Q: Hi 5i,

I would like to buy one of these ETF's for income within a TFSA.
Could you comment on them and provide your preference in order.

I'm leaning towards MFT for the large distribution.

Q: Results look good to me. I currently hold a 4% weighting.
I have a long time frame and high risk tolerance. If the stock performs well is it ok to carry to a 7% weighting before rebalancing.
2nd question is I like to set targets like 7% above and let the target dictate rather then the emotion that may play in the moment.
3rd question is 7% to high.
My overall comfort perfect portfolio target is 4% but I know there is times to overweight. When I do overweight I prefer it be less speculative which I consider Aqn to fit.
Thanks
John

Q: I am retired living off dividend income. I am tempted to add 1/4 position to an already full position of BCE as the price is now looking very attractive at 53.2/share yielding 5.7%.
53 has been the support base since April 2016 and 60 has been the resistance.
Has anything fundamentally changed with BCE to explain the drop in price? Or is it simply because interest rates are rising so the market is rotating from higher yielding stocks?
Would you add at the current price, or wait until BCE forms a base as it is still in a downtrend looking at the 8, 20, 50 day moving averages?

Q: I have a 3/4 position in AD...surely this market reaction today (-6%) on top of yesterdays -5% is overdone. Even if it does take 1-2 quarters to prove themselves to investors, the dividend looks safe, with a 90% payout ratio. Why not just keep collecting the now 9+% dividend while we wait!!! Awfully tempting to top up to full position in the next few days. Make sense?

Thanks...Steve

Q: Peter,

Could you please advise whether ala.r still makes more sense as an investment than ala. Correct me if I've got anything wrong here: Given the share price difference between when receipts were issued ($31) and today's share price (~$25). If the WGL merger fails, one gets the $31, right? If it succeeds, one gets equivalent shares in ala which appears to be making a decent recovery in share price. Meanwhile, one collects the ~9% dividend.

The only downside I see to ala.r versus ala is that the bid/ask spread is wider (is this because it trades more thinly). In this case, do you recommend a limit order?
