Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good morning. Looking to add a few stocks (services, financial, utilities) for 5+yr hold with growth and income. EFN, AD & ENB are my front runners, respectively. Could you suggest one other alternative to each of those three that you would recommend? especially interested in your opinion on EFN today with their earnings news. And what is EFN payout ratio? great service thx. I am 35 years of age with higher-risk tolerance.

Q: hi
Joe asked about your top ten juicy dividend payers. Some are barely in the 3% zone.
Are you preferring these because of safety? Growth?
Are the higher yields from the names I listed at risk of cuts? There are quite a few out there yielding 5% +
Thoughts on these higher yield names?
Thank you!!

Q: I hold the above mentioned securities in my total portfolio. Some positively,some negatively affected by rising interest rates. Group one (5%)-cpx,Enb& AD. Group two (3.4%)-Reits cuf & kmp . Group three (7.4%)- zpr & Ecn.pr.a
My plan reduce positio in group one esp. Enb and use proceeds to buy cpd.a my concern with cpd.a is fees totaling 2%. Also when purchasing this security there appears to be a trailer fee attached as indicted when I attempted to make a trade. Your opinion please.

Q: Hello 5i,
In response to Dale's question this morning about Alaris: when I read the press release I interpreted the comment about the $2 million in distributable cash to be some of the monies flowing from the partners to Alaris and not an increase in the distribution to shareholders. Perhaps their wording was a little ambiguous or perhaps I totally misinterpreted. Could you please confirm either way for me? I know they talked about their "run rate"? being under 90% now, but again, the wording left me a little confused as to whether that confirmed a shareholder distribution increase or not.
Thanks!!!
Cheers,
Mike
P.S. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all at 5i and the 5i community!!
