Q: Hi 5i team,

PA suggests I up my utilities by 5%. I was thinking of adding two stocks one being AQN at 2.5% to 3%. Can you please suggest a few large and mid cap companies that would complement AQN.

Thank you

Q: I just recently retired and within my portfolio have approx 60% in Bonds (As per above) - while these have been a great hedge against the equity holdings, I am considering either selling some of the bonds listed above - approx 10% and moving these monies into either high yield bonds - ie CHB or ZHY or if not into high yield bonds possibly a high yield dividend fund like XEI or ZWC or ?
While I would like to increase the income on these monies - do you think this is a good time to make this move?

Q: I hold PKI and ENB.
What do you respond to those who are saying to let go all fuel related stocks. I was having a conversation today where the other party was hard set on the world going green and will be needing less and less fuel. I think we are at least one decade or two away. What are your thoughts?
Thanks

I am currently invested in three of these ETF's. Can you recommend other high dividend paying ETF's to complement my current allocation. Thank you!

Q: I have a question about my TFSA - is there decreased value to own US-traded income stocks in a TFSA? If I'm obliged to pay non-resident withholding tax, doesn't that partially defeat the benefit of my TFSA? In particular, I've read with interest the 5i researchers' (the "5iR") position that ENB is generally favoured over PPL presently. Would the 5iR's position change if the holding were in a TFSA? Is the withholding tax a material concern?
Thank you in advance for your advice,
IK.

Q: Why is the market not liking these two companies? Both established large cap companies, limited growth but why so unloved if interest rates will remain low for years to come? I have to admit I’m staying away from these two due to terrible price momentum. Both have lost money if held the past 5 years.
