Q: I have 100k to invest and require income from dividends as it for non registered account. Irregardless of sectors, which solid, dividend paying stocks would you buy that have been beaten down and provide the most dividends for the buck. Would you buy all at once or spread the purchases over a time frame.

Q: I own BIP.UN and have received BIPC in my non-registered account. Should I sell BIP.UN and buy BIPC to get higher Canadian dividend tax credit? Will there be any tax implication? Can BIP.UN be exchanged with BIPC, without incurring expenses? Thanks.

Q: I have been reading the questions and answers on nutrien. I think Nutrien has been holding up very well in this market and with spring coming, their retail business,, having bought Agrium quite a while ago, the potential for food shortages, a great dividend, I think nutrien is close to a back up the truck investment.
But I don’t read financials so can you tell me how well capitalized they are. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter,

Atrium announced yesterday that it will redeem its convertible bonds a month early (from end of June to beginning of May 2020). What is the purpose of this? Also, is it common for companies to have double digit dividend yields and not have any cuts? I understand that mortgage investment corps are more unique as they have to pay out all of their income which explains the high payout ratio (it's expected).

Thanks again

Q: Dear 5i,

For a new purchase in a NonReg account. Is it better to buy BIPC compared to BIP.UN due to the eligible dividend?
For a new purchase in a RRSP account which one is better to buy?
For a new purchase in a TFSA account which one is better to buy?
Can you confirm that a Canadian holder of any of the above receive the dividend
automatically converted by Brookfield into CDN dollars.

thanks

Ian
