Q: Hi Folks,

My RRSP portfolio consists of the above stocks all with relatively the same weighing. Can you suggest 5 names or so, (CDN and U.S) that I take a look at that would complement the above? I am looking for a company that would be a good buy today for both income and capital appreciation - total return.
Thanks

Q: Good morning,

My intention is to move some US $ from my US Non Registered account to my CDN $ Non Registered account through a journal transfer.

I just sold a US ETF and with the proceeds purchased TRP.US

Q1. Are the TRP.US dividends paid in US $ or CDN$?

Q2. Do the TRP.US dividends generated in the US Non Reg Acct qualify for the Canadian Dividend Tax Credit?

Q3. Can I simply call my TD Direct Investing broker to move TRP.US from my US Non Reg Acct to my CDN Non Reg acct?

Thank you and I'll await for your response to these three questions.

Q: Two companies in different sectors. My intent is to adjust my weightings. Which company:

- Has the most favourable debt situation (acknowledging that TRP is a bit different being utility-like) ?

- Has the best total return potential in the long term?

- Has the best moat if it exists?

- Can withstand the present rate environment better - assuming rates don’t drop any time soon.

Thanks.

Q: Several analysts during the last couple of weeks recommended on BNN either sell or don't buy TRP.
Can you please comment whether, in your opinion, TRP is a hold or sell ?
Will you recommend averaging down at this level ?
Will also appreciate any comments on the sustainability of the dividend.
Looking at the insider buying/selling information of my discount broker I do not see any substantial ownership by senior management. Can you confirm this ?
Please deduct as many credits as necessary.
Thanks

Q: Could you comment as to who is the owner of the Coastal Gaslink Pipeline and which companies should benefit the most when the pipeline is complete.

Q: These are my wife's holdings in her non-registered account. Held these for very long time. EMP.A I bought for her maybe 5 years ago when down a lot. Sitting on a fair bit of cash. Thinking of adding to banks at some point (recession?) or adding BCE and EIF? T is small holding at 2000 shs. Comments/suggestions please. Oh, own ETF ZUE for quite a while also. RRSP has other banks +++

Q: Hello 5i Team,
I am looking at adding another dividend name to my RRSP portfolio. I already own ENB, TRP, and PPL in the energy infrastructure space, and am thinking of starting a position in Williams Companies. It has a lower yield than the other three at present, but how does it compare in terms of valuation (P/E, debt ratios, etc.) Is it a "safer" investment than the other three? Given that it's nearly impossible to build a new pipeline in Canada anymore, does it have a better future?
Much appreciated,
Brian

Q: The above are my overweighted energy holdings. Can you please prioritize them as I have to reduce my weighting. Is there any I should exit. Again Thanks in advance.

Q: For a retired investor seeking stable dividends and some growth, how would you rank these companies if one had $100,000 to invest? Are there other companies you would recommend and how would they fit into the rankings?. Current portfolio is quite well diversified, so sector is not an issue. Thank you, Ian
