Q: Hi Team,
Rogers Sugars stock is falling more than 10% today. I am following it as a possible defensive income stock to add to my portfolio ... Is it a good time to buy the stock?
What is your evaluation of the stock as of today and your explanations on the reasons behind today's big drop.

Thank you.

Michel

Q: A follow up to my question earlier today. I am assuming that the shorts are betting on the inability of the company to successfully cope with a higher churn rate. Do you agree? If not, why is the stock being shorted? What are your thoughts regarding the management team and the business model. Do you see tangible signs that the company is , and will be able to continue, coping with a higher churn rate?

Q: Lawrence Solomon's column in the Friday edition of the Financial Post clearly implies that solar and wind energy production in Germany is dying rapidly and he warns Canada about the dangers of this type of renewable power. May I please have your assessment of these sources of energy as they relate to Canada? What implications would this have for Brookfield renewable and Algonquin?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: I hold ENF for income. I was thinking of switching to ENB for a better growth component now the yield gap has closed, but I read that funding of capex could become a problem for ENB. You recently said ENB was safer than ENF. I am wondering why since ENF has essentially no debt and no capex beyond funding the ENB dropdowns.

Q: Hi Guys,

I own an Enbridge preferred share (ENB.PR.Y) which currently has a dividend rate of 5.285%. I am considering selling this preferred and buying the Enbridge common which has a current dividend rate of 7.055%. My motive for doing this is additional income and possibly higher capital gains in the future. I have no other investments in Enbridge and my stock allocation in pipelines can handle the change. I plan on purchasing a different company’s preferred share to make up for the loss of the Enbridge pref.

My questions are as follows:
1-From a safety of capital point of view, how much more risk do you think I will take on?
2-From a safety of income point of view, how much more risk do you think I will take on?
3-Do you see a downside to this move?

Thanks for the help.
John

Q: Hello Peter and 5i team,
What is your view of the wine industry in general and Andrew Peller in particular? A news article says that wine prices are set to rise as bad weather brings the worst harvest in 50 years to the industry leaders in France, Spain, and Italy. California was hit by wild fires and climate change is hurting other countries. Is this a positive or a negative for the Canadian wine industry?

I hold ADW.A in myTFSA and it has risen to an 18 % weighting. If I trim some ADW.A, which of the following would be your top pick for growth: BBU.UN, ENB, SYZ, Or GUD

Thank you very much for your opinion
