Investment Q&A

Q: May I please have your opinion on DR for a 2 year hold.

Q: I have managed my own registered portfolio for the past few years(with valuable input from 5i). I have sold my GTA house and will have this house money during a 2 year relocation period and then will likely be buying real estate again. Any advice for managing registered vs. non-registered investments during that time. Also, any allocation ideas related to type of stocks, fixed income or other investments keeping in mind the two-three year time frame with the new money. I currently have a registered portfolio with a number of dividend payers. Am i better to switch the registered funds too a more growth oriented approach and buy some utilities/banks/telcos in the non-registered.
Also, are Canadian based ETF's that hold non-Canadian stocks eligible for the dividend tax credit?
Thanks team

Q: I own these shares in my portfolio for some growth and income. FTS has dropped sharply in the past couple days, instead gaining because of the deals they have done. I like to have your opinion as to how safe they are? Would I be better of trading them for ETFs like ZUT and ZWU as they seem less volatile. Perhaps you can suggest alternatives. I would also like your view weather to buy ENB or ENF or another pipeline stock. I like the new format, my apologies for my previous comment of finding confusing.
Many thanks, J.A.P, Burlington

Q: I sold all my energy and pipeline positions in early 2015 and currently have no such holdings. I am considering slowly re-entering this space. Do you think it is a good entry point for Ala, ppl and ipl? Any addition, deletions and modification would be appreciated. I am not adverse to risk. Thanks for all the good advice past, present and future.

Q: Can you help me understand Fortis's decision to divest a 20% stake in it's ITC acquisition for only $1.3B, or just 11.5% of the total acquisition price ($11.3B) for which Fortis is on the hook for. This seems like a bad deal to make...
Thanks

Q: Did Fortis make a good decision? I'm wanting to add to my current holdings with the current drop today but I'm wondering if I should hold off.

Q: Do you see any news for the drop today in RNW?

Q: What is your outlook for VNR's stockprice?
Its had a great run...time to sell some?

Q: did Fortis get what they were looking for the ITC shares it sold to the Singapore sovereign wealth fund

Q: I have a large holding of AQN. Accountability Research Corporation, in a report dated April 15, considered AQN a SELL with a target price of only $9.50. That are your thoughts about that report.
I noticed that 5i recommended AQN today.
