Q: I see that for NTR and HR.UN the RSI is entering oversold territory. What importance do you place in the RSI for a company when considering a buy or sell? I am considering buying these two companies at these levels, would you recommend a purchase now? I am surprised at the sinking stock price of HR.UN compared to other REITs, do you see a particular reason for this? Thank you for your great work.

Q: Hello Peter and Team. I am looking at selling MX to decrease my number of positions in the materials sector and looking to increase my current Nutrien exposure. Do you think that this is the best way to go, or should it be the reverse and what would be your reasoning?
Thank you.

Q: Hi
I hold all these stocks in a non registered account, to take advantage of their dripping and tax advantages. I have the $ to buy another holding. What top 3 companies do you suggest to add to this mix for a long term hold, my goal is the highest dividend possible, with as little risk as possible. Also, do you have any issues with the compaies already held? I also have other growthier holdings in my tfsa as well as etfs for US and International exposure in my RRSP.
thank you
Michele

Q: I hold the above stocks in my TFSA. Since they pay dividends in USD I plan to journal these holdings to the USD side of my TFSA. Is there any risk that it could be deemed an over contribution by the CRA? I hear of cases where transferring TFSA assets from one account to another causes this over-contribution.

Q: With the recent run up in EIF's share price, I've made a solid profit.
I'm now considering selling either half or all of my EIF shares and purchasing partial positions in both MX and NTR. I feel the latter two companies currently represent good value and could be considered "safer" than EIF. I have a 3-5 year time horizon.
Kindly provide your opinion

Q: It looks like the dividend growth % figures are incorrect for NTR on https://www.5iresearch.ca/company/tsx/NTR

The dividend has gone up, but the stats show a sharp 3 year and 5 year decline when there is only 1 year of history. Perhaps pre-NTR history is being included by the provider of this data.

Thanks

Q: based on your comments, it looks like I should sell this investment. do you still recommend selling it even though the share price has been going up recently and it still pays a hefty dividend? If I sell should I wait until just after Sept 30, the next dividend payment date? if not why? what do you currently recommend replacing it with?
thanx

Q: I am a retired, dividend-income investor with a buy-and-hold strategy that I trim-add around core positions. I am a bit light in the Materials sector.

I have been following MX and NTR. Both screen well on the metrics I use (P/E, P/BV, P/CF, P/S, ROE, dividend, dividend growth, payout ratio and consideration to analyst expectations). If I had to select one, I would give the nod to Methanex although RBC Direct Investing rates NTR better. Five questions:

#1 = For a long term hold, which would you pick?

#2 = Even though I am not a trader, for a rebound potential, which would you pick?

#3 = I use a full weighting of 5% for blue chips (examples, BCE, BNS, FTS, TRP). What weighting would you suggest...I am thinking a half position?

#4 = Both stocks are global companies. Which stock is more susceptible to the current trade wars?

#5 = Or....is there a better alternative stock which you like better than MX-NTR?

Five questions...please deduct 5 credits.
Thanks for the great service...Steve
