Investment Q&A

Q: Hi
I also hold BEP/UN and AQN. Being that BEPC is at break even now, I am wondering if I should hold it, or switch it out for BLX if BLX has more potential for growth over time. Would you have a different suggestion than BLX? Your thoughts on this would be appreciated!
Thanks for all your hard work - Dawn

Q: Thanks for the wonderful work from the team. I am holding BRLXF since past 2 years. Have a good 100% gain. However in past 6 months its down significant from about $40 to $30. Do you still see a good growth potential for the stock or would you recommend something else in this sector. Holding period is long 5+ and comfortable with risk and volatility.
Also any recommendation on any ETF or something else where one can park cash component of the Portfolio. I hold about 10% of portfolio in cash to be deployed at times when market is over sold .

Q: What are your thoughts on NPI ? What is the financial situation of the company and future prospect?
Thanks

Q: a) Could you please clarify the advantage of owning bep.un vs bepc.
b) Would you recommend adding either to my current holding of aqn/npi/blx?
c) Please list in order of preference
d) Do you think all four would give greater diversity, or would you prefer owning only 2 or 3 of theses companies and if so which ones!

Q: Despite the pullback in "green" energy stocks they still look expensive to me (AQN a possible exception). BLX and PIF have forward E/P over 50x according to the Globe.
Would you expect a better entry point, and if choosing an ETF do you have a preference between ZCLN and HCLN.

Q: What is making these stocks go down day after day. They seem to be in a popular area going forward?

Q: Which of these poses the best opportunity for a recovery in the space? Would you please rank? Thanks for all you do.

Q: what's up with todays almost 7% decline??

Q: My question is regarding value metrics for CPX. I compared EV/Revenue for the above utilities and CPX is lowest at 4.66, followed by FTS at 5.96. FTS has the lowest P/B at 1.49; CPX is the next best at 2.00. As an income/value investor, is CPX a value diamond in the rough? I know it keeps missing estimates, but I would get a yield of about 5.5% while waiting for financial results to improve. Your comments very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Q: With so many Canadian renewable energy companies on the stock market, do you favour any in the mid to long-term period for a position in a RRSP or TFSA?
