Investment Q&A

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

Q: Further to previous questions on BAMR

BAMR has an outline of the characteristics of BAMR which after review makes BAMR different that the previous Brookfield spinouts (i.e. BEPC and BIPC)

https://bamr.brookfield.com/stock-and-distributions/tax-information

BAMR is a Bermuda Corporation, not a Canadian Corporation
BAMR is considered a foreign holding requiring reporting under T-1135
BAMR dividends are NOT Canadian Eligible Dividends

This information was not well presented during the initial spin out and came as a bit of surprise to me after review.

Thanks

Q: Both Sierra and Aura have excellent financials but seem evenly matched on their current “race to the bottom” vis-a-vis their stock price. Would your recommendation be to:
A) sit back and take Aura’s occasional dividend payout
B) sell
C) buy more should the decline finally hit bottom?
Thanks for your perspective.

Q: Good morning,

It looks like NVDIA posted excellent results - would like your take on the results and also your advice for someone who wants to start a position. Do you think it is wise to invest now or wait a little, and what would be a good entry price? The markets seem a little jittery as of late.

Thank you!

Q: Hi 5i,
do you think AQN, BEP.UN, BEPC, BLX and NPI might experience some tax loss selling pressure for the remainder of 2021?
Can you rate them in order of purchase preference with #1 being the most favoured for an income portfolio.

thanks

Q: I had 2506 shares of BPY.UN before the merger.
Now I have 228 shares of BAM.A and 164 shares of BPYP.PR.A. The value of these two spinoffs is about $40,000 less then the 2506 shares of BPY.UN. Why is this?

Also should I sell those latter two as they only comprise 0.55% and 0.18% of the portfolio or combine the two and add to BAM.A.
Does this also mean I am reduced in real estate as a result of the merger?
Thanks Please deduct as many credits as needed.
