Investment Q&A

Q: I apologize for this very basic question but I need to confirm the following please:
If I buy a canadian company’s stock (ex CM) with U.S. dollars on a
U.S. exchange, will I receive the dividend in U.S. dollars?
To receive the dividend in $U.S. , I don’t need to advise my brokerage or make any special request ?
There would be no withholding tax, right?
Thx
John

Q: Would you sell Brookfield Corp here for a tax loss or wait till closer to year end to see if it improves?

Q: What would be your current list of top 5 companies that you would consider your favorite, almost must own's, due to their potential, prior success, moats, or any other criteria you consider as most important, for the following investor:

- Relatively young with a long timeframe to save for retirement.
- Will not need the funds for a long time.
- Has no concerns with short term volatility.
- Irrespective of sector or geography.
- Looking to maximize chances of outperformance over time.

List can be shorter or longer if appropriate.

Thank you!

Q: I am retired and a dividend investor in corporations which receive the dividend tax credit as any investments would be in an unregistered account. Would you think it’s timely to purchase some preferred shares for a 5 percent position, doing so over the next couple of months. If you think it is worthwhile, please provide 4 or 5 preferred shares that you would recommend.

Capital preservation and liquidity is important and unless the dividend is greater than 7 percent I would assume you would be better off just investing in some blue chip large cap companies with high yields where there is a chance for more capital appreciation. ALSO I would like you to consider minimum rate reset preferred shares that would reset within the next 12 months and if they reset today what would the yield be.

Thanks BRIAN

Q: PBH: 5i continues to sing the praises of this company and I am not sure why? last 7 years stock same range with peaks and valleys, high P.R. low ROE & high debt. I thought about it at around, I think $79.00; but, bought GSY which looked better to me using every metric. Have owned IGM for long time and added to that when price was low - best of breed IMHO.

Q: If you had to sell one of the above and keep the other in a TFSA which one would you part with?

Thanks,

Terry

Q: An analyst recently reported that new contracts for EIF in medivac and maritime surveillance are coming on board in 2025 and will bring a "huge" increase in income as well as profits? First, are these contracts set in stone? And second, do you think these contracts will in fact make a "huge" difference in EIFs growth and stock price? Finally, is it worth buying the stock now in anticipation of this growth?
