Q: I believe Gluskin is reporting this week. What are the anticipation results (earnings, revenus, aum, cash on hand)?
Thank you

Q: I am considering adding (about 2% position) a high-yielding, non-bank financial, and am looking at FSZ or GS. My objectives are more dividend sustainability and stock price stability over growth. Do you know what the payout is for each of these, and do you have a preference for one over the other and why? Would you buy today? If you have a better idea, please comment.
Thank-you

Q: Made a good profit in my TFSA by selling ECI today. Would appreciate your thoughts on a decent replacement for income (4% yield or better) but with reasonable security of the dividend. Thanks.

Q: GS is up 30% in the last 3 months. On a tear again today, Any rationale behind the very steep rise for a sleepy stock?

Hi
Could you please choose from the above list (or any additions of your choice) the stocks that you feel would be best suited to be held in an income/dividend non registered account for a long period of time. It would be great if you could also guide me as to whether I should do equal weight or if it is better to invest by a percentage of one company over another. I am interested in trying to have the highest return of dividends but I do not want to reach too far for it (ie 50% KWH.UN). If I could get a blended 6% annually over 10+ years that would be super. Not all the companies need to be included. I know there are some that overlap sectors.
Thank you for all that you do. You are great guides.

Q: Greetings! I need to buy some safe dividend growth stocks for income, and a very long term hold. I already own plenty of bank stocks, telecom, ENB, ENF, IPL, MSI, FTS, AQN, CU.
This for a non-registered account, so .UN stocks are not of benefit. I have looked at the Income Model Portfolio. What would you consider to be good buys right now, whether or not the stocks are in the Model Portfolio? I also have a curiosity about EIF. Thank you.

Q: The share price on this company is on a tear since the 1/4ly report.
Do you think this because it was a good report and people are buying back in, looking back to where the share price was 3 years ago with the hope of a good capitol gain, or is this a typical case of piling on to get the special dividend, only to sell, sell, sell, once it goes ex-dividend next Friday.
Thanks again for all your wonderful insights.

Q: I believe GS reported. May I please have your comments.

Q: GS reported earnings yesterday. If I understand the report correctly, the quarterly earnings do not appear to cover the quarterly dividend. Plus, a special dividend is being paid. Can you please discuss/ explain the report and advise whether, in your opinion, the situation is sustainable? Thank you kindly in advance for your reply. Following these results would you continue to prefer FSZ over GS?

Q: Hi 5i!
GS or FSZ? Looking for income in low-cap financials. FSZ has a PE around 87 !?! Are the dividends safe on both names? Your thoughts.
Many Thanks!

Q: Hi, Peter and Ryan, I am in a postion to adjust my well diversified portfolio by adding to 2 of the above currently owned companies or additionally adding RME to the portfolio. My cash position is 4.6% at this time. What is your recommendation today? Alternatively there is no rush so do I wait a bit longer.
