Q: Corby Spirit and Wine versus Diageo plc (adr)
Please comment which is a better hold for long term capital growth and dividend growth.
I hold Diageo in a rrsp account to mitigate the fully taxable dividend and would hold Corby in a taxable account to take advantage of the dividend tax credit.
Thanks for the excellent service.

Hi, I dont have much experience in buying fixed income corporate bonds. What do you think about this one as a part of my fixed income allocation. The bank charges a $50 commission so a $5000 par value comes to about $5,703.85 CAD at todays rates. My other fixed income buys are etfs like VSC, BXF, VAB for about 15% of my portfolio. Thanks very much. Have a great cruise! Cheers, Shyam

Q: What is your opinion re Algonquin Power (AQN)? It has a good dividend and rising stock price over the last few quarters but the Price to earnings looks high (about 28/1).
Q: Your opinion on this company and wouldIs would u buy for income? Thanks Clare
Q: Don't see much Q/A on Airline companies. Would have thought they would be getting a boost to the bottom line in 2016 due to the low (and going lower) cost of oil. WJA share price looks pretty beat up right now. Can you come up with any negatives on this stock?
Q: Hello, would you recommend this fund over HFR? VSB has a management fee of .10 vs. .40 for HFR, and VSB has lower mer as well. Is one lower risk than the other? I have a fair bit of cash and wish to "park it" in a low risk bond fund. Thank you. Bill.
Q: I hold EEP in my RRIF and have watched it drift lower these days from 40.00 to 17.00 U.S. in the past year. The dividend is now over 13%, is this sustainable? I also hold ENF and their shares are much in the same boat dropping from 40 to 26 dollars. Do you have any recommendations here for the future. Thank You

Q: I own (have for 6 yr.) the ETF XRE in my RIF; however, was thinking of buying this one for my non-registered acct: on a TTM basis P.E = 4.6, P/B = .75, ROE a healthy 21% and the P.O. Ratio 55% - the only negative I can see is debt is over 4x equity. I was thinking of adding this one as a small position of 1500 shares - what do you think??
Q: I am looking for 5 examples of long term buy and hold CDN equities that with dividends reinvested along with regular dividend growth will act as compound interest vehicles over time.
These will be held in a TFSA by a millennial friend of mine and have a 25 to 30 year run to her retirement.
Thanks in advance,
Greg.

Q: Good day to Peter and all the 5I staff,
I am looking to add to our taxable account another position in consumer discretionary sector. What are your thoughts on ctc at this time? It is off it's highs hopefully due to general market malaise. We are retired and this is for a long time hold.
Thanks for everything.
Larry
