Investment Q&A

Q: I am absolutely stunned by your constant promotion of BN.Why is this?
The dividend is almost none.
They have a high portion of their investments in commercial real estate,which looks more scary by the day.
The market keep telling us for a long time that BN is overpriced.
So why oh why do you keep mentioning BN in a favorable manner?
I know they are around for a long time,but so was Nortel and GE.

Q: Is Nutrien screaming buy?

Q: I am looking for a couple of US dividend-paying companies that provide decent yields for retirement income. Several of the companies that you have suggested are providing growing dividends and some equity growth but the yields are low. I am currently looking at AMGN, BX and EXR. I am leaning towards BX as I think property could be poised for growth but I am concerned that the dividend seems to jump around. Were special dividends paid in the past few years or has the payout been negatively affected by declining rental income?

Which of the three would you prefer given the desire for increased income, stability of income, future dividend growth and some equity growth? (or are there other suggestion you may have)

Appreciate your insight.

Q: In Saturday's Globe and Mail, Rob Carrick recommended investing in target maturity bond ETFs which, unlike traditional bond ETFs, pay the initial investment plus interest i on the maturity date.

Do you see any potential negatives for these types of bond ETFs? Are if there are any such ETFs that you would recommend?

Company has too much retail orientation (very hard business).
Auto-body shops require large capital investments.
Strong franchise - but would wait for shares to fall before investing. “

This is what a recent guest on bnn said about Boyd recently. I have to say that I am quite surprised and pleased with the way Boyd has risen from the ashes in the past year. But, like the above mentioned guest, i wonder if it is in a bit of a hard business. It is difficult for me to really judge, though, so i thought that I would lean on your wonderful slogan that diy investing doesn’t mean you have to be on your own, and so i ask your opinion on this.
Thanks as always

Q: Rick Reider at Blackrock has started a new income fund listed as BINC on NYSE. Would ask you to examine this fund and provide any views, concerns, etc you can at this early stage. Am I correct that it has no yield such that it would only produce capital gain or loss once sold and therefore no tax while held from dividend income. Aside from its lack of track record at this point does the intended approach of this fund and the reputation and history of the manager lead you to a possible positive view of this as a worthy income investment for an investor preferring capital appreciation over yield. Thank you..
