Q: I'm interested in investing in any North American companies that would benefit from the 5G network infrastructure that is being put in place in the world. I'm thinking of companies that would build 5G networks but it could also be companies that would benefit from 5G. Can you please list your top 3 choices? Thanks.

Q: In addition to my growth stocks (40% of my CDN portfolio), I have 'safe stocks' RY, T, ACQ, BIP.un in Canada and in US, I have AQN, AEP, NEE. (about 20% in US portfolio, so far). I notice that in the last year, these lo beta, ‘safe’ stocks have been performing as well as growth stocks. Because I think we’re in for more volatility, I’m interested in buying more lo-beta-with-some-growth stocks for the next few years. What do you think of these options complementing what I have? Can you pick two?
PLD
AMT
BEP
TERP
AWK
WTR
CWCO

Q: Hi. I'm continuing to transition from overweight CAD stocks to US equities. Could I have your preference (and rationale) for ONE each from the following four dyads:
US Telecom: VZ or T (i.e.,AT&T)
US Healthcare: ABT or MRK
US Real Estate: CCI or AMT
US Industrial: HON or UTX.
Thanks much!

Q: It is my understanding that that 5G signals will require a different type of transmission installation, namely smaller and much more numerous for the shorter distances involved. The two companies often mentioned are AMD American Tower and CCI Crown Castle however only the latter is specific to 5G. Am I missing something here as I am looking to invest in 5G transmission but don't want to go off in the wrong direction.
Thanks

Q: I have owned BCE for many years and have been happy with the returns it has provided. I am wondering if there is a company(s) that you may recommend that will compliment this holding other than the other big names (Telus etc) that will take advantage of the roll out of 5G. I have also owned Apple for many years as hardware provider. It is my understanding that exciting towers will not be used for 5G? Perhaps a tower company or chip provider? any Ideas and your rational would be much appreciated. Thanks as usual for the great service you provide!

Q: I'm interested in 2 lo-volatility stocks, with some dividend and some momentum for a minimum of 2 years. Most of these REITs mentioned have lots of hold recommendations, but very few buys despite their recent outperformance?? Are they overbought? Can you pick 1 or 2 US REITS for me and 2 CDN reits as well?

Q: I am looking for investing in one of the cell tower real estate in the USA. I would appreciate to know which one among the following would be better options now.
AMT, CCI, EQIX, DLR, SBAC

Q: Hi there,

For real estate exposure in the US i have held AMT for 10 years at about a 2% position. With the 5G rollout i beleive these tower services will become significantly more profitable as they sell 'extra space on the existing infrastructure. Your thoughts on this theme and if you were going to add would you add to AMT or CCI. AMT has performed better but has a lower yield. As well, CCI had lower earnings last quarter while AMTs earnings have been growing consistently. I am approaching retirement (next 5 years) so i like a decent dividend with a bit of growth. Thanks for all you do!
