Investment Q&A

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

Q: In a recent question on DHT.UN you mentioned they expected to pay out 20-30% of earnings .... Being a royalty company I suspect they may have a dividend percentage range or goal in mind ..... With these type of companies I am not really interested unless that yield is on the north side of 5% ..... With the current company mix do you have an estimate of what you think that yield percentage might be ?

Q: 11:05 AM 5/20/2021

On March 18, 2021 "Using safety and valuation as the primary metrics", you ranked these 4 utilities : We would rank: FTS, NPI, AQN, EMA.

You consistently rank EMA at the bottom of the list yet since 2008 the graphs of FTS and EMA are almost exactly the same, both raise their dividends annually and EMA has a higher dividend [4.5% as opposed to 3.7%].

You must see something I am missing. What is the problem with EMA making it so much less desirable than FTS. Please be specific if you can, as this problem has bothered me for a long time. I own 4%EMA and 5%FTS positions in the two and need to add a bit to one. I plan to own these "forever" strictly for income and enough growth to offset inflation.
Thanh you.......... Paul K.

Q: Hello, and thank you, to all of the 5i Team for the insightful investment advice!
I will be selling some Pembina Pipeline shares within a year’s time frame. Do you see any short term upside for the PPL share price, or will they most likely encounter some resistance at the $40 level, and stay range bound without some major mover? Thanks in advance!

Q: Moving from growth to income. Have a 76% realized gain and 76% unrealized gain on CAE.
What do you think of selling CAE ? Most dividend paying stocks I’ve looked at seem rather expensive. I already have full positions in AQN, BNS,BAM, CAR.UN, SUN, VGG, VDY, half position inT. Any dividend paying stocks that you would consider reasonable priced or discounted?
