We are being quoted horrendous fees by the bank/ third party agency to sell them. Do you have any suggestions on how we can sell these shares at a reasonable cost. Would BCE buy them back directly?

I have some both in RRSP and non-RRSP acount

or should I replace them with other pipelines
I already have some TRP, PPL and for utilities, I have AQN, FTS and EMA
many thanks

Q: Could you perhaps give me any information regarding this US fund. Its a very small portion of my portfolio. It has made great returns for me since it goobled up a previous fund I was in, in 2017. The dividend is 16.81%. The stock drops of course every time it pays out. Two things I notice as potential trouble. In 2012 it did a 1/4 split? And how problematic are rising interest rate environment for this fund. Thanks......many thanks your information has made me very happy.

Q: I have some cash to invest and would like your advice as to whether to add to any of the above companies which I currently hold (at a loss in each) or sell them and put the funds into a new investment which generates some income. Thank you for your great service.

Q: I own the shares and the bond units. I do not subscribe to the theory to hold an equity even though its falling, because you 'get paid to wait'. In certain instances you can wait forever to get back the capital losses.

So with that parameter out of the way, what is your future investment outlook for H given what has occurred today and the meddling that will occur in the future (your guess is better than mine)?

There are many income stocks to chose from, look at it from the capital preservation/downside approach.

Thanks

Q: Despite increase in rate by BOC,BCE is up nicely the last 3 days.Note that telcom services up 1.5% today.Any reason for BCE's performance?Is this an entry point for BCE,Thanks for u usual great services & views

Q: Hello
I just read about the tariffs applied to P&G more specifically the toilet paper they sell here in Canada.

I assume that if P&G up the price of Charmen TP in Canada then KPT will follow and hike the price of its Casmere TP. Thus increasing their margins.

Do you think this development is ''material''for KPT?

Thanks
Stephane
