Q: Hi, I’am down 5.90% on INE and was thinking of switching to ACI for better growth. I would lose $2000 on the trade, so would like your opinion for a 3+ year hold of ACI. Do you think It would be worth while or too close to call,and may just be spinning my wheels.
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i Team
I am reviewing alternative high yield C$ investments for my RRSP for a small portion of my fixed income (< 5% of total portfolio ).
Looking at the publicly traded mortgage investment corporations (MIC) on the TSX - of the four listed, which would be your preferred choice and/or ranked in order.
Are there any other MIC listed on the TSX?
Could you also confirm that "dividends" for MICs are considered as "interest" if held in a non-taxable account.
Thanks in advance for the great service.

Q: I have held both of these stocks for over 5 years. A&W has done well , but not Boston Pizza, I'm about 15% down of the purchase price of BPF. Do enjoy the high dividend of BPF. Both are held in a RRSP account. They are 2.25% and 1.40% of the portfolio. Trying to decide if I should sell Boston Pizza and add to A&W. or move to another stock for growth. I like to buy and hold. Any thoughts would be helpful

Q: Hi, I switched from BCE to Telus about 18 months ago for growth and dividend, but I see BCE is out performing on growth and has higher dividend.
Are my numbers correct ? And would you add to Telus within limits, as it may be undervalued?
Thanks

Q: Peter,

Is the rate reset spread on preferreds only good until the reset date? If so, do companies tend to renew at a similar spread or can it vary greatly?

Thank you

Q: I am retired and rely on my dividends to supplement my pension. I own full positions in TRP, PPL and ENB. I am starting to get worried about ENB with all the talk of lawsuits, Line 5 and Michigan. I am considering selling ENB and either adding to my PPL and TRP positions or buying IPL to replace ENB. Your thoughts ?
