Investment Q&A

Q: I am looking to sell half of my shares in TRP can you name two stocks that would have more upside in this space.

Q: I own these companies, some are doing great, and some I'm waiting to get my money back. I just sold TC energy, not really liking the direction it was heading and was thinking of buying enbridge. Did I do a mistake? Should I rebuy it? I'm looking for a 1 year hold. Or should I buy something different? In that case what do you recommend?
Thanks

Q: Hello, I'm looking to take a large position (for me!) as part of a generational investment approach and I'm trying to decide between the two or to invest in both.

Here are some the questions I was hoping you could include in your answer:

Do you see these as good candidates for a set-it-and-forget-it long term investment?
What are some of your reasons for preferring one over the other?
Do they ship a similar product mix?
Do they have similar revenue growth - both pipeline and non-pipeline?
Is there a difference in financial health/dividend stability?
Do they ship to similar places? eg Henry Hub for gas/Texas refineries vs cross-Canada vs international shipping ports?
Would you prefer one vs the other or would you allocate a portion in each?

Q: I'd like your opinion in regard to which of the above would be the best investment over the next five years? Perhaps you could rank them from highest to lowest in your opinion. I've included BIP because of their likely acquistion of IPL and the broad level of infrastructure that they represent. With thanks, Don

Q: hello 5i:
We have about a 2% position in ENB. While looking to add to our present position, I did a quick comparison with TRP and PPL. Using P/S, PE, P/CF, P/B, P/FE and Earnings Yield, it appears that PPL is the cheapest when current valuation is compared to 5 year averages. I know that you've recommended ENB as your favourite in this space and am wondering why, assuming my numbers are correct (derived from Morningstar). Can you enlighten me, as I know the future is more important than past metrics? Also, Morningstar has a -2.09 Earnings Yield for PPL. Is this correct and how is that possible?
I am willing to sell ENB and invest in only one of these companies (have held ENB for approximately 12 years, so obviously favour buy and hold).
thanks

Q: Hello! If you had to pick one, which would you side with and why?

Q: Now that the IPL,PPL combo is off the table which of the three has the best prospects going forward? Thanks Ron

Q: I hold both these stocks in a RRSP account. Is this a duplication. I like the yield on both . Thoughts

Q: Hello 5i Team,

If interest rates were too rise, how would you rank these pipeline companies in regards to their debt levels and their potential future growth.

I appreciate you response as all ways.

Q: Looking to add another pipeline for my Rif account. Have ENB already. Can you rate them in terms of dividend sustainability and modest growth, please and thanks.

Q: I hold both Interpipeline and Pembina. If the PPL takeover of IPL goes through, I will have a bit more PPL than I am comfortable with, and would consider moving a portion to a company in a similar space. Assuming the deal happens, how would you rate the combined PPL/IPL compared to similar alternatives ENB, KEY, TRP. Could you give a rating for each of the 4 on a scale of 1 -10 for desirability as a long term hold in a balanced portfolio. Looking at total return over a 5 - 10 year period. Thanks.

Q: An analysts recently warned off on PPL. He cautioned that PPL using a reduction in dividends, might develop a planned but delayed refinery. Something along the lines of what IPL is doing with Heartland.
Would you trade all, some or any, of a long term and large percentage holding in PPL for TRP ?

Q: Of these 3 companies, what would the order in which you would invest (as of today)?

Q: Hi Folks,
I have MFC in my RRSP account and it's been relatively flat since I bought it despite a good earnings report - I am thinking of switching to TRP - can I have your opinion please. Stick with MFC or go with TRP?
Thanks

Q: What do you think about TC Energy's latest quarter?

With the current valuation do you think it's a good time buy in?

Q: I have had a nice recovery in the pipelines that I hold (IPL TRP PPL ENB). I am contemplating selling one of them and buying BEP.UN. do you think this is a good idea? and if yes which one would you sell? many thanks Richard

Q: What do you think of this twenty stock dividend portfolio for a taxable account? I am focusing on high quality and it yields about 3.8% . Any changes you would make?

Q: Supposing the US enacts an effective climate change policy, shouldn't gas do better than oil/coal/tarsands, etc? If so, who among Canadian energy processors/transporters should realize the greatest benefit?

Q: I am considering either ENB or TRP as an income investment. Could you provide the dividend payout for each, and the percentage of gas vs oil in their pipelines. There is a lot of news about the potential closing of Enbridge line 5 in Michigan, and the affect on Canadians. But, what is the affect on the company? What percentage of their business depends on line 5 , and what are their alternatives if it is closed? Is TRP facing any similar challenges (aside from Keystone XL)? Which company do you prefer looking strictly at dividend sustainability and potential dividend growth?
Thank-you
