Investment Q&A

Q: Would you comment on Enbridge? The dividend is not covered by the present reported EPS. A comparison to TRP would be appreciated

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and Team,

I hold BNS, BEP.UN, FTS, KXS, PBH and TRP in my child's RESP account and it has been performing quite well. With another 8 years to go, should I just add to the existing positions or add something else?

Thanks.

Q: I notice that Enb is in your energy sector.Would KEy,Ppl and Trp be rated as energy? I recall that you recommended a 5% weighting in energy. How much of that would be for energy producers and how does those weightings compare to the the Tse energy sector index sector?

Q: what is your opinion on growth on trp is it us or can listed it never appears on bnn listings

Q: ENB is u favourite.TRP in the same space had appeared on the Tech Analysis( which is very good) on Sep 10.Would U prefer ENB over TRP? or buy both? or buy TRP? or do not touch? Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: I am aiming for a 20-stock (or slightly less) portfolio of dividend payers. So each position will be 5% or slightly more.

In the pipeline / utility sectors I currently have ENB, TRP and BEP.UN. I am hoping to add one of the stocks below. I have a preference for good dividend growth and good management, but would prefer not to have too much overlap with BEP.UN if possible. Mind you, I suppose BEP.UN is quite diversified geographically which might make a case for being different anyway (your opinion ?). Which one would be the best fit, or is BEP.UN enough ?......

Canadian Utilities (CU)
Fortis (FTS)
Emera (EMA)
Algonquin Power (AQN)

Thanks.
Jim

Q: Looking to add TRP ( already have ENB ) to my RRSP for some income but am somewhat concerned if there were to be a recession - would this be considered a "Utility " thus less likely to take a hard hit or would I be better looking at BEP.UN, FTS, AQN or EMA and if so, which would you recommend at this time ? Your opinion is greatly appreciated.
thanks

Q: Hello there,
For the above stocks, which are in my RRSP, gains in about a year are 15%, 37%,26% and 15% respectively. I didn’t plan it but just happened to buy approx $5k in each of these on a near 52 week low I guess.
I read a comment about letting your winners run, but also am learning about taking profits and not being greedy for more.
What do you look for to make a smart decision, please?
In the examples given, are any obvious sells or keeps?
Thank you for your help!

Q: I am trying to figure out my sector distribution. I think that some stocks could be classified in a couple sectors. Could you please let me know what percentage of the following would you allocate to different sectors? For example, would you consider L to be 90% Cons Staples and 10% Healthcare?

L Cons Staples:Healthcare
CTC.A Cons Staples:Cons Discret
ENB Energy:Utilities
TRP Energy:Utilities
SIS Industrial:Healthcare

Are there any others of note that you can think of?

Thank you,

Fed

Q: I am trying to clean up my Energy sector. I have the following: CPG, CVE, ERF, HSE, IMO, SU, TRP, VET, MX Could you please place them in order, starting with first to sell.

Also, could you please let me know which companies I should buy with the proceeds. I have a very long timeline, and I feel that companies that are rather low right now may jump a fair bit when the price of oil rebounds.

If there are any other companies that you would suggest to buy, please include them as well.


Thank you once again,

Fed

Q: At the current time, do you have a preference of one over the other as an investment (ignoring any other factors re portfolio construction)? thanks.

Q: HI,

I have about a 15% position of TRP in
my RRSP and was thinking of selling and replacing with a non-energy related equivalent dividend stock. I also have large positions of GSY, TD, SHOP, ENB, BNS, AAPL, GOOGL, SPY, V, JPM so would not add to these.

What would you recommend? Thank you.

Q: I own both TRP long time and Enb a year. I was thinking of selling one. Which one would u keep. I also own small position in KEY. I am up on TRP and almost even on ENB

Q: TRP, ENB, CJ, SGY, IPL, SU, TOU, VET, TOG, CPG.

At $50 - 55 WTI which of the following would have the best possible chance at :

A. Enough cash flow to cover dividends.
B. Enough cash to sustain or improve current balance sheet.
C. Able to sustain current production levels that would not negatively affect the above from the above.

please list the stocks order of best first for each category
thanks Yossi

Q: Your opinion on this company, please.

Thank you, Walter

Q: Looking to lighten up on TRP and BCE and use the proceeds to purchase something of similar quality but perhaps more potential growth.Thinking to purchase BAM.What do you folks think and would you have other suggestions?Income and sector not an issue.Appreciate your input.

Q: How much growth (price + dividend growth) are you expecting individually from these dividend stocks in the next 3-5 years? Please arrange these stocks with the most growth to the least growth.

Q: I have all these stocks in my non-registered account, I have some money to deploy. My two smallest holdings are CP and WCN, should I add to either one or would you suggest a new stock?

Q: I was stopped out on ENB a while ago but now would like to reenter the sector. Which pipeline company would you buy today for some growth as well as the steady dividend ?
Thanks
Sharon

Q: Thank you for for answer yesterday about setting up my parent's investments. To summarize, they are very conservative, above 80 years old, and looking for safety and income.

I would now like to ask you about the distribution of the equity component of the investments (composing only 17% of the total, the rest being in bonds, preferred, and GICs). Those below are all in equal weight. What do you thing?

BEP.UN, BCE, BNS, CM, CU, ENB, TRP
XHC for healthcare exposure
IWO for US growth
VGG for US exposure
XEF (in a half position) for international exposure
VEE (in a half position) for emerging market exposure

Could you please suggest some more to round things out? I need another 5 or 6 stocks.


Also, do you have any objection to using ZAG and HYGH as bond substitutes for their conservative portfolio? I am buying individual preferred shares for that component.

Thank you once again,

Fed
