Q: Good morning,
Looking at utilities with high yield I came across a report that forecasts growth of 44% for 2018 and 95% for 2019. Are these numbers good ?
How are they going to fund the acquisition and is it going to be a problem ?
Debt is high so is payout ratio for 2018. Probability that the deal closes soon seems high.
What is your take on it ?
Thanks and enjoy the long weekend !

Q: Hi,
My question is: With the swamp that seems to be filling and not draining in the US, and the reported near-deal between BPY.UN/BAM.A (one of their biggest investors is the Qatar Investment Authority) and the Kushners in New York for 666 Fifth Ave., do you see any heightened risks owning BAM.A/BPY.UN? If so, what, if any action should an investor be considering?
Many thanks, Michael

Q: ENB has a history of shuffling assets between entities / corporate restructuring and it makes an investor wonder if there are bigger problems behind it all given the frequency. If this issue was ever examined in more detail, it would be interesting what details would emerge. I would have thought that 5i would be curious as well. Comments?
Thank you,
Randy

Q: The share price on this company is on a tear since the 1/4ly report.
Do you think this because it was a good report and people are buying back in, looking back to where the share price was 3 years ago with the hope of a good capitol gain, or is this a typical case of piling on to get the special dividend, only to sell, sell, sell, once it goes ex-dividend next Friday.
Thanks again for all your wonderful insights.

Q: 11:11 AM 5/17/2018

Current yield on ENF at today's price [$29.41] is 7.6%. Enbridge yields 6.3% at the current price [$42.41].

I am trying to find an acceptable alternative company to ENF to invest in that would have a comparable yield and have the same level of business quality, Market Cap, and reliability of dividend.

IPL, ALA, GEI, RNW, CHW, TF, SRV.UN, KPT, JE, KWH.UN, CHE.UN all have similar dividends but are hardly equivalent in quality. Would you pick any of these?

I cannot find any acceptable substitute of the same quality so I would appreciate your suggestions in ANY sector that you would choose.

Maybe just taking ENB shares is the best choice?

Thank you............ Paul K

Q: I hold 1000 ENF shares and if the deal goes through they will convert to a 0.7029 share of ENB. I would then own a total of total 703 ENB shares. The price of ENB today is $42.28 which means I would hold a value of $29,723 in ENB if the deal goes through. If the price of ENB goes up lets say to $45.00, do I still receive 0.7029 shares of ENB for each ENF share I hold and would then have an ENB value of $31,633 and therefore making a profit of $1,910 from today if I sold it, in this scenario?

Q: I am currently considering selling Transcanada for a small tax loss-$2000- and immediatly buying Enbridge. This would give me a rather large allocation to Enbridge, which I currently own, as well.

Just wondering whether it was worth the trouble. And possibly the risk of having a large allotment to one stock. Do you think Enbridge has a big chance of rising much more than TRP? or, are they likely to rise at the same pace? (that is, of course, if they rise).

I guess I am asking you to put your magical, look into the future glasses on here, but I am sure you would have a better idea than me on this.
thanks once again
