Q: I owned BIP.UN for several years with the spin off I was also owned some BIPC. The units have done well in the past until this year, it was flat. Meanwhile the shares have virtually doubled since their issue. I'm a primarily growth investor and sees yields as a "fringe benefits", would you consider switching the units entirely over to shares?

Certainly the deciding factor would be whether the shares' combined return (growth and yield) would outpace those of the units? Kindly share you insight on this issue. Thanks.

Q: sorry to bother you and an answer next week ( still 2019 trading) would be fine. What do you think of AMRC? Less of a risk? Still for the risk tolerant?

Merry Christmas to all of you at 5i. I noticed a subscriber coming to your defense this morning and concur with his comments. There will always be detractors, as you know, but like the great Taylor Swift would advise, "shake it off". Our financial situation has greatly improved thanks largely to your advice. Have a great holiday.

Q: In a TFSA is one allowed to withdraw C$ from the account and instantly replace the amount in US$ equivalent? (For various “technical” reasons – excuses—given by broker I am unable simply to redeem C$ and replace with US$ at beginning of year in just a couple of days!)

Q: Three or four years ago I bought Blackstone as my vehicle for diversification into the area of private equity. I mainly chose it over the others in this area because of the yield it offered.
When we descended into Covid hell last spring I viewed it as a time of opportunity for companies like Blackstone, picking off struggling companies or providing funding. Others might include BAM and Berkshire Hathaway.
Since then I've noticed Blackstone making multiple news announcements of purchases they've made.
What's your opinion here? Am I being biased by my own opinion or do you also think the company is setting up a bright future?
