Q: Your opinion on whether to purchase TransCanada Pipe OR Canadian Utilities. As far as I can tell, both have a long history of increasing dividends. For long term dividend income play; if you had to pick one, which would it be?
Thank you

Q: Hi Peter,
I am thinking of purchasing LIQ but noticed it has rallied significantly in the past few days. What do you think of this company? Should I be aggressive to purchase it at current levels or can I be patient and accumulate it on dips?

Q: Hi Peter and Co, and a very prosperous New Year to all,
Would you give me your opinion on XTR, the ishares Diversified Income ETF? I've held this for a while in RRSPs and wonder if it is a good choice for the income part. If not, please make some alternative suggestions.
Many thanks

Q: Hi and happy new year. I am a new member and love your service. Just renewed at the discount rate even though I have only been a member for 3 months. I am impressed with your dedication, I recently asked a question at 6:30 AM and you gave a great answer by 7 am. The Early bird gets the worm. Now to the question: The Vanguard corporate bond ETF "VSC". What do you think. Seems like a small fund but mer is only about .18 per cent.I need to rebalance my stocks which have done very well in the past 4 years and buy some bonds. Corporates still seem the only way to go at this point.

Q: Bell Aliant (BA) pays a much better dividend than the big three telecos. If you were to pick just one, are there good reasons to prefer BCE, T or RCI? Is BA more risky?
Q: Dear 5i,
As a quick follow up to my previous question on TransCanada TRP, I also currently have about 3.0% of the portfolio in IPL. I was thinking of using some of the proceeds from selling TRP.PR.D to bring that up to 5.0% in IPL. Having another pipeline seems like a good idea and Enbridge is in the Model Portfolio as well. Is that still the best pick today or would you suggest TRP or Pembina?
Also, saw the posting of the December 2013 portfolio. Congratulations or your out-performance! I know it won't always be like that, but you did very well for your membership. I've been really using the service and learning a lot from you!

Q: Hi 5i team. Final question in 2013. Would you classify BIP.UN as utility? What about BEP.UN? Resource? How will they behave, classwise, going forward? Best in the New Year. Henry
Q: Happy New Year, Peter and staff!!
I am a relatively new subscriber to 5i but have been with Money saver for a long time (I love that magazine). And I really like this 5i service!
I look after the affairs of my mother who is 81, we have a bunch of GIC’s / bonds coming due in a non-registered account. The fixed income portion of her portfolio is about 50%. The rest is in dividend paying blue chips such as banks, telecom’s, insurance, energy. These have been held for quite a while and have been serving her very well.
I am looking at a few ETF’s for the income portion, I am interested in short term laddered government as well as corporate bond funds. Analyzing ETF screens, I have been looking at CLF, CBO, ZCS, VSC and ZCM. I am thinking of perhaps splitting her fixed income to 2 or 3 of these or similar accounts.
I would really appreciate your thoughts on these and other ETF’s that I should strongly consider.
Thank you, Dale
