Q: This firm is in an interesting space from a demographic perspective. Their numbers seem solid. However, although apparently an o.k. firm, are they a good investment? I am otherwise 90% invested in blue chip, dividend paying equities. Thanks!

Q: Hi,
I was wondering if you can give your opinion on DRA.UN. It trades at a significant discount to NAV and don't really have any analyst coverage. It seems to be an interesting way to diversify from regular stocks and bonds.

Q: What do you anticipate for the 4th Quarter report for this REIT ? After a steady decline in price in 2014, the past 3 months shows a steady price around $4.00. This stock is rated 8 out of 10 by Thompson Reuters, and there has been strong insider buying over the past year. Yet most analysts rank it as a hold due to high payout. Your call ?

Q: Thank you for your cautionary note in your reply to my REITs question. May I assume you meant AX.UN - Artist - as one of your recommendations?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Q: REIT pricing looks especially attractive after today's price declines. I have six REITs that I purchased six years ago and would like to hold them for life. Now, I am looking at adding to my weighting to bring it to 15% from 10%. I know there may be minor further damage when rates rise but the average dividend is now well over seven percent. What do you think and which would be your top three names in this environment? Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter et al.
I have got my research done on tmc vs ai,however,there seems to be some disagreement on how rising int rates will affect MICS. I am told by some pundits that rising rates will allow them to command a wider spread, hence more profit. Others claim
investors will move to other places. The same with reits. Your
comments please? Also would you comment on Ivanhoe Mines. The sun rises and sets on it according to your o;ld colleague RICK
RUlE. Also please comment on KOBEX CAPITAL- PAUL VAN EDEN.23 mil mkt cap cash 35 mil. Phoscan chemical LOts of cash but done nothing for years.
THANKS FOR EVERYTHING

Q: HI TEAM
I am interested in adding some REITS to portfolio. I own none presently.
1. is this a good time to look at REITS ?
2. How would Bank of Canada changes in interest rates affect sector (the 5i mantra seems to be that earnings and interest rates are the key to looking a company.
3. based on data base you have access to can you classify the following according to the 3 most important metrics to look at for this sector (what are the metrics ? and their values) I think these 3 are the best looking but have trouble with confidence in globe and mail data
HR.UN-T
D.UN-T
AX.UN-T
how would you rank these 3 or do you think others are better from a "value" or safer (maintaining dividend point of view) ?
many thanks
Ernie
by the way, if I understood from my readings on REITS, I am more tax advantaged to hold them in a registered account than an open account ??

Q: Hi Peter and team, how would rate Boardwalk compare to Chartwell CHS.un and HR.un? Thanks, Gervais
Q: Could you please tell me what you see when you 'screen' MTGE? When I look at the fundamental data and ratios on the TD Direct Markets & Research screen, they seem fine. I'm no pro, so am I missing something here? 14% yield. 84% payout ratio. $1B market cap. Besides using a service such as 5i, what else can a retail investor do to determine if a stock is "decent" or "junk".
Thank you
Thank you
Q: I have a comment and question. Comment: I appreciated hearing 5i recommending the purchase of Enbridge ENB for a U.S. investment. I don't feel confident about any company in the way I feel confident about the top 5i recommendations. Canadian-based companies that I believe are viewed highly by 5i and that trade on the U.S. exchanges include OTC, STN, BAM, BEP, ENB, FSV, BNS, SLF, GIL, Telus, DSG, Goldcorp, and more. A list can be found at http://www.superstockpicker.com/canadian_US_stock_symbols.html
Question: The one U.S. company I feel a personal connection with is Macerich MAC, as I knew the founder and remember in the early 80s when he was complaining that Wall Street gave him no respect! That's since changed. But I knew he was a good guy and I feel confident about the culture of the company. They own shopping centers. Do you have a comment on MAC? Thank you.
