Investment Q&A

Q: I would like to top up these positions and trim them back in the future (12-24months?)

Are there any names on the list I should avoid or expect a longer recovery for?

Always appreciate your wisdom.

Q: You have SPB in your income portfolio.I have it in my RRSP for the dividend which is now 6.87%.Is the dividend safe?
Would you prefer MX which yields 2.1%? Both stocks have dropped with the recent downturn and both are considered buys by TD.

Q: SPB's Q3 looks good in terms of trending upwards in most respects. However, the market measures a stock's results based on expectations, In that case did the results meet those expectations for Q3 and the future? Also, is there any chance SPB will increase its dividends? It has been stuck at $0.06 a month for years. Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i Team
I'm looking for an income stock to hold long term. Please rank these companies in order based on today's prices. Thanks for great service.

Q: What will be the impact to the shares of Superior Propane due to the weather and the need for farmers to use dryers to dry their grain crops. I have heard there is a shortage due to this useage of propane in Alberta.

Q: Hello,

I am confused by spb’s decision to sell equity into the market at market prices, over a period of time. Doesn’t this put a ceiling on the stock? And in fact help drive the price lower? Would seem to be a shorter’s dream.

Regards,

Robert

Q: what gives...down14% today....potential share delusion; the reason?

Q: Hello,

Long time holder of PKI and SPB. In the past I have watched PKI bounce around and jump up in price and then back down because earnings were weather related (good or bad) and/or input related (ie. contract spreads). Now with the recent price increase (very happy) is it because of their move into convenience stores or is their underlying profit seen to be more "permanent" than "transitory"? Does SPB carry similar characteristics as PKI so that under the right circumstances, they could see a large price increase as well?

Thanks,

Robert

Q: For someone who doesn’t need either income or growth, but would choose income first, what would be the best option between SPB and ALA? Or would a mixture of both be ideal?

Thank you.

Q: Can you compare EIF vs SPB for a dividend growth investor. They
are similar in some ways but SPB appears to be less volatile and the
better performer recently. Which would you give the nod today?

Q: I've decided to begin building an income portfolio and have chosen the companies listed above. (Mostly from your Income Portfolio). I am retired but my pension income covers my monthly expenses. I'm looking for companies that you believe are strong enough to maintain, and hopefully increase), dividends in the long run. I understand we are in a climate of interest rate increases and income stocks could suffer as a result so I'm wondering if I should wait to begin building this portfolio. My intention is to round out the portfolio by adding companies from your balanced portfolio. My questions are:
1. Can you suggest a strategy that you consider to be wiser as I begin to develop my new portfolio?
2. Do you consider the companies I have chosen to be the best choices for a new portfolio considering all current investment metrics? Could you suggest any I have missed?
Thank-you for your continued support.
