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

Q: I am a new member to 5I Research.
Can you please review the beneficial tax implications of receiving dividends from Canadian companies vs companies outside of Canada?

With this in mind, what would be 10 top dividend paying Canadian companies you would recommend for a tax efficient retirement income?

Thanks and I look forward to your reply.

Q: BMO has new issues ie. Bank of Montreal U.S. Equity (CAD Hedged) Callable Income Principal At Risk Notes, Series 789 (CAD). Is there a simple description of these auto callable shares. Are they risk protected? How? It seems that these may be “ timely” given the market meltdown and not necessarily very investable. I found these while researching fixed income.

Q: I'm looking for suggests on where to invest about $18K that I have in cash that's in two RRSP's and my TFSA, from stock sales and cash deposits in 2018.
My total portfolio is about $53K, with $22K already in RBC, BNS and BAC, also $3.5K in Goeasy and $1.5K in Orca Gold, I'm still up on all of these even with 2018. I have a further $7K in various oil, gas and a driller, these I'm under water over 50%, but like to keep them for now and try to recoup some of those loses as I think they are very oversold.
Can you give me some ideas for investing my cash, I'm looking for longer term investments not just trades, I would prefer dividend paying stocks but would also be interested in non-dividend payers as well. I want to stick to Canadian companies for now as the dollars is down some much against the US.
Also should I look at trimming the banks stocks I currently have, I'm quite overweight on them, but I'm not worried at this point with the amount I have tied up in them.

Q: Sold Cliq and Ygr today at a loss. Bought MAXR at $ 15.60. Yield of 9% ???. Would it be a good idea or sell into the strength.? In spite of their problems in the past current fundamentals don’t look all that bad. How big a problem is their debt. New arrangements with their bankers. I’m mainly a dividend / growth investor. This is my only tech stock. 3% of portfolio.
