Melcor (MRD) stock price is down. Is this providing a good entry point or is there something fundamentally wrong? Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,

What is your opinion about NWH.UN as a long term RRSP investment for dividents and growth? I dont have any investments in the Health care sector, can you please suggest one or more names for growth (Canada or US stocks). Thanks very much. Shyam

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I had a question about FAM REIT, I realize it is small and a little higher risk. My question is with regards to their dividend is it sustainable now with the higher payout ratio and what about for the long term?

Q: Cominar REIT (CUF.UN)

Hi Team,

This is a follow up question after your reply today about Cominar's purchase of new assets yesterday. I see this morning CUF.UN is down ~1.23% suggesting the market doesn't like the deal so much. I was wondering if it's because the cap rate for the new properties is 6.5% but CUF.UN's dividend is 7.64%, suggesting the payout ratio of 74.81% would have to rise or the dividend would have to decrease all other things being equal. Is this a correct interpretation or am I off base? Your advice and knowledge is greatly appreciated and is helping me to learn so much. Cheers. Michael

Q: Concerning Tricon (TCN). You commented on an earlier question that the housing market in the US was strengthening and that Canadian lumber companies were showing increases from this. I also noticed that a large home builder in the US, Pulte Homes, has shown recent strength as well. My question is why Tricon stock does not seem to be participating in this rebound. Are their projects still too far off or perhaps the rental market not improving. Really appreciate your insights.

Q: HLP as a share owner - am I correct that there is no option but to take cash; it seems we are not offered shares in the US REIt; and, if so, why not just sell now - I self-invest so have no advisor to handle a tender.

Q: Re: HLP.UN I have read question/answer by Allan on Aug 18.
Your guidance was - "you need to tender your shares to the deal".
I'm a "new" investor. I own some of this stock. I don't understand what I need to do in this situation. Would you kindly provide further guidance.
