Q: I have owned TRP and ENB for years (10+) and have done well with both stocks. They have now become less than 1/2 weight positions at around 4% of my total portfolio. I was thinking of adding to them but I've been asking myself if I really want to add to positions when it's becoming just as difficult to repair pipelines as it is to build them. The dividends are nice but they haven't offset the decline in the respective stock prices so on a total return basis both companies are still negative for the year. I was thinking of switching out of TRP and ENB into VZ where I can get a similar dividend yield in a utility sector name but remove some of the industry noise associated with pipelines. Thoughts? Thanks

Q: You consistently state that Enbridge is one of your favorites. Why? In light of the current anti-carbon sentiment of the general public and current sadsack government I am seriously considering selling. Sure the dividend is great, but in 5 years the stock price has declined from $60 to $40. What could possibly happen to have the price appreciate back up to the $60 level?

Enbridge Inc Pref Ser D
This prefered is currently yielding around 9%. It will reset in Feb 2023. Since interests rates are expected to remain low for the next year or two, is this a safer way to invest in a RIFF for the next 2 years? I expect to sell these shares in 2 years to meet the mandatory withdrawals. What risks should I be concerned about? Other then interest rates going down from here, what can possibly drive the share price further down ?
