funds in U.S., a mix of capital appreciation and reinvested dividends would be nice. Thanks for all the 5i Team do and a shout out to all the members whose thoughtful questions have helped me in recent years.

Q: Bell used to be known as the orphans and widows stock, so I purchased some for the dividend which was better than a GIC at the time thinking that Bell was a fairly secure and stable stock.
Now I am under water by quite a lot and wondering what to do with it. How long do you think it will take to recover at least some of its losses. The dividend is good but if it keeps going down, then the dividend is not much good.
Is it a hold or a sell?
If it is a sell, what is a good replacement?
I am a senior.
Thanks for all your help.

Q: Hi,

Assuming the conversion from a trust into a corporation, and if you were holding the shares, what would you do as it pertains to the offer @$37 prorated based on the current trust holders choice. At a minimum one will get a third of their units in cash, and the balance is new shares. Would you take the money now and buy back the corresponding shares once the dust has settled? I don’t see the share price maintaining $37 over the short term, if it would, it should already be there.

Your thoughts?

Q: I am assuming that the recent increase in weight of BEP.UN (Income Portfolio) is also an endorsement to accumulate BEPC since they are supposedly “equivalent”. EPS forecasts for BEPC appear as grim as for BEP.UN, with increasing losses forecast for ’24 and ’25. In a recent Q&A on BEP.UN it was stated EBITDA is more relevant than EPS since it’s a limited partnership. BEPC is not a limited partnership so should it be valued differently? I don’t recall ever seeing a stock begin to trend up in the face of falling 2-year EPS forecasts. 5i has cited the expected decline in rates as a catalyst, but there must be other factors contributing to the rising stock price - perhaps rising revenue, confidence in management, …?

Q: Hi All at 5i! I have 44K in CPD in a non registered account which provides me monthly income via dividends. I prefer a stock which pays a decent dividend but also offers some growth. I would like to sell my CPD which has given me no growth and reinvest in better growth/ dividend paying stocks. Could you offer me the names of 5 such stocks?.
Cheers,
Tamara
