Q: I’m thinking of expanding my energy holdings. I bought Whitecap a few months ago and have enjoyed a nice bump in value along with a solid dividend. I’m considering TVE, SU and/or ENB for a combo of dividend and SP appreciation. Could you please discuss the relative merits of each in a 1-2 year timeline. I’d definitely hold longer if the case can be made that green energy investment and ESG movements don’t derail fossil fuel companies from meeting existing market demand.

Q: For a longer term (5-10yr) dividend hold we currently own AQN and are wondering if adding or replacing it with another such as EMA, FTS or NPI is prudent given AQN's flaccid performance over the past 18 months.
Thank you for sharing your insight.

Q: Dear 5i,
I hope you're well today.
I'm trying to pick the "better" company in which to invest new money.
May I have your opinion, please?
I like all three, but between BEP, CPX, and AQN what would be your preference?
Thank you.

Q: Good Morning,
Two ?s here: I put in a buy on SU before markets opened with a limit 21 cents above yesterdays close. It didn't fill, and now the stock is up about $2.50.
How would you approach putting an order in prior to market opening on this sort of event?
And do you think there is more room to run on the share price based on the quarter, dividend increase and share by back news?
Thanks,
Tim

Q: Stock screeners. Could you suggest web sites with a great stock screener tool - free or paid?

Failing that could you list Canadian companies that currently pay a dividend above 2.75 % and have no debt?

Q: Can you give me your opinion on todays announcement of an acquisition and a stock offering. They say it will be accretive, yet I can' help but think it will be dilutive.

Also they say there will not be another offering before mid 2022 - Does this mean they will be making another acquisition?

Are they using the offerings in part to cover the dividends?

This is a stock I bought for the dividend, but expected some growth and safety. I actually have a small capital gain, but the stock has done very poorly over the past year, although I know the pandemic has been a severe negative factor.

They say that this acquisition means that 80% of the company will be regulated - why do some analysts talk about this as a renewable energy company?

Should I dump it?

Q: I have held BCE & RCI.b for 15 years as my Telecom Holdings (5% each of my equity portfolio). I just sold my RCI.b shares due to poor performance over the years plus the current squabble just pushed me over the edge.

Do you think Telus would make a suitable replacement for RCI.b in the Telecom space given its diversification in 5G, health, international etc. even though it doesn't own the Toronto Blue Jays or any other sports teams.

Thanks
