Q: I already own Enbridge and it is a large holding in my non-rrsp and I am wondering if Valener would be okay for a LIRA account or are these 2 stock similar?

Thanks

Q: The consensus seems that bond funds will tank when rates rise. I own a chunk of PH&N High Yield Bond Fund and an ETF Bond Fund - XHY. It seems to me that the active managers will position themselves for a rate rise so how do you see these two reacting when the inevitable day comes>
Thank you.

Q: With CU being at a 52 week low and it's long history of raising dividends, I am wondering your comments on purchasing a small position mainly for income. Stability, and increasing dividends are a goal. We do own FTS and EMA, TRP and PPl and wondered if adding CU would give some worthwhile diversification within the utility space? Are there risk factors of concern?
The continuing education I am getting through 5i is so very helpful. Thanks, Len

Q: Hello. I presently hold a fairly diversified range of stocks, most of which would be viewed as blue chip companies. However I'm concerned that I may be overweight in the pipeline/utility sector, where I have Key, ALA, TRP, IPL and PPL. In combination these would represent about 19% of my portfolio. Do you think I'm overweight in this sector, and if so, can you suggest which stock or stocks I should sell.

Thanks for the help.

Q: I am building an income portfolio to live fully off the dividends and therefore am mainly interested in yield in quality companies and not capital gains. What are your thoughts on investing 10% each into ETO.US (Y8.72%) and EOI.US(Y7.52%) to make up up 20% USD of my income portfolio?

Q: Today, Scotia upgraded Power Corp's price target to 38. Considering it's at 32, its last quarter was better than usual and the PE of 10x, I then look at technicals on TD Waterhouse. Short-term signals are more bearish than bullist (9 versus 5). I scratch my head...
How can I know if technicals are worth considering when deciding to buy a stock? Are there a few signals you always look at? Maybe resistance levels (setting limit buy orders right above a support)? I'm not a day trader, but I would like to use technicals if on average it gives me better prices.

Q: I'm trying to evaluate the assertion I heard that when interest rates rise, dividend-paying stocks will get hammered because they have been overbought due to the "TINA" effect ("there is no alternative" for income).

If it is a sound company that's in a good business and will have no problem paying its dividend, my understanding is that the way the yield would be brought more in line with bonds is the share price would go up, not down. Am I wrong? What reasons would there be for the price to go down?
