Q: Hi Folks,

My RRSP portfolio consists of the above stocks all with relatively the same weighing. Can you suggest 5 names or so, (CDN and U.S) that I take a look at that would complement the above? I am looking for a company that would be a good buy today for both income and capital appreciation - total return.
Thanks

Q: I own the above high dividend yield Canadian stocks, just under 4% yield and up. I am looking to add maybe 10 to 20 % to 4 or 5 positions. The yield on these is enough for us now so no hurry to sell anything.
Retired, but still looking at safety of capital. I have left out O&G plays and other potentially riskier plays. (except Enbridge)

Which of these, or other stocks do you believe have the greatest potential for price appreciation over the next couple of years if/when interest rates drop.

I am looking for your top 5, here but feel free to add other picks.

Thank you. Take as many credits as needed.

Q: Dear 5i
When stocks that payout dividends/interest monthly i assume the share price of the stock temporarily goes down after the distribution is payed . If that is correct would it be wise to buy into that stock at that point when the stock is lower after the distribution ?
Also i can't decide whether to top up my enbridge position or start a new position in pembina . Do you have a preference ? Is it a good time to take on an energy position in addition to CNQ which i currently have ?
Thanks again and deduct as necessary .
