Q: Hi Team,
I have a half position in CSH.UN. I like the space long term and was thinking of adding an equal weight position of SIA at this price.
Do you consider one better value than the other for dividend and share price growth or are they fully valued here? Is there much risk to the downside next 12-18 months?

Thank you

Q: Looking to bolster my income names. The pipelines/util are languishing near there lows and the price targets on the names are much higher not to mention the juicy dividends. They look really good on the surface.I have modest positions in TRP,ALA,VNR. ENB, BEPand IPL are also on my watch list. VNR is the one that has held up the best. All solid companies, But are these names good value at these levels, some still trading at high teen p/e . Or do the banks offer better risk reward?

Q: I have heard comments that higher yielding stocks such as utilities, reits, pipelines and banks are bond proxies that will decline in price substantially when interest rates rise because their yields will rise along with interest rates. Do you know what the historical relationship has been between higher yielding stocks and interest rates during previous rate increase cycles?

Thanks

Q: Hi Folks

My question relates to your October 28 response to Paul re: the likelihood of the SPB - CUS combination going through and the need for CUS to pay a big break fee if unsuccessful. In a report by RBC dated Nov 1 on SPB they stated that "We note that Superior Plus is taking full regulatory approval risk and would be liable for a $25 million reverse termination fee if it is unsuccessful in obtaining regulatory approval." So could you please clarify the situation re: the break fee and who pays in event the deal does not go through.

Thanks

Ross

Q: Hello - I try to diversify my portfolio best I can. However one concern I do have is not so much stock, or sector diversification. If I own a Brookfield portfolio of stocks (BEP.UN, BYP.UN, BIP.UN) that makes up 8% of my total portfolio, is it considered being too concentrated because of my weight in the Brookfield group?

Q: I've held this since IPO and have been happy to collect the dividend. Now the stock is trading bellow the IPO cost that I paid and I am wondering if I should sell or continue to hold. Is there much more downside risk from here and are there any positives that will help the company to increase revenues and earnings in the next 12 months.
