Q: I have ACM COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE FUND as a holding in my RRSP. This has been a steady performer for the past few years. With fears of rising interest rates, would a fund such as this be adversely affected by rising rates in the future and if so could you recommend a suitable replacement for ACM (an ETF or possibly a Mawer Fund)which would have about the same performance but not be affected by rising rates. Thank you.

Q: SGL
Hi Peter and Team
I am a long term holder (from the Avenex meltdown) Do you think there is a chance management can work through the problems over a year or two OR is it time to move on?

Thanks Jim

Q: I have set up two trust accounts for my teenage children. The intention is to buy a couple of dividend paying stocks with a drip, the idea being to set them on a path to financial literacy since I'm not convinced they will learn this at school. As they turn 18 I will transfer the proceeds into their first TFSA for them. I will research my own portfolio for ideas - PKI comes to mind - but would you have an stock recommendations that meet these criteria:

1) 5I approved
2) div of min 4%
3) with a DRIP

Thank you!

Q: hello 5i:
could you compare ENB and ENF (again), as its been about 3 months since the last question (also asked by someone named Paul!!!). ENF looks undervalued when using the standard metrics like PE, P/S, P/B etc. And, can you give a reason as to why the market is discounting the price. Something we're not aware of?
thanks

Q: I am looking to add a renewable energy producer to my existing power producers (EMA and CPX). My main objective is income. What is your opinion of Transalta Renewables, RNW? Could you comment on their debt levels, dividend stability/payout and whether the association with Transalta is a positive or negative. They seem to have very long term existing PPAs. Do you think the extra dividend is worth holding RNW, or is Brookfield (BEP.UN) really a better choice?
Thanks
