Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: For an income, would you recommend this stock. Is there another that you feel would be better for both income and a little upside.

Thanks

Q: Would you initiate an investment of BIR at the current share price? Is its dividend safe? How would you rank BIR against two other small high yield O&G companies - PHX and CJ in terms of likely combined return over the next two years? Thanks.

Q: These stocks of the same company appear to be trading at around a difference of US$10. The 5i blog is very helpful in explaining the difference in the two classes of shares and notes that the only real difference between them is that the BIPC class of share has a broader range of appeal for certain buyers and therefore greater demand than the BIP class.

So my question. Is the current difference in pricing related solely to a greater demand for the BIPC shares? Maybe I have missed something?

Q: Does the average investor need exposure to the renewable sector right now? Trying to pick a winner amongst what seems to be a sector facing a number of headwinds (pun intended) seems like a bit of a "mugs game" at present. Can you come up with a compelling reason to not just sit that area out for awhile in favour of opportunities elsewhere?

Q: I am considering adding CAT to the industrial sector of my TFSA to complement WSP. I would like a relatively safe 10% annual return from CAT. I note that WSP ate CAT's lunch with 3&5 year returns. Cat is doing better over 3,6 and 12 months. The impetus for the CAT addition is the infrastructure bill $$$$ in the US. Is this a good plan for a 3-5 year hold? Thank you

Q: Hi Guys
Can you list a few U.S. stocks with attractive Free cash flow Yields ( using EV instead of MCAP) preferably with stable cash flows, that trade at attractive Forward P/E ratios.
Looking also for a decent dividend. I was pondering IBM, their interest coverage looks decent, but their Total Debt/EBITDA looks a bit high at 4.0x
Thanks Gord

Q: Robert Gill of Goodreid Investment Counsel had a bullish opinion on TC Energy in today's Globe. Recent opinions on TRP from 5i are less bullish. Do Gill's opinion or numbers do anything to change your opinion? ENB is my long term hold in the sector,  TRP would be a 'clip the coupon  while awaiting some reversion to mean on the share price' type holding.  
A related question: With these high debt utility type stocks, how great are the risks we go into multi year period of higher interest rates? 
Thank You.

Q: I have held ALA for many years, I have some cash to deploy in the account holding ALA. All my other holdings in that account have bounced to start 2023 with ALA the glaring exception who lost steam and gave back its gains. Good time to buy the dip on ALA and worst case I get the 3.7% div for the rest of 2023? You don't seem to be huge fans based on replies to other ALA questions. I don't see a huge downside if markets continue to be shaky and with the interest rate hike cycle hopefully nearing an end.
