Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Essential Energy Services, ESN reported yesterday. Earnings per share missed estimates by 1 penny for the year. I hold this stock for the 4.5% dividend yield and expected 5 to 10% capital appreciation over the next two to three years. The balance sheet appears to be very strong and I assess the downside risk over the two to three years to be minimal. I would appreciate your assessment of my reasoning. Thanks for your help.

Q: I would like to know your assessment of the Coxe Global Agribusiness Income Fund. I am also puzzled about the statement that it is a "non redeemable"investment fund.What does that mean? The yield seems quite good. Should a senior be investing there? Thank you.

Q: Westshore Terminals, WTE, annouced a few months ago that they capped their dividend to complete some capital projects over the next few years. I am good with this being a shareholder ensuring the future and hopefully future dividend increases. No one expected much growth in the share but here it is up $8-9.00/ share since this announcement. This has grown into about a 7$ weighting in my portfolio.

Any idea what has driven this rise in share price and should I take a little off the table to get back to 5% weighting?

Thanks in advance and thanks to you, your staff and other members for information and answering questions.?

Q: Peter and 5I team, I think some of your members might enjoy the efforts of this blogger per Canadian dividends...

http://www.dividendgrowthinvestingandretirement.com/canadian-dividend-all-star-list/http://www.dividendgrowthinvestingandretirement.com/canadian-dividend-all-star-list/

"The Canadian Dividend All-Star List is comprised of Canadian companies that have increased their dividend for 5 or more calendar years in a row. I used the dividend record date to determine the length of streaks."

If you don't feel it's appropriate to be posting publically for fear of a whole whack of links to blogs etc; then I understand. Just felt it was worth it to share. There's lotza good blogs out there on dividend investing for sure. Thanks for creating 5I, it's been a blessing in disguise.

Q: Hi Peter & co,
I have funds to purchase GIC's in my fixed income section of my portfolio. The best rates I could find are with Manitoba Credit Unions. These rates range from 2.2% for 1 year to 3.15% for 6 years. I have done my due diligence on this issue. All funds are 100% insured, no limit to the insured funds. Are you able to comment on the subject.
Thank you,
Mike
