Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have invested in AI and holding it for close to 1 year. I like this purely for income/dividend yield and stability of capital.
Recently there was a news that they are filing a base shelf prospectus.
Im concerned if this will dilute the value of my shares and dilute the dividend. How much of an impact will this have on the MIC price and the dividend earned? Please advise. Thank you.

Q: Do you think REIT's should be owned in ones portfolio? Does a 10% weighting seem to much? Also can you rate the following from best to worst as I am looking to get rid of one. GRT, REI and CRT.

Q: Good morning...thoughts on the Riocan news...I held RIOCAN for over 10 years and sold six months ago...I do not believe in retail REIT (for income) as a long term hold...I was interested though in the potential diversification away from retail...Do you think the capital appreciation will be there and potential growth in income...is it too early to jump back in? Thanks

Q: Do you believe Equitable Group is an atractive buy now with its P/E a low 5.6? I am of the opinion that there is to much debt in Canada right now and we could be in a position where many people will default on their mortgages in the next 2 years as real estate prices go down and wages remain stagnant. What do you think about the mortgage environment in Canada and do you think Equitable Group is a safe investment with big upside potential?

Q: Hi,

I'll be managing my spouse's account in the next month or so. One of the reasons we'll be managing it ourselves it is that our current manager does not take a balanced approach to portfolios, thus she has about a 25% weighting in REITs. Below are the REITs she holds, can you prioritize them in terms of what to hold or sell? Each of the below is between 2 and 4% of our portfolio value and we don't need the income.

Northwest Healthcare
BTB REIT
Extendicare
Dream Office
Northview Apt
Slate Office REIT
One REIT (which is being bought out I understand)

Thx.
