Q: Hi,

I've just converted a significant amount of cad to USD. This is cash I plan on deploying in the event of a market correction. In the mean time, I am looking for a usd vehicle to park my cash, with the primary goal being capital preservation. Do you have any suggestions? I was thinking something like horizon's HFR etf-does something équivalent exist for USD? Please advise if such an etf exists, and what your preferred vehicle would be.

Thank you
Karim

Q: Trying to add to my knowledge base with your superb guidance .... so this is a follow up to my earlier question where I asked if CN and CP were oversold; but I neglected to mention that I had been looking at the W% and the RSI for both companies. To my untrained eye, they appeared to be oversold or close to being oversold. Would you please take a look at these parameters and let me know what you think.

Thanks again.

Q: What is the payout ratio on these two stocks? When i research there is conflicting information from a payout ratio of 60-70% to a high of over 175%.

What is the forward 1 year P/E ratios on these? Is this an important figure to watch?


Morningstar reports BIP.UN and BEP.UN free cash flow dropping 3 consecutive years and BEP.Un reporting Negative earnings. Would a short seller like the one on EIF pounce on this or do you view these companies as more safe?

Are these still good investments on a 10 year plus time horizon and would it be better held in a registered or unregistered account.

thanks

Thanks.
