Q: Hello,
If one would like to deploy 50k, should that be across the three Brookfield companies above or would it be better with just one (some of them) or do you have better names in the sector that prefer for a 2-3 years hold?
BIP.un is down a lot today. Any reason for it?
Would you buy now or wait until the new year?
Thanks

Q: Hi 5i: I have two questions - please charge as appropriate.
(1) I have been holding CU in a dividend reinvestment account for about three years. The account focusses on stocks that provide a good dividend that is increased regularly (the usual Canadian suspects). CU has consistently underperformed the other stocks, and I'm wondering what the future holds, in particular given the changes in Alberta's approach to coal-based electricity generation.
(2) Could you give me data on dividend growth rates for EMA and BEP.UN?
Many thanks for your great advice and service.

Q: Hello 5i:
looking for "best" ideas for an income stock or stocks, to stay away from bonds. Growth is not a factor; I'm looking for real stability, both of price and dividend. I hold some ET, AD and could add to them. Have no preferreds and have thought about this space. Your take and ideas please
thanks

Q: Hi,
I have 1/2 positions in FTS & AQN now. I'm considering adding another 1/2 position to utilities. I could get a 1/2 position in BEP.un or add to FTS and/or AQN.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Gord

Q: Hi, I have a number of renewable energy companies in my portfolio including the above, which I treat as a mini ETF, and they have performed wonderfully with both yield and growth. They have pulled back with the election however. Have you changed your view on any companies in this area, and if so which ones?
Q: Hi,
I've found myself having a position in both these companies. Do you see long term value in keeping both, or do you think there's too much overlap between them? I have been thinking about buying into marijuana stock now and would be rolling any money from a potential sale into it.
Thanks

Q: Can you give me the 3 and 5 year growth in FFO for each of the above? Also, global warming is expected to reduce brazilian river volumes by 30% in the next 20 years sa recent NYT article stated. Will this slow bep down or can they work around it? Thanks
Q: In view of rising interest rates and Trump which company would you prefer for income and some growth over the next 3 to 5 years?
Q: I have an income portfolio that is patterned after your model income portfolio with a few differences. My portfolio currently has 21 positions with a 5% holding in each of BEP.un and BIP.un. Do have any thoughts on the merits of holding both these companies in the portfolio? Should one be sold? If so, which one and why? Thanks
Q: can you account for the recent weakness in BEP.UN (Brookfield Renewable Energy Partners)
Q: I would like to add to my portfolio either BIP.UN or BEP.UN. Which one is preferable, or should I choose soemthing else.
Q: Hi,
BEP.UN got hammered today after its Q3 results, which when compared to 2015 Q3 looked pretty good imo. Could you please provide some insight/ideas as to why it was down 4.25% today? And how come they have negative EPS? (is it because of the $200 million in depreciation?)
I plan on holding them for a long time and am thinking of buying more
Thanks for your insight!

Q: What are your comments on BPY's results and which company would you prefer as a long term hold between BPY, BIP and BEP (or hold all 3).
Q: I've owned this stock for some years and have been disappointed with its movement. I do like the management of the Brookfield companies in general and would like to consider trading out my position with another Brookfield company. What is your opinion on 'BOX' and might you prioritize another Brookfield company?
Q: This stock has had a great run but its latest results, which seemed to be pretty solid, didn't move the stock. Do you think most of the growth is pretty much wrung out of it now and that it should be viewed as largely an income stock? The main reason for my question is that I am currently more interested in a stock that combines both growth and income such as FEZ or BEP.(sector not important)
Appreciate your insight.

Q: I have about 9% in utilities in an otherwise balanced portfolio. All these companies have dropped from 5 to 10% in value over the last while. Can you explain this. Should I lighten up on utilities, and if so, which one(s) should I sell? Thanks.
