Q: I have gains and outsized weighting in CSU, DSG, WXM. Planning to rebalance in the new year. I have been building positions in LMN and KXS and have a gain in those. I'm down and have smaller weightings in PBH, BYD, BEP.UN, AW. Which of these 6 would you suggest to add to in 2025?

Q: Good evening,

My understanding was that the annual distribution for AW.CA was to remain the same as AW.UN (based on a previous 5I answer). I note that AW.CA has now been set at $1.50 per annum versus $1.92 for AW.UN. This is a significant difference! What am I missing here? Please clarify.

Thanks very much.

Q: hi, I am down on all these names. I am considering adding to (some of?) them. I am looking for some growth in share price ( to match or beat inflation ) and a consistent growing dividend ( matching or beating inflation ). I also don't want to end up with another AQN or BCE scenario. could you kindly give us your advice on these names and include your thoughts on whether they are a buy (add to ), sell, or hold please.
cheers, Chris

Q: I owned 600 shares of AW.UN and was under the impression that the shares would be exchanged 1 for 1 for AW. That is not what appears to have happened. My account indicates I now own 583 shares of AW. iTrade has also changed the apparent purchase price which would suggest that I sold the AW.UN shares and bought the AW shares. Have I misunderstood how this transaction was suppose to take place? Do I have grounds to insist the missing 17 shares be returned?

Q: Hello 5i,
It was mentioned that AW:CA is worth keeping for income. So far I am down $3,000. Is there a reason for this? I know we are not fortune tellers, but after an initial period of indecision would it be expected to go up? Would you suggest an adding to QSR in a U.S. account or another Canadian option? If so what should be considered? Time frame is five years for this 78 year old income investor.
