Q: Hi, I am thinking about taking some profits from PKI and adding to my position in AD. This will lower my average cost,and increase the dividend I receive, but mainly I would hope to catch some of the upside momentum the stock has shown lately.
So really the question is, do you see the positive upside movement to continue. Many thanks

Q: I apologies; I mis-phrased my question. The DRIP investments would be in addition to the TFSA and RSP investments (in different securities). As I understand things, a DRIP with a company sponsored plan such as TRP thru Computershare cannot be held inside a registered account. Is this correct? If so the $5k position in the non-registered (DRIP) account would not amount to a $25k per stock concentration and I believe the dividend tax credit would be useful since the account is non-registered. Thank you for your suggestions and service. I like your suggestions but a little surprised that a utility such as FTS was not recommended. Is there a reason you would not suggest a utility DRIP for a long term hold? Jim.

Q: My 36 yr old daughter has a current portfolio of $150k in RSPs and her TFSA. She is interested in enrolling in 6 true company DRIPs that she would start with approximately $5,000 each and contribute to over time. Her intent would be to keep these shares to ultimately use the dividends for retirement income in 20-30 years. In the meantime, the dividend tax credit would be useful offsetting the income earned. Is this a good strategy and if so can you suggest 6-8 companies that she might consider for this purpose? Thank you for your help. Jim

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
