Investment Q&A

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

Q: I hold these 3 bowzers and am obviously getting whipped. Is there any sound logic in combining the 3 into just one of them and that one would have the highest probability of the quickest recovery? I would turn to 5I for advice on which one that would be.

Q: 6:21 AM 4/26/2018
I own in excess of $100K in a combination of BEP.UN and BIP.UN bought on the TSX in Canadian Dollars in cash accounts at both TDWaterhouse and at Scotia McLeod. This year TDWaterhouse issued a statement of Foreign Ownership. Scotia McLeod did not. My accountant phoned Scotia McLeod and Scotia said they are both Canadian Companies so are not considered to be foreign so a T1135 form is not required. Can you clarify this issue please
Thank you........ Paul K

Q: Considering that Valener has dropped in price and that there are price target reductions is this a 'buying' opportunity?
Not quite sure why the reductions in price targets since this is pretty much a monopoly type utility type company ... unless I am missing something?
Thanks for the help!

Q: Hello, since the beginning of the year Altria (MO) stock has decreased by more than 20% in value. Has the time come to let it go? Do you believe there is a possibility that Altria could get into the Marijuana / Cannabis business? In your opinion, what would be the best 3 or 4 alternatives to (MO) in the US non cyclical sector (consumer defensive sector) right now? Thanks, Gervais

Q: May I please have your thoughs on today's selloff, and its sizable decline since its February highs. I realize it has been a victim of the Trump tariff talks, but is there any real concern here for a long-term investor? I was thinking of adding to my position since it has fallen to 2.8% of my portfolio, or would it be advisable to allocate new funds elsewhere?

Q: Over the past year it seems like most Canadian pipelines are buying a major US pipeline: Altagas, TRP, Enbridge, Fortis, Emera, Pembina, other? Why does this suddenly make economic sense, what makes US purchases so affordable?

Q: I bought Polaris Infrastructure recently recently and am curious about it's history.
In 2015 the stock traded for about 6800.00 if google finance is correct. A stock split in 2005 of 1:2000. Working it's way down to 800.00 in 2011 then 10.00 in 2015 and now at 20.00 after a gradual climb. Please describe what you know about what looks to my eyes like a strange history. Please talk about the management as well.
Thank You

Q: Hi 5,

I seen a post earlier today regarding MFT.
This ETF looks interesting. I'm wondering what you guys would think of using MFT instead of XHY within the income portfolio? Could you please list reasons for or against this change.

Thanks
