Q: PPL and others in the utility pipeline space have taken a major haircut in the last few days for no reason at all. Is the threat of a Fed rate increase really to blame? In real financial terms that is really immaterial. However, market movers have been using all threats (real or otherwise) to further their games of stirring stock movements. What is your take on this? Thanks.

Vanguard Dividend Appreciation FTF (VIG $226.77)
Q: Good morning,
Looking to clarify with regards to the Vanguard Dividend Appreciation etf's for an rrsp- if one wishes to have a currency effect( vis a vis US: Cdn dollar)they should purchase "VIG, or if looking to hedge and only feel the effects of the equity movements then purchase "VGG"? Also is there an equivalent for the IWO? Looking to add both to my portfolio and looking to see if they are a good complement.
With thanks,
Brad

Q: Hi, could you please comment on Parkland Fuel results. Thanks
Q: I just received news that the agreement between Glencore and NIF.UN will be renewed for another five years. However, "With the renewal of the Supply and Processing Agreement, the main challenge now facing the Fund will be to continue to operate its Processing Facility at a profit once market terms take effect May 3, 2017. The Fund’s Board of Trustees is mindful of the expected negative impact that the transition to market term pricing will have on the Fund’s operations, including its ability to sustain its distribution policy. The Board of Trustees is carefully reviewing the Fund’s reserves and will augment the reserves if necessary." Whatis your view on NIF.UN?

iShares S&P/TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats Index ETF (CDZ $43.53)
Q: Hi 5i. In April of 2015, you discussed Cdn Dividend ETF's, and suggested that because CDZ (iShares Cdn Div Aristocrats) focused on Co's that regularly increase dividends, that it outperforms other Cdn. Div. ETF's, particularly over the long term.
Do you still consider this view to be valid, particularly as it compares to XDV (iShares Cdn. Select Div. ETF) and ZDV (BMO Cdn. Div. ETF). Thanks T.
