Investment Q&A

Q: Acadian Timber (ADN) has come up on my radar. In your assessment, how safe is it's dividend?

Q: Is it true that Telus's dividend has not been covered between 2020-22 and won't be for the following two years?

Other than the benefits of both this sector's limited competition in our country and
this government's immigration policy that has been put in place, are there any other reasons why Telus holds a relatively large PE valuation relative to the single digit PE's of both AT&T and Verizon?

Q: why is Batex dropping so much? it used to be over $ 5.7
per share, it was E Nuttal's favorite (of his many)

is it a good entry point ?
now below $ 5
2-3 years hold time span

thanks

Michael

Q: Which do you prefer between these two for a 10 year hold and rational?
I hold BEP and wondering if I should switch to FTS.
Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

BIP.UN is in utilities sector in G&M and on your website. You have mentioned you have a preference to it versus BEP. Your favourite utilities when asked are usually BEP, FTS and H?
How would you rank it if ranked with the other 3?

Thanks for all you do

Q: What would your top three utility picks be today for income and some capital appreciation?

Q: Down 15% on EIF in a cash account. Trying to decide if I should sell for a tax loss and rebuy in the new year...or if the stock will rally in the run up to Christmas. Your thoughts please on whether I should sell/rebuy and - if so - what you would use as a proxy. Thank you.

Q: Do you think PPL would be a decent buy and hold considering it might buy into the trans mountain pipeline.

Q: Hi there,

Any thoughts on when DFN might resume its’ distribution?
If and when interest rates decline do you see a return to a higher price?

Thanks.

Q: Curious about yields. It feels like the yield on ETF XHY remains around the level it was several years ago (~6%) despite other stocks yielding much higher returns. Shouldn't those ETF holdings (high yield corporate bonds) be ticking upwards too which should drive the ETF yield higher? Maybe there is a time-delay as they have to reset?

So with various stock yields as high as they are I would like to try to benefit from the yields AND set up for capital gains on the same stocks that *should* pop as interest rates normalize and fall a bit. What are 3 CAD and 3 USD stocks that fit the bill? (High current yield AND good likelihood to strong share price increase in 1-3 years.) And where would ENS fit relative to those suggestions?

Q: For a "safe dividend stocks " strategy perspective, I noticed that those 2 stocks in my portfolio have reached a relatively low point (no loss),is it then time to 1)"average up " , 2)to wait and see,or3) eventually to sell in case of a new situation?

Q: hi, can I get your current thoughts on CSW.A at this time. do you suspect it could start to move up in price with small caps soon? or are people not drinking their "spirits" so much anymore ( large capital depreciation over time ). do you have any other suggestions in the consumer defensive sector (cdn or us) with a good sized dividend and a better growth profile? cheers, chris

Q: What is your opinion of ENS.to( E Split Corp) for income. Is the dividend sustainable?. Tank you. Cheers

Q: Hi,

I am wondering what your thoughts are on CIX. Do you think the shares can get to $30.


Is BNS a buy at current levels?


Is it likely for interest rates to fall? If so, what would be some stock ideas to take advantage of a lower interest rate?

Thanks!

Q: Please identify your 5 top equity CDN bond proxies that pay north of a 5% dividend where you believe the dividend is safe plus there is room for growth in the stock price.

Q: All other things being equal would you switch from Chevron to Canadian Natural resources?
