Q: Hi 5i,
I've owned DHT.UN in the past and did quite well - all before that little management fiasco. I sense the company may have completed a turnaround and be coming out of the penalty box now. I'm considering (re)adding it to my TFSA.
To help with the decision I'd appreciate your analysis of the quarter and year end results that were just released, along with any other comment you might have.
Thanks 5i,
Peter

Q: I've doubled on FTS in a non registered account and am thinking to trim as the growth forecast looks pretty flat. I'd like to add to the names noted as I see more growth and better yields. What do you think of such a move for a long term investment, trim or just sell it all?
In what order would you rank these for for growth, income and security?

Thanks

Q: Hi,

Thanks for all your great advice. I particularly enjoyed your recent piece called: "5 inane U.S. policy moves that are spooking investors."

My question is:

If Premier Ford follows through on his 25% tariff on energy exports from Ontario (especially electricity), or even halts those exports, how will that likely impact Hydro One’s stock? Today (March 4) it is up almost 2%.

Thanks again, Michael
