Q: Hello Peter , I like divi , performance and low fees on this. What I dont like in VDY is high concentration to FINANCIALS ( and then ENERGY). Do you have any alternate suggestions with bit more rounded of sector holding and offering similar benefits.
Thanks

Q: I have had a small position in Keyera since before the oil price crash. It is still down 20% and even the most optimistic forecasts will only bring it close to my cost price. Its dividend is about the same at PPL, is lower than ENB and higher than TRP. ENB is my only other pipeline stock. I could sell KEY and add to ENB or open an position in PPL or TCP. Which do you think would be better for income and a little growth?

Q: CSW.A I owned this one oncemany years ago for quite a while and sold at nice gain. I am thinking of buying back at the current price? Seems to have minimal debt. - high pay-out ratio of 146%, liquidity ratios are great: dividend sustainable? Place to park money and earn a good dividend & would be a very small % of my portfolio?

Q: Hi 5I
Looking for some growth + income. Given the recent drop in cogeco share price would you consider this to be a good entry point to initiate a 2- 3 yr position or would you consider Rogers or Bce as better options?
Thanks

Q: I currently have AQN (2.5%), BEP (1.5%) and INE (1%) and would like to add a further 1.5% overall to the "green" utility sector of my portfolio. Do you feel that BLX would be a good addition?
If so, I am thinking of adding .5% to BEP (to bring it to 2%) and 1% to BLX and wanted to get your thoughts for a +/-5 year hold.
Thanks!

Q: PWF's investment in fintec (wealthsimple) as weĺl as their dividend looks interesting for a 5 to 10 year hold. The reorganization with POW also looks to have potential to unlock value and increase dividends. Do you recommend investing a full position at this time and if so, in which company. Alternatively, is there a better investment in fintec?
Thankyou
Ian

Q: Hi 5i,
Portfolio analytics shows I should increase my international holdings. I have $24,000 in my US$ TFSA account and I am considering VIGI for a long term hold. (Already have VEE and have been very pleased with VIG). Would appreciate your thoughts on including this in a TFSA as I believe there would be withholding tax? Thanks.

Q: Hello Folks:
My question is Canadian Banks such as TD (which we own) compared those in America such as JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley (which we also own). We have owned TD for a number of years which has not produced much of a return (except dividends); similar to BNS. would you suggest continuing with TD or feel their are better Canadian options than our banks?
Thank you for your great service!

Q: My question is on energy as I do not hold anything in this space. I have been looking at this company for awhile producing a high yield that the company says it will not cut. From what I understand this is holding the stock price as fears of a dividend cut. yet on the other side it is said if the dividend was cut it would probably help the stock price. My question if the stock is purchased you get the dividend and if the dividend is cut the stock price would most probably increase. any comments on this thesis.

thanks Dave
