Q: As EMA moves up I am wondering if I should book profits and look to an alternate choice in the sector. I had the same thought on my CPX shares when they were in the mid $60s and failed to act leaving me down significantly on those now. I would hate to repeat the error. Should I be more confident in the staying power of EMA is, I guess, the crux of the question.

Q: It seems the mid-stream oil and gas companies are holding up fairly well in this world of uncertainty. I would like to take positions in all, or some of these companies.
Are there any of these that you would not invest in at this time? If so, why not?
It would also be helpful if you would rank order them for me in terms of reliability of dividends and value at this time.
If you think there are other mid-streamers you like please feel free to include them.

Q: As a sector goes, I am so confused by the Canadian "utilities" over the last 5 years.
Why is it so heterogenous in performance, FTS, CU, EMA, ENB,H, TRP ? Why did ENB AND TRP seem to rebound in 2024?

Q: My wife and I are mainly dividend investors. We tend to hold our stocks for many years. Due to the significant increase in the value of our stocks this year, we are considering reducing the percentage of some stocks in our portfolio by about 10%.
Could you please give your opinion as to which of the following stocks you would reduce. Would you reduce one or two selected stocks, or perhaps reduce across the board? All of the reductions would be in registered accounts. You can assume the stocks are all about the same percentage of our portfolio.

Q: Good morning,
Recently President Biden announced there would be a
$600 million investment in the Florida power grid to provide reliable power during a hurricane. Is this a positive for EMA.
Cheers,

Q: Is there any reason for the sudden drop of Emera stock and is it a good long term hold for a retired divided seeker?
Q: Hello,
Hydro One seems to be going up quite a bit. Do you think the valuation is much higher than fortis and Emera? If so, i was thinking of selling Hydro One and moving the monies to fortis or Emera. Any comments; thanks very much

Q: Hi,
I didn't understand your answer about Brian 's question posted today. (July 4th)
To my limited understanding, your answer should point out to EMA as a better option. Lower pay out ratio. Higher dividend growth. Or am I misinterpreting your answer.
