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.
Is 3% of total RSP/TFSA/cash portfolio.
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?

Q: My wife and I own POW and PWF respectively in our taxable accounts, both purchased earlier this year. There was an article in the Globe & Mail a couple of days ago about shareholder dissatisfaction with corporate governance, specifically referring to members of the Desmarais family.

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-power-corp-faces-shareholder-dissatisfaction-with-company-governance/

Any thoughts on this article? I get the feeling that this is not a new issue. Thanks.

Q: Hi,

I own both versions of TRI stock and it does very well but I'm worried its momentum is unsustainable. If you look at a five year chart, it's becoming parabolic. Why is this company doing so well, has such a remarkable beta, and what are its prospects in the next five years?
