Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,
I noticed on my statements this year that BIP.UN charges me a fee with each quarterly distribution. I suspect this must have something to do with the limited partnership structure but am puzzled why I would receive a distribution and get charged a fee simultaneously. As an investor who tries to minimize fees, your input is much appreciated.
Best wishes,

Q: Good afternoon....I was wondering what your thoughts on COS (CDN Oil Sands) with a dividend of 6.5%...basically form Income perspective as I would not anticipate much growth...based on the current volatility in the oil markets...would you say the dividend is safe? looking at longer term hold 3 to 5 years..

Q: re: LNR

Saw your comment a few days ago. I am seriously considering a position in Linamar because I believe the auto industry has a bright future in the next couple of years and I feel Magna is a little pricey at it's current levels which leaves Linamar as an alternative for getting involved.

I think I know the answer to your opinion re: my comment on a the bright future. Do you think my comment on Magna is accurate? And with keeping in mind the Sept market blues (as usual) we are seeing right now, would your advice be to buy Linamar now, wait and see or not buy?

Stock is up today 1.52%

Thanks for all you do

Gord

Q: Good morning,

I hold HCG ($43) in my RRSP for growth and have been watching it's slow decline the past week.
Is this interest rate related or manipulation in anticipation of earnings. Would you add at a lower level?

Hope all is going well on the ride

Q: Hi,

The 3rd Quarter results Com Dev shows the declined revenue affected by US gov budget. The good messages from the report are the improved commercial revenue as well as the increased revenue stream from extracEarth.

Do you think the current price dip offers a buying opportunity?

Thank you

Q: Hi 5 I Team -- Might there be any further insight into Linamar's (LNR) performance, of late? After its 52-week high in June, it's been on a very slow, but steady decline, despite a very good last Quarter. There is much rumbling among analysts that the automotive industry is "nearing its peak" and that investors in the auto sector should be thinking of taking their profits. I am up 24.9% at this point, and would prefer not to see my profits erode anymore, especially as I don't have an exceptionally long time frame for this portfolio -- less than 2 years. Do you feel the auto sector has had its day, or is it just September Doldrums? I notice that Magna, AutoCanada also have been grinding to a slow halt. Is this just a resting period for the sector, or is there something flying under the radar that most ordinary investors are missing?

Q: weq, what is your take on fund raise and purchase of new company, buy sell or hold. dave

Q: Any reason for WesternOne (WEQ) being down nearly 5% today? Don't see any news.

Q: Hello, would you have recommendations for companies in the solar or wind sector to add to a diversifed portfolio. I am interested in small or large caps, growth or dividend payer and i can take some risk. 2 - 3 names would be great if possible and my time frame is 5 year +. Thanks for the great service.
