Q: Hello Team, I'm thinking about adding AD and HOT.UN to my portfolio for the dividends which are really good.

What are your thoughts on this? How risky are these companies? The AD CEO mentioned he plans to raise the dividend this year. HOT.UN just did a great aquisition. Am I missing something?

Q: I am retired and have holdings in Alaris Royalty and Cominar REIT for income in a broadly diversified portfolio, but have incurred unrealized capital losses of 12% and 6% respectively.

Should I continue to hold, sell or buy more at these levels?

Capital preservation is on my mind and are there better companies than the ones I hold?

Thanking you for your opinion

Q: I currently hold BPY, but am considering selling it for a small
profit and buying BIP for more growth.
Or would I do better to sell AD at a substantial loss, put the proceeds to work in BIP and hang on to BPY
Your thoughts please.
Thank you very much

Q: This is not a question but a remark on Alaris Royalty. You state in a reply to a member: (Date: Mar 02, 2017 07:16 AM), "we would be cautious on any company that has cut dividends in the past. AD has so we would rule it out for your restrictions". If Alaris has cut it's dividend sometime in the past, I can find no record of that happening. As a satisfied if frustrated owner of AD I would like you to specify when this cut occured please and Thank you.

Q: I am hunting for reliable dividend payers - companies likely to be around for the next 20years( highly safe - if not guaranteed safe) for the financial sector of an income portfolio.
These 4 have comparable yields. All are around 6%. I know there are issues with Alaris - so would not likely buy it unless you consider it buyable now.

But how about the others: would you recommend all - 1 - none?

Any guidance would be appreciated.
