Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am close to retirement and am interested in purchasing a conservative, safer, ETF to be held for the forseeable future in an investment (not registered) account. I am looking for a non-Canadian equity investment, and do not necessarily seek high dividends. What is your opinion of the "dividend aristocrats" investment strategy and of the DGRO-N ETF? Is there a better ETF which suits my investment goals which you would recommend?

Thank you for all of the excellent advice which your service offers!

Q: Hi 5i,
I know that US stocks are not the main focus but I have been watching Resmed for awhile and saw that it tanked 20% the other day on an off earnings report. This looks to have been a fairly strong stock over the last few years. Any comments you can make on them? Would they fit in your US growth stock list?

Thank you

Q: Hi,
In the year ended Oct-2018, revenue was up more than 30%, but earnings did not increase that much. Does this signals that the last acquisition is not as successful as the company expected or there are some onetime charges which has brought the net earnings down. If I want to add some money at this price, should I buy CCL.b or put money in TCL.A?
Thanks
Piyush

Q: I am a young retiree and am not allergic to volatility. I own each of the above REITS in my RRSP or TSFA for tax purposes. They represent collectively 7% of my total portfolios including my taxable account. My taxable account holds a mix of growth and dividend paying companies. It's a rather large holding. I don't own bonds because I don't understand the first thing about bonds but currently own 23% in money market or Guarantied Cash Deposits. I would like to add to my revenue generating part and would like to tone the risk down a bit. Where would you go from here?

Thank you very much for your support.

Q: Hello Peter,
I would appreciate some explanation as to why investors may see the equity investment into Canopy (Constellation) and Cronos (Altria) as more positive than joint partnerships formed by Hexo (Molsons) and Tilray (Anheuser-Busch). I would think the partnerships show greater commitment by Hexo and Tilray management not to give up so much control of the companies. However, the equity investment could be seen as infusing cash and they are US companies (Constellation and Altria) with lots of exposure. Would you diversify your monies across all four or forget Hexo and Tilray as the market does not seem to like what they did or atleast not as much as Canopy and Cronos. Thanks very much.
