Q: I have some money in my RRSP and would like to buy some US stocks. Could you recommend your top picks you think are priced to buy now, which gives 3% or more dividend. Also any you would wait on, and what price point you would enter. Thanks so much!

Q: me, puzzled that Bell Canada and Hydro One continue to see stock price increases......like I understand there is a dividend tax credit for these two, if the stock is held in a non-registered account, and to a large degree, be able to pass on higher expenses to customers, and also that some folks want "safety".......but isn't this the catch - when interest rates return to a more normalize level, aka higher, the value of these two stocks should decline, right?!.......me, inclined to trim, aka take the gain, or sell outright!........what is your take on this???

Q: Given the recent decline in these stocks, would you add more money into them? Could you rate them in terms of which ones you would add to (first to last) and their valuations (best valuation to worst valuation)?
thanks

Q: I think I misunderstood your previous answers on ZPR to mean it was the better preferred ETF to be in considering it holds rate resets, which should go up as interest rates rise. However, your last answer indicated it holds significant long exposure preferreds, which would cause it to fall more heavily under the current environment?

To be clear, what is your best idea for a preferred ETF right now?

Q: I just heard about AQNU. I gather that the yield is 7.87% until June 15, 2024 when a contract to purchase AQN stock is exercised according to a preset formula. What exactly is AQNU - a hybrid? Can this type of instrument be held in an RRSP?

If I'd like to end up with some AQN eventually, why wouldn't I buy AQNU now, get the 7.87% yield, and then on June 15, 2024 receive AQN stock?
Thank you for all your insightful answers over the years - I've learned so much!
