Investment Q&A

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

Q: I was talking to my financial advisor about getting into a couple of high dividend securities north of 4% with some growth. They mentioned AW.UN, LIF, CGX, EXE. They said most of them have had a run except for the KEG and they said that one might be the better one. Which ones do you like of this group I have mentioned or are there any that you could recommend?
Thank you, Dennis

Q: could you give me your opinion on if you were starting a new dividend stock between AltaGas or emera which would you choose. Emera has just guided down dividend growth for a few years and just wondering your take on both as a dividend investment with some growth.
thanks

Q: Good morning,
Looking to understand BCE 's ongoing weakness, especially relative to Telus, in light of a more than a 1% differential in yield in BCE's favour. Is the market telling us something that we are missing? Should we be buying or reevaluating?

Thank you,

Q: Good day to all. I am looking for a few very good value stocks. It seems that many investors are beginning to do the same. I am well diversified so your answer could include any sector and dividends are not that important but would be a nice bonus.
Thank you
Have a great weekend

Q: I have a question about MSI. I have held MSI for some time and have a significant capital gain. I am currently wondering whether I should be selling some/all of the position based on its high valuation, lack of dividend increases and fairly static stock price. However, I am attracted to its potential stability in a down market and the overall "steady eddy" nature of the business.
May I have your thoughts?
Thanks

Q: I own both Eci and Bip.un in a registered account.
I am curious how you see the shares of Bip.un reacting to the tender. Will this not be diluting Bip.un shares forcing them lower. Would it be wise to sell and repurchase later or purchase another company you recommend.( please give examples)
Thanks Drew

Q: Hi all, With today's (16 Aug) climb, I am almost breaking even with this one after more than a year. I am trying to position my portfolio with dividend stocks that have some growth opportunity (like many I have observed here). Should I take the opportunity and get out and look for a dividend stock with more growth in this space? Or is this possibly the beginning of an uptrend in DR.

Thank You, Stephen S

Q: I would like to reduce my utility / infrastructure holdings by one or two names. These are all partial positions except for FTS, which is full. Could you rank 1 - 7 in terms of keep:sell or just suggest one or two sell candidates? Thank-you.

Q: Hi there, I owned ala.r which were converted into ala. On my statements, the firm took back all the dividend income I received from March to July of this year (even though it was supposed to be interest income, not dividend income). I got a return of capital and interest equaling the dividend amount clawed back. The vast majority was ROC, with minuscule interest. Ala.r was supposed to pay an equivalent amount of interest to holders of ala.r as the dividend was. So since March 18 I did not receive that, just a little interest. The way I calculate it, Alta gas got the use of my investment for five months basically free. Do you agree. Tx. John
