Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I like the theme of seniors' care for the long term. I have a small position (<3%) of CSH.UN in my TFSA and it has done well over the last couple of years. Would you add to this or sell it and replace it with a different name in the same space. (I also have a bit of KMP and some D.Un in non-registered accounts, in case other REIT holdings might influence your comments.)

Thanks for your help - I've been with you since almost the beginning and I love your service!

Q: 10:16 AM 12/10/2014
Hello Peter
I am looking for safety of dividends and dividend growth, with some share price growth too, and can add about 1% to an existing position.
I am considering adding to one of :

Chartwell CSH.UN - I have a 0.1% starter position..... yield 4.6%.
Emera EMA - I have a 2.0% position........ yield 4.04%.
Enbridge ENB - I have a 2.4% position............yield about 3.07 after latest increase.
Enbridge Income Fund ENF - I have a 5% position............... yield 4.48%.

Which has the least liklihood of a dividend cut, and which would you pick, and why would you choose the one you do.
Thank You ....... Paul K

Q: I'd like your opinion on Chartwell REIT (CSH.UN). Both it and Lesureworld (LW) have performed extremely well in the last 12 months, especially if you consider the dividends/distributions they provide and how safe/stable they should be.
I currently only own CSH.UN, and it represents about 10% of my overall portfolio. Would you maintain an overweight position or sell half and buy LW? Do you think the sector is overbought? I'm almost 35, and am ok with taking on some risk.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i team,

I'm looking for an industrial stock to add to my portfolio. I currently own CCL.B and SJ, but I'd like to add a third stock in this sector? Do you have recommendations?

I also wanted your opinion on Chartwell Retirement REIT. I currently own 3 REITS (Riocan, H&R and Chartwell), but I was thinking of selling Chartwell and buying Boardwalk for a bit more growth.

Thanks very much,
Jason

Q: Hi,
I'm following your new Income portfolio and I would like to add a company in the Health sector, Consumer discretionary and Consumer staples (other than Loblaws.) Do you have any recommendations in those sectors? Thank you.
p.s. It was tough to find a web site that broke down the TSX into 10 sectors and tougher to find a site with the constituents of each individual sector.
Really enjoy reading your articles and listening to the webinars.

Q: Happy New year to all. First, I must tell you this the best investment concept I have ever seen. Your integrity and focus on the individual investor is so far advanced the rest are going backward. There is no agenda and we, the investors, just sit back and get, or see through other investor questions and your answers, the most honest advice possible. The price of admission was paid on my first transaction. Thank you so much for doing what you do.
My question; I bought Chartwell at +7 something get a great dividend return, have a nice profit but like all REIT'S do you think there is a growth story here or are we now spinning the wheels.
Again, thanks for all you do. Chartwell is 6.2% of my Portfolio.

Q: Hi Peter, your thoughts on a trade would be appreciated. One of my REIT stocks Cominar Real Estate Investment Trust has broken from the pack on the down side. I’m looking to possibly sell this closed end fund and buy something like Chartwell Retirement Residences. I like to hold my positions long term and focus on dividends but I will tweak my portfolio once in a while, so far it’s worked for the better.
Thanks,
Div. Investor
