Investment Q&A

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

Q: Can you clarify about companies that pay part of their dividend through "Return of Capital". Are these considered a poor investment because they are just giving you your own money back? Also, what happens when you have had 100% of your original capital investment returned to you - do you still continue to receive "return on capital" even though you have received all of your original investment back or is the distribution then reduced as you no longer have any of your original capital left to return?
Thanks.

Q: SLB is finally turning green, really green in our holdings. I did trim a bit today and appreciate having your opinion on whether we should buy, sell or hold? Or switch to other names in the same sectors that may have more room to run: Halliburton or Baker Hugues or diversifying the risk in IEZ - an ETF . Thank you!

Q: I understand that if a bond ETF has an average duration of 3 years, the value of the the ETF will fall by 3% if interest rates rise by 1%. Let's assume the ETF has a portfolio turnover rate of 100%. Is it correct to assume that, all other things unchanged, after one year the portfolio will have been replaced with bonds that yield 1% more, and therefore after another 3 years the 3% loss would be offset by the extra interest income earned?
