Investment Q&A

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

Q: I know that utility and pipeline companies usually have higher than normal debt levels but would any of these cause you concern? A quick comment on each company would be appreciated and whether you would buy, hold or sell. Thank you!

Q: Good morning,

Just looking for confirmation of the recently-announced TRP and SOBO dividends.

I see TRP @ C$0.823 for an indicative yield of 4.85%.
I see SOBO @ US$.50, for an indicative C$ yield of ~ 8.5%.

It would seem to me that if one is + on the space, given recent analyst estimates for both companies, owning both makes sense over the near-term. While I like the SOBO yield, I had forgotten that the TRP yield would drop a bit.

Thanks as always.

Q: Hello,

With the interest rate is trending lower, the utility sector should benefit from it. Can you please ranking the above company for 3-5 years holding?

Q: Once upon a time…..(1990) I bought shares of TRP. Many events around TRP since then, including recent SOBO spinoff, but I still own some of my original shares. You might be too young for this, but in 1994, a change was made to Capital Gains Exemptions law. We could lock Capital Gains as of Fev22,1994, in filing Form T664, and claim them later by increasing ACB. I still have my personal notes for this!. By any chance would you -or your subscribers- know if CRA keeps records as far as this? CRA web site shows records for 2012+. In 1994, tax returns and any other documents were made on paper of course. Thanks again.

Q: Can you please explain what all this means, thanks.
The TSX will implement an "if, as and when issued" trading market commencing Sept. 25, 2024 and ending at the close of business on Oct. 1, 2024 for TC Energy Common Shares and common shares of South Bow (South Bow Common Shares).
The TC Energy Common Shares will resume "regular way" trading on the TSX and the NYSE on Oct. 2, 2024.
The spinoff is on Sep. 25th and the ex-dividend date for TRP is the 27th.

Q: Can you identify of the 10 top oil companies in Canada which ones receive WTI vs WCS oil pricing? How would you rank these companies for both risk and total return?

Q: TC Energy has set the date for the South Bow spin off (I believe Oct/24 - not sure if it was the beginning or end of month) I read that the spin off will not be subject to capital gains until it's sold, that much seems straight forward.

Can you please help me understand how the Average Cost Base will be established, will it be the price of the South Bow Shares at the outset of trading on day one?? I'm assuming the Cost Base for the remaining TC Energy shares stays the same, even tho the share price will be reduced to reflect the pricing of South Bow.

Thanks
