Investment Q&A

Q: Hi Team,
According to recent updates from the company, Well Health seems to be firing on all cylinders. I am trying to understand why it's sitting near year lows. It does not seem appropriate to me for investors to be selling it off like a speculative Tech name. Healthcare will always be needed, and Telehealth should keep advancing...and is in the very very early stages. Management has a stellar history, revenues are climbing rapidly with aquisitions; with all this in mind...is it time to buy more of this name? Or am I missing something here? Thanks

Shane.

Q: hello 5i:

Q: US Div Stocks vs CAD Div Stocks? I know the Dividend Tax Credit only applies to Canadian Stocks, but these days some good US STocks are paying 9 to 11 %. What is the Dividend Tax Credit worth in terms of %? I guess it is still better to buy Canadian Div Stocks:
The federal dividend tax credit as a percentage of taxable dividends is 15.0198% for eligible dividends and 9.0301% for non-eligible dividends.

Q: Good morning folks. I am a relatively cautious retired income investor. I would appreciate your thoughts on DBM. The dividend is attractive. What do you think of the company's outlook? Thanks.

Q: I am moving toward retirement and looking for stocks with a Dividend of 4% plus. Could you suggest some Canadian and US companies that you feel are good value in todays market or ones to watch for this fall if things go down- separate lists please. All categories except financials as I'm overweight there. I'm interested in companies that can ride a recession with higher interest rates. Thank you!

Q: Looking to add to my income portfolio and trying to decide between QYLD, RYLD, XYLD, HHL-U and Keg-un. Can you recommend which you would select for a patient 68 year old and your reasoning behind your choice please. Thanks again.

Q: Re Gary's question on the 28th re place to park some money. I have a TD Investment Savings Account TDB8150 that has no fees, units are $10. each and the current rate is 2.25 % interest calculated and paid monthly. I opted to reinvvest the monthly interest for more units. Easy access to funds and I also use it for excess cash in my registered accounts. Interest is increased on a reg basis as rates change. I highly recommend it. Hereis a link to the page

Q: If you had the option to invest in just one of these energy stocks at this time (Teck.Ca or Bir) which would it be?

Q: Hi Peter, price is back again to where it was in 2007. Is it the nature of the business, management, poor bets during boom times etc ? Any positive catalysts you see ? Do you think the dividend is at risk, and would you enter ? Thank you.

Q: Algoma recently undertook a Substantial Issuer Bid where they will be retiring 28% of their shares outstanding. What your thoughts on how this impacts the outlook for the shares and warrants going forward ? I don't recall seeing a company reduce their share count by so much at once before.

Q: Not a question but a comment re rrif mandatory withdrawals. Rather than sell a stock, You can do a withdrawal in kind and transfer the stock to your cash account. That way you can defer decision re which stock “to sell” if you don’t really want to sell.

Q: Hello - I have sold Telodoc for a large tax loss. Would like to recover some of my loss. Do you think this is a good company to have? What are your thoughts on management?

Q: I've held PBH for about 5 years and i'm in the green a little, and collected a small dividend over the years. But the gains have been a bit underwhelming. As the market has dropped and there are many high quality growthier options trading at lower valuations I wonder if its time to cut PBH. With PBH for 5 years there has always seemed to be an excuse/reason from them as to why they are under performing. Well before covid they were struggling with swing flu, staffing issues, FX issues, and others, then covid hit and obviously again they are struggling with lockdowns, inflation, staffing, etc etc etc. Is there a good reason to hold a company that only seems to perform well in ideal market situations, which in reality is almost never? Thx

Q: Whats your read on their earnings?
