Q: Algonquin Power which I hold looks like on the chart like a set of stairs going to nowhere. Also, Air Canada is not much better. Do you see any hope for these 2 companies in the next 6 months? When I tried to type in the stock symbol it would not allow me to put it in.

Q: With your answer to a Q on ENB as time being on the buyers side I put a low ball bid in for some shares. Could you give me a list of 'safe' stocks (i.e. like ENB and not KWH.UN for example) with great yields that one could put stink bids on? I will assume in your answer that putting ENB over ENF(e.g.) indicates preference of the safer investment vehicle.

Q: Hello 5i,
In the recent sell off I sold enbridge for a tax loss and bought Algonquin as a replacement, thinking to sell it and buy enbridge again after thirty days. But, I have been thinking about keeping Algonquin in place of Endbridge. This because of possibly growing problems with pipelines and also the postive outlook for cleaner energy with Algonquin. I have been wondering, though, whether the absence of pipelines would be a big negative point for my utilities sector. So, I guess the question is whether clean energy utilities like Algonquin and Bep can replace the pipelines without too much loss in the utilities sector of one's portfolio?

Q: Hi Team, A friend told me that Algonquin Power is taking on debt to pay its dividend. I’ve looked at some cash flow metrics and debt metrics and I can’t see how that determination was made. Have you any thoughts on how to assess the validity of this claim? Thank you. Michael

Q: Hi Team,
Many people look at utilities for the income potential. I was wondering if you could please rank these four utilities for their total return potential for a five-year plus hold. Any particular risks with any of them that I should be aware of? Please deduct credits as needed.
Many thanks, Michael

Q: Where would i put my money to get a more stable return
Q: Hello,
I have no Utilities in my registered portfolio and I am going to add one at a full position. I am likely holding it for 5 years, and my overall investment window or horizon is long-term at 20+ years. The dividend yield on all three of these stocks is over 4% which I like. None are currently 'oversold' on the RSI chart.
Three questions:
Is AQN still a reasonable buy even with a P/E of 26x?
Do you expect H to stay range-bound with a price in the low $20's because of their future planned share issues?
If you could recommend only one, for a younger person, which one do you like? (feel free to deduct 3 credits). Thx, Rob

Q: Are there any utility companies with low debt levels? Canadian or American.
My thoughts are that with increased adoption of electric vehicles, electricity demand will continue to grow in a substantial way. I would like to invest in an electric utility for the long term based on this expected trend. However with the potential for rising rates, a company with large debt loads may not see as much benefit from increased demand as a company with lower leverage.
Your thoughts please.

Q: Hello 5i Team.
I own these stocks for the dividend, in sectors that are currently getting hit due to rising interest rates (I assume). From your point of view, is it best, if one needs the income, to not be concerned with losing equity value and just continue collecting the dividend and hope that over time, these stocks will recover? Or is it best to sell and research other options. (I am 66 years young). Please also rate these stocks from best to least in terms of dividend safety and growth potential. Thank you for your wise advice.
