Q: I'm overweight financials and thinking of selling my US holding BAC and ORI and switching to a US dividend ETF such as DGRO. Any other suggestions?

Q: I’m considering Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (BIP.UN) for my TFSA as a means of diversifying from common shares while maintaining a return above current fixed income rates. Would you recommend the current price of $54.92 as a reasonable entry point or is there a valuation point that you would be more suitable considering that I would also like to ensure potential growth? Alternatively, is there another security you would consider in order to achieve my goals.

Q: Hello 5i
I've not been impressed with CDZ's performance of late. I see that you keep recommending it even though their fees are higher due to better diversification. I believe they've been hurt recently by one large holding that went south, AGF I think. I'm puzzled by all this so what advice do you have? Is there alternative in this segment for a long term hold?

Thanks for the service

Q: Most of my equities are individual dividend DRIP stocks. I'm mulling switching to non-drip because I would like much more clarity in terms of the dividend $ our stocks generate and how the basic stock price is performing. Your thoughts please?

Q: I come across two high yield U.S. REITs - NLY and AGNC that provide yields over 11%. Do you know anything about them? How does these two compare? If you have to pick one which would be your choice? Are there any special tax consideration in investing in U.S. REITs? Thanks.

Q: Please comment on the recent downgrade TRP received from Moody's citing TRP's weak financial profile to Baa1. Debt to EBITDA is expected to be 5x in 2019, ENB is about the same. Moody's downgraded ENB to just above junk about a year ago to Baa3. It would seem Moody's feels 5x EBITDA is not good, Shouldn't we avoid these companies?

Q: Information only. I inquired about KWH.UN's final dividend and share tender dates yesterday and here is their reply today.

Hi Larry,
Crius and Vistra are on track to close. Shareholder approval was received as well as other required approvals. However, there is one last approval required that we are currently awaiting on from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Once received from FERC, the closing will occur no later than the fifth business day after such approval, at which time the final distribution will be paid. Our regulatory counsel have advised us that FERC approval should be received shortly, and no later than end of April.
