Q: I know your not crazy about this stock,but looking at it from purely an income play the dividend has already been cut and its pays 7% and other than a couple very temporary blips its basically at an all time low(i know could still drop more)im just thinking i could possibly hold this company between 5.50 and 7.00 for a long time and collect a nice payout and who knows the canadian landscape of these types of companies is getting smaller every year,could be a take out candidate,could you tell me the payout ratio,new management any possible head or tail winds you see in the next couple of years possibly... THANKS
Q: Hi Team,
I hold VHI in my tfsa, down 20% now. Would it be considered a "high grade" move to sell it now and buy CSU now that it is also down as much or more than VHI in the last year? Would my return prospects from here with CSU be just as high as compared to sticking with VHI? Would you advise this move?

Q: I notice that precious metals have taken off, I only own AEM. Is it too late to invest in another stock. WPM is in your balanced portfolio, but looks expensive. What are your recommendations to add to my portfolio now. Would also consider a ETF
Thanks Stephen
Q: Looking for a Canadian based etf that offers exposure to the AI sector. Your thoughts on the above noted one and any better alternatives would be appreciated.
Q: Hello, I have these 3 pipeline cos plus BIPC and I would like to reduce these to 2 stocks (should be sufficient to cover the sector) among ENB, PPL and KEY. I want to keep BIPC. Which ones should I keep and why? I have held these 3 stocks for over 20 years and plan to hold 2 of these for at least another 5 years, possibly 10. Thanks
Q: This ETF was mentioned the other day in an answer. My question is in part about it…can you comment on its MER, volatility, liquidity and your overall assessment about it. But also, can you suggest what size market cap you would want to see an ETF have to be comfortable with taking a position of some size? Thanks for your excellent service.
Q: Another question, thought on Constellation. I have held this stock for many years and of course have done very well but my patience is running thin. Don't you think that management owes its shareholders something rather than not releasing any information. remaining quiet was fine when the stock was increasing double digits per year but now how about making a statement rather than silence that keeps the shareholders guessing. My thoughts. Wouldn't you think the large shareholders would want and deserve some answers.
I wrote to CSU's investors relations asking them if they would be considering to start buying AI companies and he answered the following.
We have hundreds of AI initiatives taking place across CSI today and have very senior individuals spending a lot of time and effort ensuring we are not being complacent. We plan on presenting more on Ai at our AGM in May. I don’t think we need to change our acquisition strategy to stay relevant. Thanks.
