Q: it is noticed that there several (8) analysts rating ENB a hold , also 8 analysts rate it a buy, while the average price target has already been reached, it seems that the former analysts believe some head winds are coming soon, which will force the price to drop. is it the new Trump era affecting ENB ?

Q: As a sector goes, I am so confused by the Canadian "utilities" over the last 5 years.
Why is it so heterogenous in performance, FTS, CU, EMA, ENB,H, TRP ? Why did ENB AND TRP seem to rebound in 2024?

Q: Hello, I own above for my RSP... Obviously, I am disappointed with Telus and BCE and I am down some 25%.. I can understand BCE's poor management, but how about Telus? also in the dumpsters.
If I sell Telus and BCE, do you suggest that I add to one of the above as I want to keep my holdings to 10-12 stocks . Any suggestions?
Thanks
Carlo

Q: Hello Team,

I currently do not have any pure dividend stocks and I'm looking at purchasing one to start. I did a bit of research and came up with the above list, are you able to rank them in order plus add your 2 favorites into the list (if they are not already included). Looking at a minimum of a 6% yield with the possibility of say a 30% return over the next 3-5 years. (setting my goals high). Thanks!

Q: Thanks for your reply on the effects of Trump tariffs on various stocks I own . I will be doing a little re-balancing based on your answers . However you didn't opine on two on the list . ENB which I would suspect may be affected by a tariff on oil and AND which has both Canadian and American operations though I'm not sure of how much of each they have. Thanks again for your terrific service ......

Q: We are at equal weight, full positions [2 O&G stocks, 2 midstream]. Our goals are dividend growth, some capital appreciation. My question is whether we should overweight midstream over O&G stocks given 1. macro/ political [Trump tariff threat and preference for lower O&G prices], and 2. data centre demand.

Given the intention to increase a position of any of these currently held for income (and growth as all being held long term), in what order would you suggest could be most beneficial considering all are currently underweight.
Thanks

Q: Hello
My GIC has just matured in my RRSP. The rates are low now and was thinking of putting the money in either of the above two ETFs which have a higher yield.
MNY has a higher interest but higher MER but better return overall however seems riskier then CASH. What would your suggestion be, would you have another favorite or would you invest in some other "safe" income instrument in the RRSP, ie ENB?

Thanks
Jeff

Q: Hi 5i.

Which Canadian companies would meet the criteria to be considered dividend aristocrats, if they were listed in the US? I know one of the criteria is that the company must be a member of the S&P 500 Index, so obviously an equivalent index membership will have to be used; perhaps the S&P/TSX? Or, would you apply a minimum market cap threshold? It would be interesting to know what Canadian companies would meet the test. Thanks.
