Q: I have no utilities in my RRSP portfolio at this time. What are you preferred utilities in order of preference to buy now for total return (dividend and potential growth)? Any preferences among these that I'm thinking about being Fortis (FTS.TO / FTS), Emera (EMA.TO), Brookfield Infrastructure (BIPC.TO), Brookfield Renewable (BEPC.TO)?

Q: Hi Folks,
I have the above Utility companies in various accounts. I am looking to add 1 more to my TFSA ( currently have EMA ) and 1 more to my wife's TFSA ( currently has BEPC ) - can you suggest which one you would recommend that I add to each TFSA, either from the above OR something new.
Thanks

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: Merry Christmas everyone and thank you for a wonderful service! I'm looking to purchase six different companies that have preferred shares and would like you to help me pick them. Security of dividend and safety of the companies (staying power) is the top priority here. Therefore if two preferred picks are in the same sector I don't mind as I'm not sure how much diversity matters here.
I currently own TRI and CSU preferred shares and would also like your opinion on them, thanks.

Q: Hi, Capital Power announced strong results, but the stock keeps declining, despite its cheaper valuation compared to other utilities. Any comments ? Thanks
Q: Hi, any idea why EMA has so dramatically underperformed it’s peer utilities in the past 5 days? Thanks.
Q: I have been a long time holder of EMA, with a YoC of over 10%. I am mainly concerned with the safety of the dividend and some dividend growth. Given the recent news, is there reason to be concerned about the dividend and overall outlook for this company?

Q: In this time of rising interest rates , do you think one should hold on to EMA and FTS for the longer term or should I sell if you think they may tank a lot more?

Q: Hi, This week's sharp decline in Pipeline ( ENB/TRP and Others) and Utility (FTS etc ) stocks - Do you think, it is a result of market's renewed fear of continued rate hikes into 2022/2023, as suggested by FED Chair on Friday and re-iterated by other FED Presidents over course of this week including Cleveland FED President, Mester, Today. Pipelines and Utilies sector has performed well this year, but may be, due to its higher yield, is causing some worry to investors. Your comments, co relation of high rates and other factors, impacting these sectors will be much appreciated. Would it be prudent to underweight the sectors, in near term. Thank You
Q: Hi Peter and Staff
In an answer to Ken on August 4th you stated that neither of these companies generate free cash flow - is that correct ?
Thanks for all you do

Q: Hi team,
I own Fortis and Emera for dividends and safety. Given the higher dividend and recent better performance of Capital Power, would it be reasonable to replace either FTS or EMA with CPX?
