Q: hi,
I am looking at adding these to my dividend equities. I like growth with the dividend stocks, both in capital appreciation and dividend payout ( to keep up with inflation, over the long term ). how do these 2 stack up? further, is there an open source website to check CDN dividend equites in regards to the dividend growth, payout ratios, etc...
cheers, chris

Q: Hi 5i
I own GXE in a TFSA and in the midst of today's bloodbath the value of my holding is down 45% from when I bought quite some time ago. There's not an overly significant amount of money involved and I can ride it out if that's the thing to do, but I would like to minimize my losses as effectively as possible.
With that in mind, what would you recommend I do - sell, hold or buy some more at the current depressed price, and why?
Thanks 5i, I look forward to your thoughts.
Peter

Q: I need to increase my weight in the consumer cyclical so I am looking at QSR and AW.UN. Would you buy both or only one? If only one is to be bought which one would you prefer?

Thanks

Q: By the end of this year, I will set up a RRIF. I would very much like to have dividends fund the expected withdrawal of 5 to 6%. There are many TSX stocks which will help achieve this goal. For example, ENB, BCE, BNS, CM, PPL, MFC, SLF etc. Currently, my RRSP is 67% CDN$ and 33% US$. I am having great difficulty finding anything in US$ that comes close to the dividend yield offered by the CDB$ stocks that have listed. BTW, my CDN$ would have about 15 positions. Big Question: How to achieve my goal with the US$ component of my RRIF? One obvious option is to move to funds CDN$, but that goes against country diversification which you often note. I am not very keen on US stocks or ETFs that pay a 2.5% dividend. Your thoughts and recommendation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Dan.

Q: Hello 5i team,
I have held the US stock of Brookfield Renewable Corp for a bit over 2 years. For that same time, BEPC has been on a steady but very slow decline (-23%).

Back when it was a REIT (BEP.UN.TO) I did very well.

In your opinion what are the prospects of this slow decline turning around? I wanted to add more because I still believe in the quality of the company (part of my utilities sector). Plus they have steadily increased their dividend ~5% every year since it's inception (July 2020).

Thank You,
Andrew
