Investment Q&A

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

Q: Can you discuss the differences between dlr.i.ca, dlr.ca, hbil.ca , pas.ca , csav.ca in regards to safety of capital to park cash. There is a significant difference in return 4%-10%. Some are high interest savings accounts and others US dollar accounts. Are the US dollar accounts too risky?
Thanks.

Q: From a look at the CNQ price history graph, roughly between 2006 to covid, CNQ cycled between $15 to $25. For some 3 years post covid, it climbed from $15 to as high as $55. It is now about $42 which is still quite a lot above the 2006-2020 trend. I would be grateful if you can comment on what was holding back CNQ in the first period and what drove it during the second period, such as change in earnings, P/E, etc. I would like to understand if it is currently overpriced and if it dropped back to the $20-$30 range would the dividend be much at risk.

Q: Hi 5i
At what share price will FTN discontinue its dividend? I know you've mentioned split share dividends are dependant on NAV but how does one find the NAV value? I cant seem to find it??
How do you view dividend going forward .....?
Does current dividend look like it in trouble at these levels?

And are the preferred dividends fixed or subject to adjustment ?
Thx

Q: I believe the current market downturn provides opportunity. I would like your insight into the following two questions; along the lines of "be greedy when others are fearful".

First, recognizing a 2-3 year hold is very, very short term thinking, what are 3 companies with dividend bearing stock that you feel would be in the top 10% of performers as the market recovers.

Second, what 3 companies do you feel provide the biggest stock price recovery and growth opportunity for a 5+ year hold.

Thanks as always,

Dave

Q: I have a starting position in IFC and I was planning to add. However, I notice that FFH has recovered nicely from 2020 and has significantly outperformed IFC since then. So I am wondering if FFH is the better investment. I would appreciate your comparison and recommendation. Thank you.

Q: I was told current rate(s) on TCSH.TO (TD Product) is 4.85 whilst Global X Cash is 4.03 annualized. Not certain how and why these can be considerably higher than many High Interest Savings accounts but would you consider them to be equally safe to comparable High Interest Saving Accounts for holding Cash?
