Q: Dear 5i,
In regards to BEPC:CA, BEP.UN:CA, BEPC:US, BEP:US and stock Beta.
Your web site reports: 0.80, 0.76, 1.09 and 0.87 respectively.
Does your web site report 3 Year Beta? If not, what is it? What is a reasonable Year Beta statistic to consider? Can you help explain why the Beta varies quite dramatically with the four different Brookfield Renewable tickers? There doesn't seem to be any obvious correlation between the Corporate versions and the different Currencies?

Q: Good morning,
May I have 5is opinion (pros and cons) regarding the following please.
I have just rolled my RSP into a RIF and am thinking of selling AQN and SPB and consolidating into ZWU. My thinking is that this will in a simpler more stable way of provide equal to better performance (income with some growth) over time. Do my thoughts have merit? I also hold BEP.UN as well as FTS.
Thank you for your thoughts and opinion.

Q: Good Afternoon,
I have owned Killam for a while. There has been no appreciable growth or dividend increase. What is the likelihood of either happening. Would I be better off selling Killam and purchasing another stock? If so, what stock would you suggest that would offer some growth and a good dividend. There is no tax implications as I hold Killam in my TFSA.
Thanks in advance for your opinion.

Q: I am low in the utility sector. Is this a good time to buy? Could you please provide 4 names and rate them them in order of preference and why. Would prefer US or international exposure though Canadian is fine as well. Thank you.
Q: If a series of events were to occur that would cause the long end of the yield curve to spike to 10%, how does this affect highly indebted companies such as ENB, TRP and BEP.UN ? What measures can they take to avoid bankruptcy in that scenario, and what would be your level of confidence that they could ?
As a 2nd part to this question, what are your top 5 Canadian dividend-paying stocks that would have balance sheets that one would not necessarily need to be concerned about ? i.e. durability under the above situation.

Q: Many companies have become addicted to low interest rates over the last decade. Assuming that interest rates stay where they are for years to come (a rate once considered somewhat "normal"), do you see any problem with any of these blue chip stocks maintaining their dividend ? I'm sure over the course of the next 5 years or so some of these companies will need to renew debt at higher rates.

Q: Why are renewable energy stocks like the three names above performed so poorly in the last year or two? Isn't all governments are promoting renewable energies and these stocks should flourish and not sink?
Q: Can I get your pick between the two?
Can you analyse last 3 years finances and provide some commentary on future growth for both?
Thank you

Q: Can I have your analysis on these two companies recently announced earnings and your overall opinion on these two securities.
Q: Hi,
The company is downgraded by many firms. Has the future business plan is below investment grade compared to other Brookfield companies? Last year they acquired Westinghouse. The company has lowered dividend for past two year (2020 US$ 0.434 * 4), (2021 US$ 030375 * 4) and (2022 US$0.32 * 4). This is the weakest company among the Brookfield Group. My question is whether Westinghouse acquisition is not a profitable one or too early to say? Is it advisable to invest some amount in BRE.un just to take advantage of weakness in stock price at this time or better put money in BBU.un? I hold all the Brookfield Group companies that issues through spinoffs.
Thanks
Piyush

Q: Hello All,
Is it possible to rank my list of utility companies sorting via most financially vulnerable therefore most likely to underperform because of the increased cost of financing. i.e worst to best please.
Is that a blunt but reasonable filter?
Could it be that the "worst" companies have been so badly beaten up that they may be worth adding to for the long haul?
Many thanks

Q: I have both BEP.UN and BEPC in an unregistered margin account and for simplicity sake would to only hold one of them. Is there any particular advantage of one over the other in an unregistered account? Thanks.
