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.

Q: Hi 5iResearch Team,
I have held a position on ENB for 4 plus years now and it has been a disaster these past couple of years. I am thinking of swapping ENB for AQN and would like to have your comments on this intended move. Much appreciated.

Q: Though I don't think interest rates can increase very much, can you share which 3 or 4 utilities in Canada have the least amount (and most amount) of debt?
Thanks

Q: Hi Team, I realize that dividends are an important part of any portfolio and I know that 5I regards "Drips" very highly and I agree. Since I have no recollection of the investment world with high interest rate, how is "Dripping" affected in a rising rate market in the long run? Especially the utilities and the Bond Proxies.In the past how have names like TRP, FTS, EME performed. The higher yielding names in my portfolio in the utilities space are T and AQN. Should I keep dripping them? I am not worried about the other sectors stocks with dividends just the utilities.Thank-you in advance! Sam

Q: Hello Peter and team, Considering the tax changes going on in the US, in general terms, what kind of impact would you anticipate for above Utility sector stocks

Q: I own about 16% utilities - all have been falling quite a bit recently. Based on my limited knowledge of technicals, it seems that they are all at their support levels (except TRP which appears to be below that level). Is it time to buy into these utility stocks based on technicals, or does it seem that they are going to fall some more based on interest rate hike fears, so it would be best to lighten up on utilities? or just do nothing?

Q: Hello,
I hold BIP.UN and AQN in my RSP and am considering lightening up in the utility space.
I hold them in equal amounts, if I am considering selling one position what would you recommend ? I consider them to be medium term (3-5 year) positions.
Thanks as always .. appreciate the advice.
