Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have a LIF consisting of these four. ENB at 15%, AW.UN, CPD and SIS all at around 27%. I will need to trim one or more for my annual withdrawal. Would you have any thoughts on the best candidate for a trim? Thanks as always for your advice.

Q: Covered Calls on positions held like: CDN Banks, BCE & T etc. I have never considered this strategy before; but, I am now. Reading up on it and would appreciate any comments/suggestions?

Selling covered calls on positions one has to earn extra income. I’ve been reading about it and it seems as though it is not something I should try? I noticed some ETFs do it to increase income payouts.

Thank you

Q: US bank stress test.

I read about the recent stress test results. Apparently results in general are not great.
Apparently Wells Fargo may cut their dividend next quarter and JPM opened the door by saying it was possibility they too could cut in the future. Never heard of such from the Canadian banks.

I have 20% of my total RRSP portfolio in JPM, Bank America, and Bank of New York Mellon.

They big US banks in general performed very well since the financial recession but now I wonder for the future?

Q: What do you think of Nutrien for a long term hold right now? Yield is nice and things should be better in 5-8 years, which is my time frame. I’m low in materials.
Could I hold this in my unregistered account as eligible for the dividend tax credit?
Thanks
Robert

Q: Tech companies are at all time high, it feels that we are again reaching a tech bubble. Is it time to lighten-up on tech companies/ funds/ETFs. What are the signs of reaching bubbles and how does this compare to previous cases of sector bubbles?

Thanks
