Q: Have held Sienna for about 4 years, and despite some ups and downs, currently have some decent capital gains on top of the nice dividend. I have been considering selling it, but now notice there is a new issue. Could you comment on the purpose of the new issue and if you consider Sienna a hold or sell. This is in an RSP, so no tax implications.
Thank-you

Q: Hello 5i, I own Crew in a cash acct and TOU in my RSP acct I think if I take the shares they would go into the RSP acct but not sure as I do not want more shares in my RSP. Could you comment as to if Crew shares will pay a dividend or special dividend ?
I would like your opinion as to sell Crew shares now or wait to see if TOU shares increase in value over the next 2 month's.

  • View SPB Profile
  • View Questions on SPB

Q: I am an income investor. Can you please explain, with falling interest rates, the risks associated to making a significant bet on Superior Plus Company (SPB). From my reading, the 9% dividend is well covered by earnings and the debt, though significant, is coming down. The company is making money with a largely captive audience and the day to day share price is largely irrelevant to me. With a 5 year, plus, horizon, I don’t get the low share price. Is this a poor man’s Enbridge?

Thanks for the help!!

NTR,T,MG? I own these blue chip laggards. can you recommend them as BUY,HOLD, or SELL please. If any are a sell, could you suggest a few replacement names (CDN) with similar dividend yield and more (hopefully) share price growth potential? I am fine holding all for long term if you think the weakness is just cyclical.
cheers, Chris
