Investment Q&A

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

Q: This is a follow-up questions about determining whether a company is considered growth vs income. Can I interpret what you said as being:

If the sales and EPS do not increase much, or stays the same, over many years, and the company offers a reasonable dividend then it is considered income.

On the other hand, if the sales and EPS increase steadily over several years, then it is considered growth, whether or not it offers any dividend.

And if the sales and EPS fluctuate year to year, it may be cyclical, which is a separate category.

If it does not fit into any of the above, then it is a company of that should not be considered investing in.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
I have held a position on BNS, RBC and TD for about 5 years now. Seeing that BNS has been under performing relative to RBC and TD over the last year and a bit, I was thinking of liquidating my position on BNS and put the proceeds into RBC and TD equally. Just wondering what your thoughts are on this.
Cheers,

Q: We are seeking income (although capital retention is also important) and wonder if we would be wise to sell IPL which you don't seem big on and replace it with BPY.UN which you seem to like. The sector is not too important as the portfolio has a good balance of pipelines and REIT's. Both companies mentioned have a very good yield.
