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

Q: XMF.PR.B is a preferred split share fund from Quadravest. It invests solely in shares of Manulife . The fund sells at about $5.10 and pays a 7.3% dividend monthly. My understanding is that it has never missed paying the dividend in over 10 years. The fund guarantees to buy back your share at $5.00 on the anniversary date, which is December 1st 2024. It would appear to have bond like characteristics with a high payout. Your input would be appreciated.

Q: In the current lower interest rate environment the "cash cow" type of yield investments like AD and DIV should be thriving and yet both stocks are being sold off of late. What am I missing here? You view would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Good morning, we all know BNS has underperformed. Now it seems like South America is as rocky as ever. Venezuela and now Argentina are economic disasters and Brazil is going through plenty of volatility as Balsanaro implements his agenda. I know BNS is not in the 3 countries mentioned but how impactful could the latest SA economic woes be to BNS?? I would love to buy more shares with the 5% dividend but cautious due to SA exposure.

Q: Hello Can I get your analysis on NextEra. It seems to be comparable to Bep.un which I hold, but bigger. I am looking at this for a long term investment. If you think this is a worthwhile investment, would there be a particular time of year to buy or just jump in and slowly accumulate to 5% weighting? Thanks
