Investment Q&A

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

Q: KWH.UN has dropped quite significantly, even though they have declared a dividend increase and improved numbers all round last quarter (EBITDA, Revenue, Customer base, etc). Any reason for the drop that you can see, or is it just the run from Canada and income stocks. Would you rate it a buy at these prices for the income investor?

Q: Since mid-year when VNR hit $23, it has been on a steady decline and then, of course, with the new threat on renewables, it has dropped considerably. Q3 showed weakness in Gaz Metro net income and now I await YE results. Any insight into what Q4 looked like? Should I sideline this one and wait for the dust to settle on the renewable threat or should I just sell because VNR will continue to perform poorly?

Q: I see that a number of very interest-sensitive vehicles are still included in your income portfolio such as CPD, XHY and BEP.un and a few others.
Given what happened last week and right now with interest rates should we be lightening our position on these types of investments? Put another way, is it your call that medium and long rates will keep on going up?

Q: Hi, ENB and BIP make up up 16% of my equity portfolio (8% each), plus I own BAM at 4%. I've been considering a trim but they've been the stalwarts of my portfolio and I've been skeptical of a big inflation/interest rate increase. Now, with talk of Trump's inflationary fiscal policy, do you think it's time to reduce these stocks? or do you feel the benefit of infrastructure spending will offset the negative effects of rate increases on these stocks?
Thanks.
