Q: How do you see this company managing in an inflationary environment? Do you see this as a good entry point? Are there other names in this sector you would prefer right now? Interested in dividends. Thank you!

Q: Hello 5i:
I am thinking of replacing AQN in my TFSA as I feel the company has become stagnate lately and I have a 50% profit from owning it since 2014. I have been thinking AQN and buying either PPL or TRP.
Can you rate which pipeline you like best and why? Or, would you stay with AQN?

Q: Can you please clarify for me the following:

In terms of dividends, there is an "ex-dividend date", and a "pay date".
If one owns shares as of the ex dividend date and sells before the pay date, does one collect the dividend anyway?

Appreciate your help.

Q: Good Morning
This morning Peter McKeough is recommending that T is a buy. He is forecasting a 7.7 Price /Earnings ratio for the 2021 earnings.
Is this the right time to average down on this stock?
I will appreciate your insight as always.
Thanks

Q: Hello Peter,

The ETF's above are in the income portfolio. All have different yields that are paid out monthly. My question is, do any of these "dividends" increase over time? Not the yield but the actual payout per share?

Thanks,

Kelly

Q: With all the speculation about major dividend increases once restrictions are lifted, would investment in banks be a good short term strategy (hoping for a boost upon announcements), or has the expectation already been cooked into current prices? Any guesses as to who will announce the largest increase?

Q: Hello Folks:
Currently we hold energy sector stocks:
PXT, WCP, ARX, SES, CVX.
All these are having a good run except ARX.
Would you advise trading ARX for another energy stock such as TOU etc. Do you think I should hang on to ARX or make a trade for something else?
Thanks again for everything

Q: I was surprised by your response to Chris' question of Oct. 19. He asked you to rate 5 renewable energy stocks from least to highest risk and AQN was deemed most at risk.
(Your assessment from least to most at risk: NPI, BEPC, CPX, RNW, and AQN.) What is the source of the risk to AQN...and how likely do you believe this risk is likely to occur? Thank you.
