Q: Hi Team
IGM is more of a financial company and GWO is really an insurance company, yet both are really owned by power PWF OR POW.
I have a long term buy and hold blue chip dividend investor philosophy.
Safety-wise which one would hold up better in rising interest rate environment
What else should I consider before buying...
Is one of them a better value buy right now ?
thanks
Ernie

Q: Hi,
It's been awhile since there has been a question on NML, I know it has likely been forgotten. I find it disturbing that Tata Steel can continue making cash calls to NML which NML can't answer which dilutes their interest in the DSO. How is it possible that Tata can alter the scope of the DSO which increases Capex significantly and NML is legally bound to this? These changes were not included in the original agreement and has greatly altered the cost and the time line of the project. I have requested the original documents but they will not release them to shareholders which I also find incredible. Any thoughts? What is the future for NML? Thank-you.

Q: Hi, do you think the stock represent good value here, with the recent pullback in the stock.
Q: Hello all at 5i and thank you so much for this forum.
I am grappling a bit with the concept of reaching for yield. What is a healthy stretch vs an unhealthy or perhaps irresponsible overextension?
I am retired, no pension and rely on my investments for my income. I am very comfortable with 4 to 4.5% from dividends, distributions etc. My portfolios are made up of approx. 15% fixed income (etf's) and 85% equities. I am comfortable for the most part with this division as well as overall diversification.
Some of my portfolio anchors, gwo, slf, kbl, sj, stn, fts, sap, dh, t, td, bns etc have dividends below this level. Other like esl, dsg, aya dhx.d, have tiny or no yield but are intended for growth to purchase future income.
I also hold companies like vnr, win, che.un, eif, mkp, rus, wcp with a higher yield to bring the portfolio yield up toward my target range.
Today you replied regarding d.un 8.9% and cuf.un 8.2% yield - “We would consider both buyable within the context of the REIT sector. Their valuations largely reflect rate concerns already. Distributions are quite secure. We think the sector will relax a bit once rates do move up: we do not expect a big increase in rates, and the market is good at anticipating. Like last year, we think investors will eventually reconsider the sector's merits.”
My question is how do you determine a healthy stretch vs over extension for yield? What do you think of my plan and could you provide a few names that I can consider to bring portfolio income up to my target 4 to 4.5% range. I apologize for so many words
Thank you very much,
Brian

Q: CNR appears to be trading at a discount price. Do you agree? What would you think of me adding this stock to my portfolio that more or less replicates your balanced equity portfolio? If I were to replace one of your suggested stocks for CNR which one would you recommend I change? Also can you comment on holding railway stocks in general now and if Canadian Pacific would be a better pick than CNR. Thanks for all you do. You are awesome!

Q: Hi 5i,
I have received this "Daily Bull & Bear Report June 15, 2015" from TD Direct Trading.
"Cipher Pharmaceuticals Inc CPH (TSX)
Head and Shoulders Top -
Trading closed at $10.92 to confirm a Long-Term Bearish Head and Shoulders Top pattern
Tells Me: The price seems to have reached the end of a period of "distribution" at the top of a major uptrend; the break down through support signals a reversal... more details
Bearish Event - 83% move possible"
Their target price range is "$1.00 - $2.75"
Is this bleak forecast realistic?, should we have "fire sale"
Thanks,
Morris
