Investment Q&A

Q: Hello. What are some Cdn list companies that pay dividends in USD? Any with decent yields (above 5%) and/or with solid dividend growth? Thanks!

Q: You have beaten down on all the the pro's and cons about tel, and bce. My situation is the fact that I have to convert my rrsp to a riff. I am way down on bce and tel, I have no plan to sell, this is my reasoning. the value that I use for with with drawls is the current price and not what I paid. As such my return is 10% and 8 %. My goal is to make enough on dividends to be higher than 5% so I am not taking out for money than I make, since I don'd need the money, and hope a little capital gain thereby not depleting my rrif. Since bce has allready said that they will not increase the payout, I think that tel has a better chance of increasing the pay out, thinking of adding some more. I have some piple lines that have gone up a lot and I am getting a good return on them. Looking to buy a solid company that has a good dividend. What say you, is my plan make sense?
Thanks

Q: what is your take concerning the plan of arrangement proposed by BEPC

Q: I've noticed you do not have any covered call ETFs in your income portfolio. If not appropriate in your minds, are there any good situations for this type of investment, and if so, when? What are the PROs amd CONS? What are the better strategies or alternatives?

Q: If one were to compare CNR and CP.
1. in your opinion which one has better valuation?
2. in your opinion do you think they will be significantly negatively impacted with Trumps policies?
3. in your opinion which railway will be effected the least?

Q: My Consumer Cyclical sector is too low; I need to increase it. What are your Canadian recommendations in this sector at the moment? Thank you

Q: Should we worry about those recent earnings? Still hoping the real estate spinoff is worth the wait.

Q: I hold these stocks in a registered account. Both are down since the start of the year (2024). Is this a good opportunity to add. Long term hold. You thoughts Thanks David

Q: Please provide brief analysis on quarter and if this is still a stable LT hold with great capital allocators

Q: Thoughts on the quarter for Leon's. With a sluggish Canadian economy and curtailed immigration I am concerned about their ability to grow. That being said, management is excellent and they have the upcoming reit spinout. What should shareholders expect in the REIT spinout? Do you see some nice upside due to this or have most of the gains been made around the announcement.
Thanks Rob

Q: Good Morning,

SPB has bounced back somewhat since the recent dividend cut.

Do you expect any further appreciation or is now a good time to sell.

Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i,
It was mentioned that AW:CA is worth keeping for income. So far I am down $3,000. Is there a reason for this? I know we are not fortune tellers, but after an initial period of indecision would it be expected to go up? Would you suggest an adding to QSR in a U.S. account or another Canadian option? If so what should be considered? Time frame is five years for this 78 year old income investor.

Q: Please comment on EIF's latest Q and acquistion of Spartan Mat on Nov7,and going forward Reached $57.69 ATH on Nov 8,then retreated to close at $55.87 - .02 .Buy/add,Hold or Trim. Txs for U usual great services & views

Q: I opted to do the split (keep 70%) and did okay but there is no indication about its dividend. Right now there is no dividend. What gives?

Q: Good morning,

Just looking for confirmation of the recently-announced TRP and SOBO dividends.

I see TRP @ C$0.823 for an indicative yield of 4.85%.
I see SOBO @ US$.50, for an indicative C$ yield of ~ 8.5%.

It would seem to me that if one is + on the space, given recent analyst estimates for both companies, owning both makes sense over the near-term. While I like the SOBO yield, I had forgotten that the TRP yield would drop a bit.

Thanks as always.

Q: Which one do you prefer? Thanks.

Q: With BCE’s dividend yield now at 10% following a sharp drop in its share price, do you think the management might decide to cut the dividend soon? I’d appreciate your thoughts on this.

Q: Can you please give your opinion on which of these two companies will be most negatively affected going forward by:

- disruption

- competition

Which has the best outlook for its:

- balance sheet

- business growth

- dividend growth

Ultimately if you had to sell one or choose only one for a long term investment, which would it be?

Q: Hi 5i, thoughts on quarterly release pls and thx. Numbers look OK, and their capx seems to be decreasing. Is due to them nearing completion of 5g build out? If so this company should turn into a cash flow machine to pay down debt and other shareholder friendly moves.

Q: Buy, sell or hold with a few comments on each
Much appreciated. ram
