Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Recently retired and looking for growth and income and looking for suggestions with FTS. Have owned for 5 years and currently up 10.48 % over that time. One of my weakest performers in my rrsp. What would you do with this? Sell outright and replace with? I’m considering H as I own both and H has outperformed with 69.86% over the same time period. Which would you prefer for the next 5 years? H? FTS? ( is there hope for FTS) or something else and which would be buyable today?
Thanks for all your guidance

Q: 23% of my portfolio is invested in utilities (carefully selected stocks+ETFs + covered call ETfs (and some leveraged ETFs) for the following reasons: 1) dividends as revenue + various tax advantages 2) its seems to me that utilities are quite "essentials" in a society during crisis, even if interests are high 3) covered calls for revenue + to compensate for the actual high volatility + some protection for potentially down markets. Your opinion on this approach ,as any suggestion , shall be greatly appreciated ! regards Jean-Yves

Pls. include any utility that I have missed that would crack the top 3.

Q: These 4 'blue chip' stocks (BCE, TRP, ENB, BNS) pay healthy dividends, but basically are trading where they were 10 years ago. If you were to look out 5 years, how would you rank them best to worst, in terms of how much their share price will increase from today....Thanks...Glenn

Q: Hey Peter & Team,

Apologies if I missed the answer when I searched, but I found it difficult to find my answer when I looked for a U$ dollar equivalent to "CASH." What would you suggest 3 - 6 months hold??? OR is there a U$ ETF representing GICs?

Thanks for all you do
