Q: Regarding Robert's question this morning about withholding taxes on foreign dividends:
It is my understanding that there are no withholding taxes on the dividends of companies headquartered in the U.K.
I have never had taxes withheld on my U.K. holdings (BTI, BP, AZN). RIO plc is also headquartered in the U.K.

This is a very informative website:

Q: Hello. As a Canadian resident, how are the dividends from these companies handled in respect of any hold back and taxes? They would be held in a non registered account.

Q: Hello. Can I please get your comments on these companies as to commodity exposure mix, valuation, growth and dividend safety/payout details?

How would you rank if one was looking to buy all or some?

Deduct points as appropriate. Look forward to your comments. Thank you.

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!

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: 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.
