Q: I'm looking at CanWel building materials to add in my dividend portfolio. It will pay a juicy dividend at the end of this month and with all the houses needed to be rebuild in Fort Mcmurray I think this might give a boost to there earnings this summer. What is your thought on my thinking?

Q: Being retired I like the idea of funds that use covered calls to boost dividends. I have a limited amount of these funds because I do not want to miss the upside. However, if you assume that, in general, valuations are stretched right now, would the attractiveness of these funds not increase? In addition they are a natural source of diversification.
This question was prompted by a recent response to a question on DFN. My RBC website shows a monthly dividend yield of 10 cents or 11 % annually. Am I correct to assume that this is a calculation based on history and that if I bought this fund now, the actual distribution I will get will depend on a number of market factors and there is no way to actually predict it.
Thanks in advance and congratulations to Ryan.

Q: I like the cash flow from utilities and Transalta seems to be getting a handle on the new operating environment in Alberta. RNW is approx 60% owned by TA and that would mean the market is pricing TA only for it's share of RNW and assigning no value to the rest of TA business. Are my assumptions correct and if so do you have any idea why this would be so. Thanks

Q: Hi: You previously made a comment on LFE in Nov 2016 about this Insurance company group. It has now paid a Dividend for 4 consecutive months. The effective yield is over 18%. Do you think this will last? What may cause this to stop paying a dividend, like it did a few years ago? Has your overall opinion changed. Thanks. Ken ....

Q: Hello 5i team:
I understand that there are some issues regarding the lending practices of Home Trust and Equitable Trust. I understand that there some advisories to avoid adding new funds to these HISAs. Are their High Interest Savings Accounts-HISA-safe? I presume 100k CDIC safety net applies. Should one move the money anyway out of these HISA?
What are the other safer alternatives?
Many thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,
I know you're not huge fans of Veresen as a stock pick. For fixed income, would you have any concerns with buying a 3.43% bond maturing Nov. 10/21 with the intention to hold it to maturity? I see it is rated BBB. Many thanks. Michael
