Q: Why do pipelines, such as PPL, ENB and ENF, have been sold off so aggressively in the last while? Any particular reasons? Since Keystone XL has been revived would it not give the pipeline sector a boost?

Q: Hi peter
What your thinking on the long closure on this acquisition June 2018.
The sub receipts are income until then and what about being accretive do we have to wait till next year to see any results from the acquisition and div increase?
This seems to be a very complex scenario wonder if should cut and run.
Kind Regards
Stan

Q: Just a comment to Mike re: TDWaterhouse and the Altagas dividend. TDW rounds off to even cents on its quick quote screen, so ALA's actual dividend rounds up to $0.18 and is reported as such (the dividend received by the investor is accurate). I have also found that sometimes they include a special one-time dividend/distribution in the rolling figure, which can significantly reduce the accuracy of the reported figure. If you find a stock of interest, best to check the company website to confirm the actual dividend payment.
Q: My question is more a general. I am looking at the Tdwaterhouse investments site and I am wondering how they calculate the dividend rate. The company that leads to this question is ALA who's listed dividends are .18 per month or $2.16 /year. The share price was $30.46 and the dividend rate listed is posted as 6.89%.
My calculation would be 2.16/30.46 = 7.09%. Why the difference? Their rate does adjust with the price changes. Does their rate reflect dividends paid in the last year and hence not include dividend increase part way through year or going forward.
As an investor I am interested in the dividend rate going forward. What am I missing. When should dividend increase be reflected.
Thank you again for your excellent service. ps kwh is of to a great start.

Q: Why are these subscription receipts trading below the common shares? They receive the same dividend and if deal doesn't close, you get $31.00 back. Am I missing something?

Q: Good morning
I was wondering what are your thoughts on Hudson Bay company (HBC). I know retailers are hurting now, is HBC a good value right now? I Recently heard that hbc property holdings are worth quite a bit and that HBC maybe spinning off REIT? What are your thoughts on this and HBC taking over MACY'S.
If HBC is not good, do you have an alternative you recommend?

Q: Hi 5i: I split my investing between a number of different portfolios. One is a dividend reinvesting portfolio focused on dividend growers - all Canadian at the moment. My holdings consist of the usual suspects, big companies covering banks, telecoms, pipes, and utilities. I added a small position in Crius a few days ago, but I want to diversify some more. Any suggestions? I have no industrials, bio/health, consumer or info tech. I could include US stocks if necessary. If you would make a few suggestions I would appreciate it. Many thanks.
Q: Yesterday BNN guest suggested TRP.PR.K to use as a saving account as it is a reset with a minimum 4.5% reset or better. For those of us with excess cash do you recommend using this security as an alternate to a MMF?

Q: I'm starting to question why I should keep holding-on to "Peyto" for its 4.7% dividend. Natural gas lost of lot of ground and Equity Clock shows that seasonally it goes much lower during the end of summer. What concerns me the most is this: Could PeyTo be impacted by Trump's BAT? GameHost has a 5% dividend. If what I want is income and insulation from the Trump's trade war, is that a smart switch?
Q: Your thoughts please on these 3 companies.
Thank you

Q: In a follow-up to my question in regards to the ex dividend date for a dividend payout I would like to thank Mike for clarifying the drip portion of the dividend payout. My question now is what do you mean by on the day of the ex dividend that the stock does not trade with the dividend. On that day does the stock have a lower or higher price? or if you sell it on that date you don't get the dividend. Thanks.
