Investment Q&A

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

Q: Recently bought this stock because of the dividend security(hopefully) but I'm surprised by the downward pressure on this stock with the dividend ex-date just 2 days away I could be wrong but wouldn't some people just be hanging on for the ex date and then possibly dumping it as it almost seems to be in free fall despite being so close to that date your thoughts on this theory and also on the company here getting dangerously close to two digits YIKES thx

Q: Looking to add TRP ( already have ENB ) to my RRSP for some income but am somewhat concerned if there were to be a recession - would this be considered a "Utility " thus less likely to take a hard hit or would I be better looking at BEP.UN, FTS, AQN or EMA and if so, which would you recommend at this time ? Your opinion is greatly appreciated.
thanks

Q: I understand an earnings estimate is an analyst(s) estimate for a company's future quarterly or annual earnings per share. How important is looking forward (ex. 2 yr guidance)? How do analyst(s) derive future earning estimates? Is there any input from the firm itself? Is there analyst bias? Which would you say takes a higher priority... EPS expectations or ROIC past performance when I'm deciding on a investment in a company? Is TD webbroker's "EPS Consensus Expectations" a reliable / reasonable source of information?

Q: I saw Samir Manji from Sandpiper Group on with A. McCreath on BNN on Fri. He made an interesting case for HBC but that is not what I want to ask about. I noticed his Co. also took a position in EXE. It looks like the stock made a comeback off of that purchase. Given how he finds hidden value in these companies I was wondering if you could speculate about what he sees in EXE and how much more value there is. I am attracted undervalued divvy plays by predilection.

Q: I have held XRE for over 10 yr. in RRSP - so, with dividends I am up over 400%. I was thinking of selling this ETF and buying BPY.UN because the latter regularly increases dividends and is a broader based property/real estate holding company. I did not think it prudent to own both: either would be a very small holding in the portfolio.
