Investment Q&A

Q: Good morning,

Could you please pass on your latest views on Rio Tinto. Would you buy?

Thank you.

Q: Hi, we have TFSA’s, RRSP’s and non-registered accounts. Where is the best place to hold high dividend US stocks? Thanks, Bill

Q: I have a two energy stocks (SU & IMO), but I don't have any mining/resource stocks. BNN mentioned both RIO and BHP Group as having good potential and also good inflation picks. I'm thinking about picking up the above two and also LUN and possibly CMMC. Do you see any problems with this combination for a conservative investor?

thanks for the great service!

Paul

Q: good afternoon - I'm reading a bit about RIO and it seems a bit odd that such a big company pays such a high dividend. Is this a worthy investment for someone looking for more basic material exposure? Is this dividend real and sustainable? thanks

Q: Morning team,

It seems like base metals, especially copper, have been on a run lately, and I keep hearing the narrative that all the global government stimulus is/will fuel a bull market based around infrastructure spending. My questions are; 1) do you generally agree with this theory?, and 2) which base metals companies do you prefer? So far I've been looking at RIO, TECK, and FCX.

Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Q: Clf seems to have good growth prospects but is it fundamentally strong enough to take advantage? Any thoughts on superior competitors in this sector?

Q: I have AEM and KL for gold exposure.I am considering adding RIO for materials exposure.Do you have a preferred choice in the materials sector?

Q: Hi 5iTeam,
Price of iron ore had shot up to levels not seen since 2014. Would now be a good time to take a position in RIO or I may have missed the boat. Also please comment on RIO going forward for the next 3 years.
Cheers,

Q: Hi Team,

Q: SEASON GREETINGS
YOUR OPINION ABOUT THIS STOCK AND IS IT A GOOD TIME TO BUY IT.THANKS.EBRAHIM

Q: With prices of copper recently hitting a one-year low, just wondering what your thoughts are on RIO for the 2 years.
Great work, guys.

Q: I would appreciate your thoughts on the drop in share price after Rio's results which seemed pretty solid, along with more dividend increase and stock buy back- what's not to like?
Thanks for your expertise

Q: Happy New Year 5iResearch Team,
I took a position on RIO in early August 2017 and currently up about 23%. Just wondering if can recommend an exit strategy on RIO.
Cheers,

Q: I was starting to build a position in rio thinking it was a fairly solid dividend payer in the materials sector with some international exposure. It is down almost 4%today. do you think this is on the basis of the decreased copper production due to temporary issues or the sec charges for past executives and likely to smolder for some time. SGould I continue to add or bail. Thanks for your advice.

Q: I wish to add resource company to my tfsa, 3-5 year horizon; accept moderate risk
Please comment on this company and pros/cons of choosing trevali rather than rio tinto
Many thanks

Q: Hello Peter and staff:
I hold shares of Tourmaline in my RRIF account and they are down 47% and I was thinking of selling them and investing the money in shares of Rio Tinto.
Your thoughts on these two companies and the soundness of this switch.
In my question today, I forgot to ask that since common shares of Rio Tinto are being purchased in a RRIF account, is there foreign tax withheld from the dividend that it pays?
Thank again
Thank you.

Q: Hi 5iResearch Team,

Q: Would you agree with the statement "Mining is at the dawn of a new megacycle" and if so are there any Canadian mining companies, you could recommend similar to RIO-N. With thanks, Bill

Q: Good morning. What do you think of Rio Tinto? I know its not a stock you generally follow. If I were to sell what Canadian stock(s) would you recommend I replace it with?

Q: Hello All, could you please give your view on RIO.N? Thankyou.
