Q: What is your view at this time of Canadian bond proxy stocks versus Cdn dividend growth stocks, and their valuations relative to interest rates?

If you are of the view that dividend growers are more appropriate at this time, can you provide three growers that you recommend, and 3 bond proxy stocks that you would suggest to stay away from, to better understand the types of stocks that fall into this category. Thanks.

Q: Greetings 5i,

I currently hold a full position in BCE, and consider it one of my "core" holdings. Moreover, I very much like the prospects of the telecom sector as a whole, given its (at least in theory) ability to hold up well under adverse economic conditions. Thus, I have been considering adding a position in either AT&T or VZ to diversify my geographical exposure to the sector. I have a fairly long time horizon (I am 36), and am in no great rush, but would, nonetheless, greatly appreciate your insight into each as a long-term "core" addition to a generally conservative portfolio.

Thank you.

Q: Market linked GICs are generally viewed quite negatively. However, I am interested in them in two specific ways. First and more generally as a substitue for the bond portion of your portfolio are they really all that bad? Secondly and this is more specific. If you had money in a child's RESP and needed it in 3 to 5 years, and presuming that it is enough to cover basic expenses and safety is paramount, would it not be a resonable place to park the money?

Thank-you.

Q: I recently inherited 500 shares of AT&T, what is your opinion of the company? I have not done any research but recent price action has been negative suggesting some adverse news or changes. I already have 1260 shares of BCE for telecom exposure.

Should I hold or sell?
