Investment Q&A

Q: I own Altagas and it has done well for me. I am considering adding to ALA or buying Capital Power. What would you recommend? Thank You.

Q: Our current Utilities holdings are BEP.UN, BIP.UN, CPX and FTS. We are overweight on each (compared to our other holdings). I'm comfortable with these companies and had been comfortable with the weightings, however we recently added BAM to our Financials for diversification (by trimming our CDN Bank exposure).

I'm currently thinking of adding another Utility, in part to reduce our overall Brookfield Exposure and to bring each of our utility holdings closer to "equal weight".

I'm not looking to add a covered call position or utility etf. (We already have full positions in PPL & ENB). We are retired and can be characterized as income investors.

Based on current market conditions, and our other utility holdings, which 2-3 companies (other than BIP, BEP, CPX and FTS) would you recommend for income and modest growth and why? Is there any one Utility company that you feel is currently the most attractive?

Q: in my non reg account I seek growth and income over the next 3 years which do you prefer between between KEY and ALA and your reasons why thanks Richard

Q: What do you think about this company. Do you see better growth or opportunities in the sector?
Thank you

Q: Would you consider ENB, TRP, ALA as energy stock? My weight is above 15% for energy and just wonder if any of these can be group in a different sector?

Thanks

Q: What is your opinion on AltaGas - is it a good investment for gas infrastructure?
For reference I also have Gibson Energy for oil infrastructure.
WCP and TOU are also owned.

Q: I am considering adding to these equities (ALA, BIP.UN, BN, CCA, CPX, DIR.UN, FTS, GSY, GWO, MFC, NWH.UN, TOU, TRP). Are there any you would not purchase more? In what order would you acquire for best overall combination of growth and dividend/distribution for the next two years.

Q: I recently put together a spreadsheet that pulls together all of the Canadian equity holdings that my wife and I have in our registered and non-registered accounts.

This is what we have in the Oil & Gas Sector:

• the three majors SU, CVE and CNQ
• the three pipes TRP, PPL and ENB
• and an assortment of other companies TOU, WCP, ARX, ALA, TPZ, MDI, MER

I’d like to trim this back to 6-8 holdings and, as well, have more of a balanced profile. What would you recommend? And if there are different O&G stocks you’d sub in, please recommend as well.

Thanks.

Q: Hello
I have ARX and ALA and some Tou (3 storks)
as natural gas has done well, my holdings do not seem to be able to match Peyto energy
wonder if you can add another name besides the 3 that I have to take advantage of the natural gas prices
thanks
Michael

Q: For a dividend account, in what order would you acquire and at what price. Thanks

Q: HI group i own the above stocks in the energy sector. Unfortunately some of them are lagers > Particularly NRGI ( down 23% have owned since inception???what gives Erik) Also worried about ARX ( Presently )up 36% but dropping rapidly in the last 6 months TOU ( breaking even but worried about performance as of late

ENB + FTS seem to me hanging in there So my question is what changes should i make while the sector is down and out. What should i do sell NRGI and buy TOU OR? (you suggestion please also should i keep or buy something else in the sector another thought is to ARX sell to buy TOU or ALT

Lastly the great AWAKING OF NATURAL GAS APPEARS TO ME TO BE STALLED YOUR COMMENTS AND SUGGESTION ON WHERE THE PRICE OF NATURAL GAS IN GENERAL IS GOING STALLED AND WHAT I SHOILD DO WITH MY ENERGY PORTFOLIO PLEASE thanks FOR YOUR HELP

Q: What is the best way to play Utilities in Canada & US? Stocks or ETFs? Which ones? Thanks!

Q: I am considering triming the following stocks ALA, BDT, CVE, EFN, GSY, GWO, IAG, MEG, PEY, TVE, TVK, WCP and X. If I do trim, there will be significant Capital Gains. How would you rank them for total return over the next 2 years? How would you rank them for trimming and if different than above ranking, please advise the reason for the difference ? Thanks

Q: Which of these two pipelines will benefit more from LNG Canada commencing operations?

Q: what do you think of recent results, are they good buys at these levels thanks

Q: Planning on setting up an income portfolio of dividend growing equities. Would the above stocks meet this objective. Already own BAM, BNS, CNQ, DIR.UN, ENB, FRU, FTS, IFC, PEY, POW, SLFm TRP and WCP. Are there other equities other than the above list that you would recommend substituting for one or more of them? Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: I have done good with ala, have a good capital gain in my tsfa, I wnt to sell it and guy something else, the yield is down to about 3%, I don't see a lot of upside in the dividend, thinking of buying sobo, their yield 7 %, I have a lot in pipelines have have done well with them, what say you, do have over stocks that you would suggest, looking for yield, and I have lots in the banks already

Thanks

Q: How would you rank for purchase of ALA, BEPC, EFX, EIF, EQB, MFC, NA, NPI, NTR, PSI, SOBI, SOB, SU, WSP for a income focused portfolio?

Q: What do you make of the recent agreement between these two companies? Is it significant to either? Would you be a buyer of either of these two?

Q: Hi Guys

I hold AltaGas and was thinking of swapping for South Bow. Thinking better dividend at a minimum. What are your thought on this switch for a long term hold. Which do you think will have teh better overall return 5 years out?
