Investment Q&A

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

Q: About 3 months ago you provided a report on IPP.UN. By all accounts things looked favourable and it appealed to me thinking it was defensive but since then it has decreased about 15%. I recall a comment from you since then, suggesting the Gov't bringing in rent controls had a negative impact. Where do you see things going for IPP.Un from here?
I also have BIP.UN. Do you see it as defensive?
If I want to raise some cash, which would be better to keep? Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: Hi,

Please rank these REITs for relative distribution safety and eventual share price recovery.

Is there one in particular that you'd get rid of?

Thanks,

Gord

Q: Have owned these two In my TFSA since October 2019. Since COVID they have not recovered to my cost. DIR has almost got back to break even, But IIP is still lagging. I’m thinking that I should keep DIR but possibly sell IIP. What are your thoughts on these two companies and if I did sell one what would you suggest is a good replacement. Does not have to have a dividend. But have been interested in renewable stocks. Any suggestions. I realize there are several questions here and please takeoff however many credits you deem necessary.

Q: We are retired, primarily income investors. We did hold relatively equal positions in SRU,un and CHP.un, but this has changed rather significantly. In view of the current uncertainty about retail marketing, what is your opinion about investments in these two companies. Would you comment on the sustainability of SRU's dividend? Thank you for all the great ideas and comments.

Q: I have owned this for several years and while they seem to do a lot of good things the stock price has stubbornly been resistant to change. I figure the sector has a lot to do with this. There is also not a lot of coverage for this company so I am wondering if, as a proxy for sentiment, one might look to coverage of Pulte Homes, for example? I am not so much interested in switching names (unless you think it is reasonable to do so) but Pulte has been getting a lot of positive press lately, appearing on several lists as being undervalued, so I am wondering if that same optimism would apply. If so, would you see adding to TCN as a prudent move at this time?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Hi Guys
I hold both these companies, both of which are trading at about half of book value. I was thinking of selling one of these and using the proceeds to top up the other holding. Looking forward a couple of years, and seeing which company has delivered better returns, which company would you favour and why.

Thanks

Q: Given that RIT holds nearly all the REITs [including the two mentioned here] and their dividend is higher, does it make sense to simply hold RIT [even if their fees are higher]?
