Investment Q&A

Q: Hi There!

I and family own CDR shares on NEO of several US companies. I thought that, as they are fractional shares of the main shares they would mostly move in same direction of the parent shares. Lately I’ve noticed quite often even though the main shares are up on a day the CDRs are moving lower sometimes significantly. I can understand a few things that may cause this such as USD/CAD FX or perhaps it’s trading volume differences. Can you please explain this further?

Thank you!

Q: could you give an in-depth analyses of GXE please.The dividend looks very attractive.
Would you be a buyer here or could you mention some better candidates in the sector.
High yield stocks like GXE are they best in a TSFA account?

Q: I've notice preferred share markets gaining around 2% in a day on a couple of occasions. Obviously somebody's loading up..question...have you noted any other sector rotations that may be occurring or that you anticipate? Many thanks...

Q: Why the dip and does it make this sto k more appealing?

Q: I have already asked a question about this security. Thanks very much for your answer regarding the payments being interest and not dividends.
I just can't understand this security. It is an inflation linked bond with a maturity date in 2040. The new year's interest rate has been announced as 13.3% based on the 100 bond price. The current face value has declined over the last week even though the interest rate has gone up by just over 2% per year. The current rate on face value of 137 is 9.7%.
I know about the thin trading volume and the potential for Constellation to redeem the bond with 5 years notice.
What am I missing?? Is there a good reason not to put a fair chunk of fixed income destined money into this debenture?
Thanks as always for your insight!!

Q: Where did you get the yield on these ETFs being 4.6% and 4.8%? My TD webbroker shows yields of 2.29% and 2.26% respectively

Q: In reference to Paul's question yesterday. That ZWU from 2017 to 2021 of that nice dividend 1/2 to 1/3 was a return of my own capital, Considering that, I'm surprised that 5I has recommended ZWU. What I thought was a very nice dividend is not. Now I'm wondering how many other covered call stocks are doing the same? The underlying stocks don't give a return of capital, right. Next I'm going to find out there is no Santa.

Q: I own the above US Stocks in my RRSP. Please rate each one as a BUY, HOLD or SELL and the reasons for your Rating.

Q: I am looking to add to one or both of BN and BAM. Do you have a preference on one or the other. I know that one is growth oriented and one is income oriented but are their present valuations similar - is one priced better than the other. Thanks.

Q: what is the current production rate? with and without Yamana?

Q: Sangoma's momentum has been downward for some time now. Is this just because it is unpopular or are there question marks around its balance sheet and its growth potential. Has there been any significant insider buying or selling the past few months. Thanks.

Q: STC has a 10.3% (0.65) haircut today to $5.66.Any news?Did have a Jan bounce to some $6.61 on Jan 16.Please comment.Add,hold or sell? Txs for U usual great services & views.

Q: Hi, will the new BAM and BN only pay out dividend income and not any other type of income like ROC or interest etc as the other Brookfield entities have over the years. I will buy them in a cash account and don’t want the record keeping hassle the other entities are known for. Also, any idea what the yield on BAM might be? Lastly, do you think this is the final BN spinoff? Many thanks for the incredible service you provide.

Q: Was there any news about CELH? It dropped like a stone on good volumes.
Your insight on this company after today's drop is appreciated. Would you look to add at recent support levels?

Q: Hi, I’m curious and very intrigued as to how an AQN takeover might happen. Could it be bought whole and if so who has the resources to pull this off? I’m thinking Brookfield/ BEPC or perhaps another Private Equity company like KKR? Or could it be sold off in parts perhaps renewables to a NPI or Brookfield and the Power Gen/Transmission/Water to a Fortis? Thanks in advance.

Q: hello 5i:
can you tell me how much Return of Capital has been for ZWU dividends over the last 5 years?
thanks

Q: I've been looking at my allocations and am very low in consumer defensive, consumer cyclical and materials. Could you give me some recommendations for companies in these areas that give a 3.5%div or more. For US and Canada. Ones that you would consider now a good time to buy. Thank you.
