Q: Hello,
Most of our Cdn equities are individual blue-chip dividend stocks and our US equities (25%) are mostly SPY. Those are doing ok I guess, though together only slightly better than our GIC's to be frank. Two of our holdings, which we've held for close to a decade, are still not good as noted below. When I asked about these before, I think you recommended continued patience as has our IA too. Your thoughts at this time please?
Holding Book Value Market Value DRIP
CIX $30k $16k Yes
MFR.UN $181k $154k ?

Q: Hi 5i, I currently have 3 U.S. stocks now. Bank of America, Jpmorgan and Pfizer. Would like to add 1 or 2 more, thinking along the lines of a stock like Aqn ( just the quality doesn’t have to be in the category) just to let you know I’m up 117% on Aqn because of your recommendation sometime ago. So looking for decent growth, nice dividend and my time horizon is very long term.
Thx
Gerry

Q: My portfolio is light in consumer non-cyclicals. Last week I was considering the purchase of NWC for dividend in my non registered account. With the recent earnings release and drop in price is this a good entry point or should I move on?

Would PBH be a better choice? Or is there a better non-financial dividend payer to add to my portfolio?

Thank you

Stephen

Q: The yield on the issue was 5% ($1.25/share). The reset guarantee minimum is 5%. The trades are now trading at $21. This means the if I buy the shares at this price my guarantee floor is 5.9% ($1.25/$21).
If I am looking for income not dividend growth are some of these discounted prefs a reasonable option?

Thank you,
