Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

I currently do own small amounts of each of the companies above except for EQB.

Do you feel strong enough about EQB to replace any of the other 3 companies if taxes or trading fees are not an issue or just advise to ride it out

Thanks for all you do
Dennis

Q: Hello,
Could you please recommend five to six high yielding Canadian stocks and REITS that you would feel confident investing in right now? Safety and high yield is my goal. A brief explanation/justificaton for your picks would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Q: I purchased Tamarak(TVE) based on many recommendations, as well as yours
- Many people and firms continue to like and recommend this name...

- CFRA has a Hold, with a Negative Growth Rating...

- Price , Chart/Trend have Not been doing well...

- There is a nibble of insider buying

Questions:
1. Would you suggest Hold, Buy more or Sell for another...

2. Why does it seem like negative trading sentiment these days and poor current stock performance, when overall the stock is liked and recommended by many...?

3. Paramount Resources(POU) - I have heard a few Positive recommendations on this company... I think Leon Cooperman had good things to say as well...
- CFRA has a Hold, but gives a Positive Growth Rating

4. Would you recommend staying with TVE or consider POU...? Or Others..?

Thanks

Q: Energy is a small portion of my overall portfolio. TVE is one of my larger holdings but it has lagged other energy names in the past few months. Do you still like TVE and should I be adding to bring my average cost down.

What are your three favourite Canadian Energy Names in current market?

Thanks

Q: Can you shed some light on these fixed income vehicles offered by Bank of Montreal and BNS respectively.

BNS and BMO Canadian Banks (AR) Index Callable Contingent Coupon Notes. (indicated return of up to 10.08%)

Are these index related or linked to the TSX equity index?
Not sure how they can pay out so much, hopefully you can explain if these are a good option to use for income in a retirement portfolio.


Thnx 5I

Q: Hello 5i
I am a Canadian citizen and resident. I want to avoid US Estate tax on US stocks.
Which are the Canadian ETF providers that have ETFs containing US stocks?
Should I assume that Canadian branches of US ETF providers would still be vulnerable?
Do you have specific recommendations?
Many thanks for your ongoing great service !

Q: I keep hearing about the 60/40, 40/60 ratio of what you should be invested in with regards to Stocks and Bonds...

- I have Never held Any Bonds of Any Sort...Just Stocks...

- Please recommend some sort of Bond Investment I can consider that is somewhat safe, but Not ultra conservative...

- I remember when my parents said that Canada Savings Bonds were a good and reliable investment...a vintage memory...

Have a good weekend
Thanks
