Investment Q&A

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

Q: Which would you choose to add a conservative nature to a senior's portfolio, AQN or AW.UN.ca and why? I note AQN is not in any model portfolio and yet its performance seems better than that of AW.UN and with less volatility.

Q: The only one I've owned and still do in this group is SLF - been a great investment over last 10 years +. I was thinking of buying MFC for my wife's portfolio since she does not have an insurance company. MFC's balance sheet looks great: very little debt., low pay-out ratio (lots of room to increase dividends). The stock seems to languish - low interest rate environment, I guess? Do you like this one for the long haul??

Q: Hi 5i
Both Rogers and Telus seem to be on downward trends recently. Do you have any explanation why and should a current shareholder be overly concerned. Would you be sellers, buyers or holders at current levels?
Thx

Q: To maintain monthly or quarterly income during this period of uncertainty, I am planning to invest in more stable entities - namely Real Estate in Canada. My thoughts are for Apartment Rental Housing and Seniors Housing. Would appreciate your choices for the most stable as well as yield. Thank you.

Q: I have owned this stock for 10 years - 1000 shs - small position in portfolio - my cost base is approaching zero due to all the dividend increases over time which I reinvest in other opportunities. I also own 1000 shs of T which I bought 3 years ago when they were cheap. I notice that BCE pays out almost 100% of profits in dividends; so, I assume based on FCF the picture is not quite as bad? I was thinking of adding another 500 shs of BCE? I also own: NFI, TCL.A, BMO. CB, BNS, TC, ENB.IFC,BIP.UN - all in non-registered account. Or should I add to NFI & TCL.A after they report in Sept. - bought these 2 last year and have not done well - I can hold for the long haul.
