Q: I have been looking for high yield stocks with low volatility, where I am less interested in capital gains. OCS.UN has a 10 per cent yield and a beta of 0.20. It has lost a fair amount since 2015 but seems to have stabilized. I realize that its financials are opaque, but Onex claims that the shares are undervalued. What is your opinon on OCS.UN? Thank you.

Q: I have held shares of TCT.UN for the dividend in an RESP for quite a few years--currently not up to my ACB but I am wondering if you think it is worth adding in this environment. Other than a small position in SLF, which is an overlap, TCT.UN is my only holding in this sector.
Q: Could I have your views on this security. The yield sounds to good to be true. Seems heavy energy, your thoughts on a fixed income portfolio would be appreciated.
Q: DO you know any reason for the daily downturn of the last few weeks and the big drop today.
how would you rate this stock for investing purposes?

Q: HiPeter, what is your opinion of Brookfield Global Listed Infrastructure Income Fund Inc., (INF)for retirees? There is not much information on this fund on the financial websites. Is this a new fund or has it existed for some time?
Q: Would you revise your opinion of this etf? On October 3, 2016, 5i wrote, "We note that 15 years ago the share price was more than $26, and capital distributions will continually lower NAV over time."
While share price is still only $17, it is paying nearly 10% dividend consistently since 1999 and the share price has increased 40% since the advice was given. I like that it holds mainly U.S. banks. Thank you for your opinion.

Q: ,,It is almost similar to a private equity firm where the investments will need time to grow in value and then the holding company may need to do something (sell, IPO, etc,) to actually realize the value and get some liquidity.,,
I do not understand your comment. I have a 60% gain. I can sell now and realize the profit. What do I don't know?

Q: Hi
What impact, if any, would rising interest rates have on DFN share price. I like it for income. Would this be a good time to add to a position?
Thanks for all you do

Q: What do you think of this fund for a long term hold? It seems to hold small private tech companies and hold them through going public or being bought by a larger entity. I read somewhere that there is huge demand for small and medium sized Canadian tech companies.

Q: I'm looking to add income in a RIF account,the yield on BGI.UN currently 8%+ do you think that this is sustainable over a 4/5 year time frame I'm looking at a 3% position in the portfolio.
Q: Hi Peter and Team
I'm looking for some reliable income that isn't from common share dividends. I currently have no exposure to bonds. What's your opinion of this mutual fund for that asset class? The MER seems a bit rich and I'm struggling to see how they can deliver a yield of 7.89% on floating rate bonds.
Thanks
Peter
