Investment Q&A

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

Q: Just a follow up to my question about my dividend sustainability question for BDI. You say the dividend was cut; do you mean it was cut entirely (to zero)? My ticker and the Globe show an 8% dividend.

So, if:

1) there is no dividend, what source should I be using when looking at stocks to make sure I have the whole picture.

2) if the dividend is still 7.9%, is that sustainable?

Thanks again,

Rick

Q: How vulnerable do you see telecomm sector profits and dividends, and BCE's situation in particular, to (i) major advertisers moving advertising dollars from traditional TV to social media and video streaming platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Netflix, etc, and (ii) to a continuing trend to consumers eliminating traditional home phones? Thank you.

Q: I am not a big fan of gold as a place to be in the event of a disaster (rather be in the banks), and how much of a weighting of 5% would help your portfolio anyways.
Having said that, what is your opinion of OR if one decided to be in gold? Is it suitable as a long-term hold? Thanks

Q: RE: Health care exposure

Hello, I need to add into the healthcare sector to have proper portfolio diversification.

I sold my CRX shares a while back, and today I am looking buying some CVS and MCK shares.

I might buy GUD in the future but right now I want to buy bigger cap companies.

May I have your opinion on these two companies for LONG term BUY and HOLD strategy?

Thank you very much and have a GREAT day!

Stephane
