Investment Q&A

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

Q: Retired and income seeking investor. These three stocks seem to have been underperforming. Would you buy them for relatively low volatility and reasonably good yields? How safe are their dividends?

Q: I'm looking to start a new position in one of the above. They are both trading very close to each other in valuation. CN is bigger with more reach so I was leaning that way but wanted your take. Why would you go with one over the other? This would be in my TFSA.

(I feel like I have enough spicy growth names in my TFSA and am looking for something I can let sit for 20 years and not think about.)

Thanks

Q: I am coming up on the 30 day mark where I can repurchase shares that I sold to harvest some tax loses. Granted the market has been strong of late but I purchased some proxies on your recommendation and they have performed well. Which would you refer at this point AD or EIF and similarly PPL vs ENB?
Thank you for your continued support and guidance

Q: There is news that Brookfield Infrastructure LP reduced the dividend by 10%. I suspect this simply reflects the dividends declared on Brookfield Infrastructure Corp, not a real reduction for the enterprise as a whole. Is this correct?

Q: NTR: never seems to report EPS in-line with guidance, price taker for fertilizers & has high P.R.. Positive side: low debt., retail business with higher margins than commodities. Why was recent Q so bad? Would now be a good time to buy this stock & is dividend sustainable?

Q: Hi Peter,
Like many, I'm interested in possibly buying a couple of stocks that have been hit by COVID but that should recover well when the world gets back to normal. However, I want to do this in a conservative way - with larger, stable companies with low debt and strong balance sheets; assured 'survivors'. Can you please suggest six North American stocks (other than banks) that I might consider. And would you see CGI (GIB) qualifying under those terms? Thanks as always.

Q: I held this company a fair while before the big acquisition. I sold for tax loss in Dec. and then bought back in Jan. for $16/sh; then, CV-19. They are still a major printer; so, I am thinking that they are not doing as much with all the closures. Do you think this is baked into the stock? How much debt. have they been paying off and do you think the dividend is sustainable? I am thinking of adding to my position - a tiny % of my total holdings of approx. 30 stocks.
