Q: I have a ladder of rate reset preferred shares that pay a nice yield. My anticipated yield when they reset is looking very attractive. They seemed to be in favour in 2021. Despite rising rates in 2022, they have had a very poor year this year (across the board, not just my holdings). Why is that ?

Thanks,
Mark

Q: I understand that ~30% of ZWU dividend is ROC. Would you say this is the case across the board for all covered call ETFs? Am looking at XYLD with this spectacular dividend, and am tempted.
And GE- industrial sector, well diversified, (seemingly) well priced
What do you think?
Thanks Jerry

Q: Questions on Topicus:

What makes Topicus different from any other software company - i.e. what makes it more attractive relative to others?

Since it's operations are European, does it currently trade at comparable European valuations?

The economic outlook for Europe appears to be worse than North America. Is this not a concern over the short to medium term?

How do Topicus' current metrics compare to when it first traded?

If you were to choose 3 highest-conviction Canadian growth stocks with similar market cap / risk profile / management quality, would Topicus be one of them?

Q: Why is Gold and related stocks doing badly? Should it not do better in recession or when stock market is tanking and interest rates rising? What are your opinion about the future prospects in near and long term? (My exposure to these is through XGD, FNV and AEM)

Q: I find your Watch List very useful and especially the weekly email of all the questions on the list. However, I can't find a way to delete companies I am no longer interested in. Adding companies is easy but I don't want an ever-growing weekly email. Please advise.

Q: I hold riocan for income and some growth and I am up at 30% so far. For more income, do you think it is a good idea to sell and buy the hamilton enhanced us covered call ETF ( HYLD.TO ) that has a dividend of 13% at the moment ? Advise me if you have a better suggestion or simply do nothing and keep riocan. BTW it is in a taxable account so I have to pay taxes on the move. Thanks and have a nice day.
