Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am at a point in my life where I am looking to my investments more for income than growth. My question concerns how you might incorporate a strategy that are includes "dividend" stocks that pay a low yield. eg HD, TRI, CN etc. Assuming you wish to obtain an overall yield of 4% - 5% from your portfolio (in order to satisfy RRIF requirements while maintaining some growth) I would think it best not to load up only on high yield stocks and continue maintain a balanced portfolio. To achieve the necessary income should one invest in low dividend payers and sell a portion of the low yield dividend payers annually in order to achieve the be needed income; go a bit overweight on high yield equities in order to juice the income; or just forget about balancing the portfolio?

Any thought you have would be greatly welcomed.

Appreciate the insight.

Q: I currently own full positions in BEP.UN and BIP.UN in a diversified dividend income portfolio. I have considered buying BN as well, but am not sure that increasing my Brookfield concentration is warranted. What are your views?
Thanks.

Q: Good Morning all,
Have had this bank in my TFSA for awhile and was waiting for some movement. However now it is looking desastrous. Do I bite the bullet now or wait for it to settle up? Some are saying the stock has an intrinsic value of close to $50 and therefore should head back toward that value. In your valued opinion, is this stock a hold or a sell?
Thank you.
