Q: Overweight in utilities/pipelines. Took profits on CPX & AQN to reduce position and to buy in the consumer non-cyclial space. I currently hold WMT & VGG. I would like to add pure non-cyclical. What’s your opinion on PKI & PLC? Or would you suggest something else.

My plan reduce positio in group one esp. Enb and use proceeds to buy cpd.a my concern with cpd.a is fees totaling 2%. Also when purchasing this security there appears to be a trailer fee attached as indicted when I attempted to make a trade. Your opinion please.

Q: CPX took a hit following their last quarter, but they did raise their dividend and still have around a 50% payout (correct?). With the lower price, I am considering buying some, mainly for the dividend as opposed to capital gains (I'm retired and always looking for income). Some questions:
- has their coal-plant issue been satisfactorily resolved
- is their debt level in line with other power producers
- what do you think of their movement towards renewables
- do you consider the dividend sustainable (yeah, I know . . . )
- how successful have they been in meeting estimates
- would you buy today for income (I already hold AQN and NPI)

Thank-you
