Investment Q&A

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

Q: Based on the information I'm getting from various sources, it seems to me that it's time rearrange my portfolio to reflect the possibility of a recession in the near future. Based on that premise, I've decided to buy the 'best of the best' dividend and dividend increasing companies in Canada. I would appreciate it if you would suggest the absolute best quality companies Canada has to offer an investor in the so called "more conservative" sectors. I'm thinking sectors like pipelines, utilities, telcos but I'm open to other sectors/companies you think will hold up well in a recession. I'm looking for at least 6-8 companies that you believe would fit these criteria. Thanks as always for your guidance.

Q: These two companies will be sold in my RRSP (Valener) and Cash (Crius) accounts. I have held these stocks as income producers. What would be good replacement stock(s) for these when they are sold. For Crius, if you could, give me 4 or 5 stocks that could replace it for income. My portfolio is well diversified and I am looking for a 4-6% dividend paying stock. Thanks, as always, for the guidance.

Q: Should I be starting to worry about this stock?
Am retired investor down $3.00 but that is OK as bought as long term investment for its dividend.
Is the dividend secure?
Are they running into problems/ cost overruns on plastics plant they are building,trouble getting financing or partnership for it?
I know anything to do with oil (especially in Canada) is acting poorly but IPL is lagging the pipeline sector.
In my RSP so tax loss available.

Does the street know something the average joe doesn't?
Comments / Suggestions?
Thanks
Derek

Q: You briefly answered a question today about how a Hauwei ban in Canada might affect Telus ("equipment replacement"). Can you expand on this and provide more colour on the effects of such a ban on Telus (eg would you expect this to cause a drop in Telus share price)? Related to that, the effects on BCE and RCI.b relative to Telus (ie which of the three will fare the best)? Thx!!

Q: Hi all,
I am a buy and hold dividend investor looking for income and some growth with a 5+ year horizon. I am considering opening first positions in the above mentioned Brookfield family. I am interested in your opinion on the relative merits of these investments (how would you rank them). Also how / where should they be held in relative order to minimize taxes - Open / RRSP / TFSA - CAN / USD account?
Thank-you
Ken

Q: It seems interest-rate sensitive stocks might be a good place to be right now and my sense is REITS and the banks have been beaten up the most.
Not sure I'm ready to jump back into banks, but would consider it if you're bullish.
Would you give me your best ideas for REITs and possibly Dividend payers.
And do you think my theory is correct?
