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

Q: You have been quite negative in your commentary about Kraft Heinz. Unfortunately I hold it in my RRIF and hang onto it for the yield of about 6% at the current price. Since I need the income to live on, and can't claim the capital loss, should I hang onto it for income or switch into something else? If the latter, what alternative investment(s) could you suggest with comparable safety of yield and long term buy-and-hold potential?

Q: I have HON for 5 years now. I just bought some UTX because of the merger and the spinoffs added value potential. Could I have your thoughts on both these companies for the next year and for the next 5 years to help me decide if I keep both or move all the money to one stock.

Q: A guest of BNN suggested that seniors looking for yield should consider the larger US Industrials. He feels that the Industrial sector is already in recession and priced lower that results in good yields. Need to select ones with ability to continue paying dividend thru a rough patch.
Could you suggest ones that align with this theory.

Q: I hold Enterprise Product Partners in my RRSP account. I own this because the US seems less risky to pipelines in general. They announced further expansion with added capacity into 2021 and 2022. I know you don't cover US stocks but wonder if you could comment on debt levels, dividend coverage, etc.

Thanks for the fine service you provide

Q: Can I please have your opinion on Ark Innovators ETF. It has come off some from its highest level this year. Do you still see potential in starting a position with a long term view.? Would the shift from growth to value will continue putting pressure on this ETF?
Would investing in a value ETF be a better approach in this market?
