Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good afternoon,
I hold the following stocks in my business account that have a weight of between 6.2% and 8.3%. This account was started in DEC/16 and has increased by 6.7% YTD not including dividends. I want to add six more stocks to further diversify while reducing the percentage per equity down to between 4 and 5%.

My goal is to generate income equal to the amount of corporate tax payable annually. I looks like this can be achievable!

Let me know if I need to share dollar values to help access.

Thanks,
Raymond

Q: I have 100K to invest, with the requirement that it all be in dividend tax credit eligible stocks, income and minimal overall risk are more important than growth in this account. I would like to keep it to no more than 10 names at approx 10K each, so far I have come up with BNS, CM, ENB, TRP,BCE,FTS,NWC, T, ALA,SLF. Do you have any concerns or suggested additions.

Q: I know these iShares ETFs were just released, but wondering if you were able to form an opinion on these based on its current holdings. The MER seems quite reasonable and am wondering you feel these would be suitable to gain diversification outside of Canada.

Thank you!

Q: I am interested in investing in dividend growers that 5-6 years from now would be yielding in the 4 to 5% range. At that time I would change from DRIP to cash payments. Therefore I would accept a lower yield now but would grow to that range. What would you suggest?

Thank you

Paul
