Q: XMF.PR.B is a preferred split share fund from Quadravest. It invests solely in shares of Manulife . The fund sells at about $5.10 and pays a 7.3% dividend monthly. My understanding is that it has never missed paying the dividend in over 10 years. The fund guarantees to buy back your share at $5.00 on the anniversary date, which is December 1st 2024. It would appear to have bond like characteristics with a high payout. Your input would be appreciated.

Q: Is there an overly compelling reason to own CCL.b today? Its missed earnings 4 out of the last 6 reports and in conjunction with its earnings misses the shares have topped out at $67 a few times since June 2017.

With its current earnings estimates, $2.85 in 2019 and $3.09, in 2020, against the backdrop of probability, how likely do you think CCL.b shares see a 10% increase within the next 12 months?

Thanks again.

John

Q: Further to Thomas’ question about putting two non-registered accounts into one, aside from the deemed disposition issue, for tax purposes, this is generally not a good idea. The first person listed on a joint account is generally deemed to be the ‘lead’ on the account, and all T5s and associated tax receipts are only issued to the lead person.

So instead of splitting taxes between 2 people, once assets are joined in one account, all taxes - and corresponding increased tax rates - will most likely be borne by the one individual.
Just another aspect to consider before combining assets together.
