Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, we want to buy back Capital Power shares, as we sold a partial position to book capital loss, Now, we are past the 30 days period. The stock has been strong since its Investor Day presentation, a few days ago. What would be a decent entry point over next 2 weeks, in your opinion ? Thank You

Q: hi again
I see a typo in my recent (yesterday) question on RCI.A
"finer line bailout" should read, "fiber line buildout". the thesis is that T and BCE have already built out most of their fiber lines and are thus a step or 2 ahead of RCI.A financially...
could you comment on this specifically too. thanks and sorry for the "auto-typo" via apple OS!

Q: Hi Guys
Can you explain why LTM Free cash flow shows Cash from Operations @ 551 million less Capital Expenditures 335.2 million equaling free cash flow of positive 216 million.
Why wouldn't it be : Cash from Op 551 million Less Cash from Investing -296.9 million, less cash from financing - 270.8 million for a negative free cash flow of about -15.8 million ?
Thanks Gord

Q: Hi 5i,

What’s your perspective on the Energy sector going into 2023? I’ve had big wins on all 3x stocks, and am trying to decide whether to trim positions in the face of a potential global recession.

Thank you!

Q: hi,
I am down 45% on this, large $$ loss. I think I should sell and get the tax loss. can I get a few suggestions for dividend stock with growth, paying over 4.5%, and good survival chances if markets go south again ( or economy ). Canadian names only please. and does not need to be sector specific. cheers

Q: hi,
I currently own all 3, all with reasonable gains. I read recently that T and BCE have done most of their finer line bailouts, Rogers not so much. this tilts the tables significantly I assume towards T and BCE. I plan to sell Rogers, and add the proceeds to T and BCE. does this sound OK? and do you feel it is ok to have a 5% position in each of T and BCE now? cheers

Q: It would seem that everyone is recommending BEP and yet it is on a continuous downtrend and if I compare it to other renewable such as NEE its not looking to good. Your thoughts on this company and why we should invest in it. Thanks

Q: Can you give any reason for the recent rather sharp decline in their stock prices relative to the gains in the TSX? Thank you for your attention.

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor. I own AQN and TRP for the very long term. I started buying AQN at $5.60 way back and I have trimmed for asset allocation targets on the way up.

I have cash available to add to both of these positions. When I look at the technicals, it looks to my amateur eyes that $49 and $56 respectively look to be good re-entry positions. Would you agree that adding is appropriate and at what levels would you add? Thanks...Steve

Q: Hello Peter
I am looking at adding two stocks to my TFSA. Both stocks to be income producing stock with an upside for growth.
Are there any risks with the dividend in the 6 stocks listed
How would you rank the 6 stocks listed to fulfill my goals

Thank you
Howard

Q: Good morning. I watched your interview with Kornel Szejber from Build Wealth Canada. On it you discussed immunization which was most helpful. You also mentioned that you thought of CNR and CP as set it and forget it stocks. With that train of thought in mind which other canadian dividend stocks would you put in this same category? If I was to purchase 10 dividend stocks to take advantage of the dividend tax credit in my non registered acct which would be my main source of income which stocks should I consider.
Thanks
Victoria

Q: Hi 5i, other than a widely telegraphed interest rate rises from the Fed, what else is driving this company to new lows? All the talking heads don't like it for reasons like; it's still expensive; it makes investments below cost of capital. Any insight to this downtrend would be greatly appreciated. Thx.

Q: Peter; Any news to account for high volume today ( Nov.30)? Thanks
Rod

Q: Hello, Im assuming you will get a few questions on TC Energy. What is your opinion on this company with its 6% loss today and huge increase in spending for its pipeline project? Is it time to get out? Would Enbridge be better now?

Q: Do you see any other utility stocks at risk of the same fate as AQN?

Thanks.

Q: Hi, What is your assessment of Suncor after today's highly anticipated investor's day and stock selling off apparently triggered by company's decision to retain Petro Canada gas station, which has 18% market share of Canadian fuel distribution business. One of the reasons, company assigned was the safety net/cushion this business provides during the times of company facing headwinds of lower demand for oil. Looks like, market was expecting a decision otherwise. which would have helped rerating of shares and narrow the discount, stock trades at, relative to its peers. How would company fund its purchase of Fort Hill Oil sands, from Tech Resources, due to close in 2023 ? How does this all play with activist investor and overall impact on stock price ? Thank You

Q: Could you elaborate on your response to Tim saying you are comfortable in replacing AQN with either CPX or FTS in terms of the total dividend income under each option. Do you think that AQN's dividend is at such risk that it is the best option today to move out of AQN and take a lower dollar amount of dividends.
Thank you.

Q: Hello, I'm recently retired. I am seeking income generating vehicles for my various, registered plans (RRSP, LIRA, TFSA) to invest in. I'm considering an investment in ZWU. I'm wondering if there might be a similar, utilities based, covered call, ETF available for the American market?

Lastly, if any of these ETFs might also be available without the covered call overlay and if you believe that those versions of the ETFs might provide better, mid-term probability of a greater Total Return; I'd be interested in your opinion, as well.

Thank you!
