Investment Q&A

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

Q: I asked this question in the blog but probably should be here.

My broker told me that BEP.UN was a bad investment because the $2.25 payout far exceeded the $1.11 earnings? When I go online to check this out I get conflicting numbers, so not sure who to believe. Can you clarify as to the integrity of BEP.UN
Thankyou....Jim

Q: Both companies are in the same business, and have similar dividends.

I know that SIS is now in one of your portfolios. Was this a difficult decision - choosing between the 2 companies? Wuld you see as bright a future for PM as you do for SIS?

Could you build a case to own both?

Thanks.

Q: Would you support selling TMA ( currently down 22%) to buy SIS. Or continue to be patient and hold for growth or privatization?

Q: Although you do not specifacally follow US stocks, I would appreciate your opinion on ESRX. It has dropped significantly this year. I still have an 18% profit on it. Is it worth holding or would another US investment be more promising? (My other US holdings being MMM, JNJ, NVS, VIG, IWO). Thank you

Q: I know that this isn't your favorite gold miner, and that is fairly high risk. I have been down on this one for over a year, and I am above water and it seems to moving steadily upwards. I assume it mostly to do with the Gold Price. Have any fundamentals changed where I should keep this for awhile longer, or is time to cut ties.

I don't need the money at this time, and I don't mind some risk, but I could switch from HMY to AEG.

As always thanks for you guidance.

Q: Hi Peter and Team! Like Bryan, I have read Peter Schiff's doom and gloom articles. Food for thought at times, but is he not peddling his own investment company as well? I have been reading the various authors on seeking alpha, Peter Schiff being one of them. You can get those that say we are going to hell in a hand basket and should invest in underground bunkers, to those on the other end of the spectrum that think everything is rosy...and those in between. I figure we have faced uncertainty before and the industrialized world is still standing. So in my naïveté , I will stay calm and carry on. Cheers, Tamara

Q: Hello,

Your last comment about this stock was on Jan 25, when the stock was at 5.26. Now it's at 3.85 (give or take) with a 15+ yield.
Is there a possibility that if the oil stays at the current level for a long time (or moves lower) BDI goes belly up?

Thanks
Marios
