Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have a 5% position in BCE and a 4% position in NWC, which I consider both to be "full", relative to their "blue chip status". I have a little bit of cash available to top up either or both. With the recent weakness in both BCE and NWC, would you add to either at this time? From an asset allocation perspective it doesn't really matter which, although I could use a bit more in the consumer space.

BCE = Now that the election is behind us, does the threat of cell phone fee reductions seem more likely? What does the future look like?

NWC = At last reporting, I understand the airline expansion was possibly holding back results...any new news?

Thanks...Steve

Q: My Reit and Utilities have become underweight in my portfolio (not because they haven't done well - other stocks have just done better). What would be your top three value investments in these sectors today (they all seem a bit expensive right now) in both the US and Canada. i am looking for both income and a bit of growth.

Q: Good morning 5i team.
Keyera seems to be struggling lately. I saw a reference to Bellatrix bankruptcy as well as mention of rights issues (disputes with KML?) regarding the Alberta Crude Terminal and Baseline.
How big of an issue is Bellatrix bankruptcy for Keyera?
Can you provide any details on the issues with KML?

Thanks
Peter

Can you shed light on these issues.

Q: I own all three of these Brookfield companies BAM.A, BIP, and BEP at 1.23%, 0.86% and 1.08% weightings respectively (total 3.18%). I am a long term growth investor. From previous questions, I think it's okay to own all three correct and there is not much overlap. If I were to maintain a 4-5% weighting total in these companies, how would you weight each for maximum capital appreciation? Thanks!

Q: Hi, would like your opinion on psi going forward.
Is it a service company only for oil and gas,or is it also diversified to other sectors? How about debt and management?
Would this be a good tax loss candidate as I’am down 35%, then buy back, or would you stay out of the sector. I also have Vermillion ,WCP, SPB at 5-6% of portfolio
Thanks
