Investment Q&A

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

Q: this is just a comment in your response to Earnest on his question about the bep.un and other co.s which pay div in us funds. as far as investorline goes, for your rrsp you do not need a separate us account you can keep your funds in us dollars or cdn or a mix in the one account.if he is using his investorline rrsp all he has to do is phone them and tell them to keep the div in us funds and not to convert to cdn. I did so with no problem and moved my other rrsp acct from td to bmo for this very reason, so much easier to keep track of everything in one account and you can convert currency very easily on your own whenever you want.

Q: The 3 current dogs in my portfolio are Wajax ( -40%), Bomber ( -30%) and Husky (-45%). Do you see an upside to keeping any of these stocks or is it time to suck it up and move on? Wajax is paying me 4.5% to be patient, Husky not so much but oil upside, and well I think I know the answer for Bombardier.

Q: I have only 17 percent in fixed income, I am sixty, still working, with a fairly well balanced portfolio and no plans to use the income for quite a few years. I currently have most of my fixed income in CBO and CLF with some XHY. I would like to add another 5-10 percent and I am wondering if just adding to what I have is the best way to increase my Fixed Income allocation.

Q: Could you please outline the risks in holding these types of high yield bond ETFs, with respect to the effect on the capital and yield components. I have a long term (15-20 years) view.

Are there scenarios where more stable bonds (ie. XBB) might outperform it over a longer period (15-20 years) of time?

Thank you

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and 5i Team
I yearn for a position in a pipeline company. Do you think the sector is fully valued at this point, or could one of the group be cheap, or at least be reasonably priced, and provide growth possibilities. I am anticipating that the oil price will increase over the next few years.

Q: This is not a question but a remark on Alaris Royalty. You state in a reply to a member: (Date: Mar 02, 2017 07:16 AM), "we would be cautious on any company that has cut dividends in the past. AD has so we would rule it out for your restrictions". If Alaris has cut it's dividend sometime in the past, I can find no record of that happening. As a satisfied if frustrated owner of AD I would like you to specify when this cut occured please and Thank you.
