Q: On April 27/20 you gave some advice and suggested buying BIP.UN. I understood that BIP.UN turned into BIPC so I am confused. Does BIP.UN still exist and if it does which do you prefer?

Q: I currently have full positions in BEP.UN, AQN and NPI in a non-reg account. I'm thinking of selling one to buy either BCE or BIPC.
This is a portfolio move. I don't currently own BCE or T so this might be a good time to add. I actually prefer BIPC for the more global exposure. I'm retired and looking for reliable dividends with a side of growth. I think owning all three utilities may be too much (I also own ALA in my RRSP) but selling any of the three would result in a taxable event.
forgot to mention that selling any of AQN, NPI or BEP.UN would result in a taxable gain. I also intended to ask which of the three would you sell?
Do think this would be a worthwhile move? If so, which would to buy, BCE or BIPC?
Thanks as always.

Q: Hello 5i,
Thank you for providing a clear and modulated message through the past 2 months.
For a 5-10 year hold could you rank the top 10 highest (TSX) yielding stocks with the safest dividends. ( strongest balance sheet, lowest payout ratio, historical dividend growth, etc).
Could you also rank them separately in terms of bounceback / growth potential over the next 2 to 3 years?
There may be redundancy in this question vs others asked and the 5i portfolios - so please take as many credits as necessary.
Thank you

Q: I have no positions in renewable energy, my watchlist includes the 3 companies in question. Could you rate these 3, add a 4th if you you know of a stronger candidate in terms of balance sheet strength and growth prospects. I’m a long term, buy and hold investor.
Q: I'm thinking of selling my ALA for a tax loss and moving on + set aside some cash, but I'm trying to determine the right opportunity (it was ex-dividend today, so that's one thing!).
What sort of potential impact with the pandemic have on ALA that could make waiting dangerous? They, of course, report on April 30.
Thanks.

- BMO Covered Call Canadian Banks ETF (ZWB)
- BMO Covered Call Utilities ETF (ZWU)
- BMO US High Dividend Covered Call ETF (ZWH)
- iShares S&P/TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats Index ETF (CDZ)
Q: What are your thoughts on these two etfs for retirement income going forward ?
- BMO Canadian Dividend ETF (ZDV)
- iShares S&P/TSX Composite High Dividend Index ETF (XEI)
- iShares S&P/TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats Index ETF (CDZ)
Q: Can you please recommend what you believe is currently the best Canadian dividend ETF for monthly income and relative stability in this unstable market. You have recommended XEI in the past, but it has about about 11% more Energy stocks compared to ZDV, although XEI does have 5% less financials. I am looking for a long term hold for income in retirement. Thanks, Grant

Q: Hi Guys,
Appreciate your daily answers to all the questions so thanks for those.
Could I get your opinion on selling IPL to crystallize a loss and buying PPL? Then consider buying some IPL after 30 (or is it 31) days.
Take whatever credits you need.
Thanks

- Royal Bank of Canada (RY)
- Toronto-Dominion Bank (The) (TD)
- Bank of Nova Scotia (The) (BNS)
- National Bank of Canada (NA)
Q: I have roughly equal weights in NA, RY and BNS and a half position of TD in a TFSA. Even at the worst point of the decline (so far), I have stayed above water on on all but BNS.
As a retiree who loves his solid dividends, the banks are attractive to me and my total holdings are likely higher than you would recommend. I am wondering if I should use the correction to move out of NA and redistribute the funds into RY and BNS. (No room to add money to the TFSA.)
Your thoughts?

Q: I hold a small position in EIF (1%) and debating whether to add or move on here. I like the divvy, but is it sustainable (payout ratio?). 50% off recent highs made in Feb, is it likely to re-test lows of late March ($14) in a second wave of market downdraft ? What are it’s prospects in a post-Corona world, does its business lend itself to quick recovery?
Q: Alaris...big drop today. I don't see anything in the news. Checked the company website...nothing. Was there a downgrade or did the June quarterly dividend get cut (which I've been waiting for). Depending on the news, I may buy a bit more on the downside.
Does your newsfeed show anything?
Thanks...Steve

Q: B of A Securities downgraded AQN to a Underperform with a $13 price target. Have you seen their reasoning on this and do you feel they have some merit in their analysis?
Do you still consider it one of the better utilities in Canada?

Q: B of A just downgraded AQN to under perform. I am assuming that is because they feel it is overvalued and not because of the upcoming quarterly numbers. Consensus is still a buy. Your thoughts?
