Investment Q&A

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

Q: I apologize if you have already answered this, but I can't find it. Given that the TSX will be moving Chartwell to the Healthcare sector, do you think that is an accurate allocation when trying to build a diversified portfolio? I'm inclined to leave it in Financials as a REIT. Would you agree, or should it comprise part of my Healthcare component?

Thank you.

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: Chartwell REIT (CSH.UN) hit a new high today, presumably from news that Ventas is acquiring some retirement communities from Holiday Retirement. Is Chartwell expensive now or do you think it still has room to go? Do you think the REIT may be a future takeover target? Thank you for a great service!

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.
