Q: Shocking how this bank keeps underperforming its peers. As of this writing the only big Canadian bank in the red. Any cause for concern here? I like the dividend. But not if my capital erodes… I own this along with EQB and RY which have done fantastic so it’s not to bad. What is the payout ratio on BNS relative to its peers in Canada? Thanks.

Q: There have been increasingly persistent reports of provisions for consumer loan default by the banking industry; PRL is in the business. I doubt PRL earnings for the quarter just past - statement due shortly – will be affected but it might affect their outlook for the coming quarter(s). I think GSY found a way to deal with the issue although it had a very significant run down in ‘21/’22 and wondered if it was related and what PRL had or could do to address the issue and what you could bring to the table on that score. I look forward to your reply. Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i
TD Canada Trust has a net operating cash flow of -31,114,000 $. Its free cash flow is -33,078.000 $. The total dividends paid is 8,298,000 $. The total liability is 1,844,917,000$. Are we in trouble? I would tend to keep it if dividends hold, otherwise look for something else. I also have BNS and it seems to be recovering as is TD. As you keep advising, best policy is do nothing. Does this still hold for these? I have a ten year + time frame and am a value investor at 76 years young and do not now need ready cash.

Q: Hi 5i,
Interested on which you think will perform better in a crypto bull market? An ETF like IBIT or something like COIN? Also, the fact that I've warmed up to crypto should be a warning to everyone that it's going to fall. :)
TIA!

Q: Paul asked today if PRL's dividend has been increasing in proportion to its income increases, or are they increasing the payout ratio. In your answer, you mentioned the dividend is up by 30% compared to last year at this time, but you didn't compare this to the income increase. PRL had an 84% income increase in 2023 compared to 2022, and in Q1 of 2024, the income was up 77%, so in fact they have been DECREASING the payout ratio, as the income has been increasing at a much faster rate than the dividend.
