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

Q: Hello Peter....Since recently signing up for 5iR, I'm doing more homework as like trying to guess your response to questions. About the comparison of PPL and ENB, I looked on the free Bloomberg site for info and it shows ttP/E as 34.5 and 85.0, respectively and then forward P/E as 32.0 and 23.9. And you mentioned ENB is cheaper. When doing a comparative analysis, what are the reason for using the forward P/E rather than the trailing ratio? Also what accounts for the significant difference between trailing and forward P/Es? Exit question: For these two companies, Bloomberg doesn't show PEG ratios. (?) What "weight" do you place/give to this ratio for analysis purposes?.........Enjoy a deep freeze week-end....Tom M

Q: I'm currently holding Loblaws. It represents about 5% of my portfolio. If was just purchased a few months ago. I'm a long term investor. Do you think it's worth holding for 5 years plus. If not can you recommend another in this sector. I think this is a great site and love the job the staff at I5Reseach are doing. I read this site daily.
