Investment Q&A

Q: Can you recommend an ETF that covers the green energy industry - particularly solar and hydrogen. Thanks.

Q: Hello,

Can you please provide your thoughts on CHAR Technologies Ltd.?

Thanks!

Q: Is there a Canadian Co. that might benefit from the proposed Infrastructure spending that U.S
President Biden is planning for the U.S.? Would this Co. have to be listed on both the Canadian & U.S. Exchanges? I want a stock that qualifies for the Canadian DTC. I find BIP.UN & BIPC a bit baffling. Last March, BIPC was created & I thought it was supposed to mirror BIP.UN but as of last Friday there was a $20 difference between the price of the two stocks. When I look into BIPC which I would prefer because of the DTC, most of its holdings are in Brazil & the U.K.
Thank you: Jerry

Q: Hello 5i Team,

Thanks for all your excellent suggesstions/advice in the past and have made good returns.
The current allocation for ZIN in my RRSP is 3.5% and the value has increased by 25%. I was wondering if it is prudent to sell ZIN now and buy XGI so that I can DRIP and add the profits from ZIN to VUN.

Q: Both of these vaccine stock are having huge gains today, Jan 29, especially Novavax on it's very good 3rd trial results.

Q: Hello -
I have a concern about the grossing up of Canadian dividends (non registered account) affecting my OAS when I reach 71. By that time I will be forced to RRIF, I'll have my CPP, and I also have a company pension that I will be drawing from prior to that.

I know you are not tax experts, but wondered if you see anything wrong with my thinking here. I am leaning more towards lower paying dividend paying blue chips in that non-registered account. I already have ATD.B and CNR. Are there any other quality Canadian companies that you are comfortable with in this "lower dividend" category?

Alternatively I was thinking I could "swap" some investments. i.e. have more Canadian dividend payers in my RRSP and have my emerging market ETF's - ZID and VEE - in my non-registered account. Do you think this is worth considering?
At least those dividends would not be grossed up. Although the trade-off is that you lose the dividend credit.......sigh.

Q: Hi, US president wants to move to an al-electric federal vehicle fleet, above stocks can benefit from this policy? Can you recommend stocks will benefit from his policy?

Q: Small caps have always been a focus of mine and the 5i team has helped me build out a nice group over the last year to complement my core holdings. Can you let me know if your thesis has changed (negatively) on any of these names? Any standouts that you would add to either due to opportunity or valuation if I had more $ available?

Thx as always for your valued advice
