Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,
Further to Andrew's question about the BIP.UN creation of the BIPC entity, here are a couple of exerpts from BIP's press release. They do make mention of this also being something of a "special dividend", for what it is worth.
"the transaction will be analogous to a unit split as it will not result in any underlying change to aggregate cash flows or net asset value except for the adjustment for the number of units/shares outstanding."
And,
"Currently, unitholders are expected to receive 0.11 BIPC shares for each unit held of Brookfield Infrastructure (i.e., one BIPC class A share for every nine Brookfield Infrastructure units held) in the form of a special distribution."
Not sure if this helps clarify or just further muddies the waters, but thought I would pass this along.
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Most of my investments (90% of my portfolio) are in Balanced Income mutual funds. I made my first investments in the market (10% of my portfolio) about 1 year ago and have made reasonable returns on these investments. I have approximately $200k in cash to invest in the market. I have a couple of questions:
1. Should I invest all the cash in the market or should I keep some cash to invest if there is a downturn in the market? If I should keep some cash, what percentage should be kept in cash?
2. Should I do a lump sum purchase of stocks or should I dollar-cost average the purchase of stocks? If I should dollar-cost average, over what period of time should I purchase stocks?
Thank you very much.

Q: Thoughts on this company please. Apparently, they use PyroGenesis' technology to produce silicon. CEO claims that this quarter they will be producing silicon wafers for the battery industry. Apparently switching from graphite to silicon in batteries is the 'Holy Grail' as it increases capacity by 10x.
Thanks.
