Q: HI folks.
Happy Spring.
I believe that I once saw your List of Canadian Companies that pay their dividends in US dollars. Would you please send me the link.
I am slowly going to sell off and then rebuy the stocks that I own in Canadian $ ( over the the US $ side of my accounts with existing US $ cash). Is this the best plan in order to avoid FX charges and receive my dividends in US$ ? At what point is it not worth it??
Much thanks

Q: I am a young retiree with a well diversified portfolio. I could use some stability and dividend in my portfolio which is more focused on growth. Can I have your assessment on Russel metals. It seems that the economy should continue to do well even with some inflation as the markets seem to have digested the increase in rates. The world will always need metals to manufacture things. Why is Russel so cheap? Why is it not in your income portfolio?

Thanks a million LOL LOL

Q: Hi,

I assume you're still positive on ENB for the long-term? I have both ENB and AltaGas, with the latter finally coming back up to my ACB. I was thinking of selling it and consolidating the funds into ENB. Partly to reduce my holdings but also because I have more confidence in ENB.

Would you prefer diversity and keep both positions? Or is my plan ok?

Thanks,
Robert

Q: I've noted lately that Canadian pipeline company's price appreciation is actually doing better than usual. I currently own PPL, ALA, and ENB, all of which are making good gains, (especillay Pembina). I find this unusual for companies that pay such high dividends.. Just wondering if my observation is correct and if so why is this happening? Also, do you think in the present environment the rate of appreciation of their stock prices will continue upwards for the short and long term?

Hello Peter:
We have to choose to add to two among these higher dividend stocks in my Cash account. These will be held for the next 20 years and want the best "sleep-at-Night" investments that hopefully never need to be sold.
I am looking for strong growing dividends plus decent compound 10 year share price growth of at least 6%.
BNS, RY, BCE, T, FTS, PPL, SLF, CNR.
I know CNR dividend is only 1.8% but it may be outweighed by growth?
Any other suggestions are welcome.
Could you please arrange them best first for safety and dividend growth
Thank you............. Paul W. K.

Q: Hi, could I please have your opinion on the long end of the yield curve. The consensus seems to be that economic growth is starting to slow, inflation is increasing but may moderate in the second half but remain sticky and that the Fed may make a policy mistake by over tightening. To date the yield curve has steepened, short and long yields have increased, shorts more than longs. How might you see this playing out going forward. Do you think the long end of the curve presents an opportunity at this point? I am considering long perpetual preferreds which have also corrected but offer more generous tax favoured income (around 5%) than long bonds? Many thanks.
