Q: Ernie's May 22 question on TDB621 Mortgage Fund had me investigate the numbers: 12 month return with risk 1.36/current yield 2.1/MER 1.82. A well kept secret at TD is their ISA-Investment Savings Account- TDB8150 currently paying 1.25% with no risk. There is no info online about it, you have to call and ask, but you can buy and sell it online min $1000, the only catch is it takes 1 to 2 days notice to buy and sell but it is guaranteed. I use it in cash and registered accounts. The US$ TDB 8152 pays 0.2%.
Q: WMB NYSE-what do think about me buying this one for my USD portfolio? I do not own any CDN equivalents as they look very expensive. They plan on > dividend by 20% ea over the next 3 years. They have bought two complimentary companies recently as well which should increase cash flow etc. However metrics looks awful: very high debt, high Payout ratio etc.
Q: I am a long term investor looking for div growth with some capital appreciation. I took a position a few years ago in ZWU for the high yield. The yield has been decreasing and price is range bound. It is now at the high end of the range and am considering selling and taking a position in INE which looks to have some good growth (both capital and Div) in its future with new projects in the works. Your thoughts!
Q: ZUB is one of my major holdings. It has been doing quite well. I don't know when is the time to take profile. Please tell me what signal to look for.
I also hold ENB. Is 20+X valuation too high for this stock? Should I take profile?
Q: Hi,

Q: my question is regarding Altagas (ALA-T). i purchased it for a core position in my son's account at about $25 and needless to say i'm very happy about the results. the way i understand things is that substantial "ebitda" should occur in the next several years.some of their contracts are very lucrative, long term and inflation protected.i guess management performance will be key to ensure these projects are properly executed . another concern i have is "when" interest rates do rise (and i realize that may several years away), would't a stock like ALA would get lambasted in that environment ? so finally, i'm thinking of buying more, what are your likes and dislikes about this stock. thanx norm
