Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi there,
I know this is a bit out of your wheelhouse but i will ask anyways. I currently own Duke Realty which i have done well with. However, i am thinking of switching from Duke to Digital Realty given the recent correction in Digital. I know it will take some time to absorb their recent acquisition but i like their future growth given their expertise in Digital Data centres and the trend in Cloud computing. Your thoughts on the switch. I am looking for a bit of growth along with a nice divi.
I pay no trading fees so that is not a consideration!

(Sorry if this is a duplicate question - my computer died while i was submitting so not sure it went through)

Q: Can you help me?! I just received the proceeds from the buyout of Dream Global. About $10 of the 16.79 price is designated as a dividend in my transaction history. The press release says it is an all cash transaction. I had planned, with this transaction, to realize a certain level of capital gains for 2019. If this $10 shows up on my tax slip as a dividend that throws my planning out the window and I only have a few days to rectify.

Itrade says they can’t help as does the transfer agent.

Q: Hello, if you had to buy either CSH.UN or NWH.UN today, which one of these two companies would you buy? Could you also compare their debt? I know one should not look at past performances, but over the last three years NWH.UN has done much better than CSH.UN. Would you say that NWH.UN is also indirectly related to health care? Thanks, Gervais

Q: I am a recently retired income investor with a diversified portfolio that includes 14 Reits totaling about 15% of my portfolio. While they have done well over the last couple of years (especially in the last 6 months), they have been declining in unison recently. Do you think that this is the start of a rotation away from REITS and into more growth stocks, or simply some short term profit taking? How do you feel about REITS overall as an income strategy?
Thanks
