Q: IPL has announced a dividend increase, "the single largest". Do you know if the dividends going forward will now be eligible? I note the ticker has changed, so assume the conversion has been finalized. Thanks, J.
Q: Question: I bought this Brookfield Infrastructure {BIP.UN} a while back on the recommendation of Scotia McLeod. It appears to pay a fair yield but has shown no indication of growth so far.
It dropped in value shortly after I purchased the shares and has shown no growth to speak of since. How does this stock compare to the other Brookfield stocks?

Q: Hi,
Would you please give me your opinion on Carfinco vs Rifco.
Carfinco announced a new aquisition in the U.S., which means they are expanding but in the U.S., and we all know the hazards of that, ie: Tim Hortens ect. Is this a game changer for CFN.TO or a wait and see while I hold on to my Rifco.
Many thanks for the great service, it sure beats standing at the window taliking to myself!

Q: Hi Peter and the 5I Team

Q: I am considering buying Davis & Henderson DH for my RRIF because of its 4.89% dividend but I am weary as I see it's payout ratio is 103.51% while the industry average is 79.76%. Is there something I am overlooking? Thanks, Bill
Q: Peter; Could you update your opinion on ENF and would you add to it at these levels? Thanks.Rod
Q: EEP-N: Largest liquid oil pipeline in the US in which Enbridge is a stakeholder. It has a fairly large yield of over 7% and dividends have been slowly increasing over years. Although this co. is not high growth, would this be a good holding in a RRSP. Do you see any valuation risk or stagnant/lowered divided in the next 5 years?
Q: For the fixed income portion of my US holdings would stocks like MTGE, AGNC, NLY, HTS and CMO be appropriate. They all have high yields. Or does the downside risk on their share prices when interest rates increase make this an unwise investment plan?
If so, what would make more sense?
Thank you.

Q: Good Morning Peter,
Would it be possible for your team to recommend three or four stocks that pay high, safe, and growing dividends (at least 7%), and positive growth going forward? Or am I just spitting into the wind? In my income portfolio I already own BCE, CPG, DR, ECI, ERF, LW, STB, VSN with an average dividend payout of 8.07% (many of these stocks long-term holds since 2009). And in my wife's portfolio, she owns AQN, BNS, MBT, NFI, PKI, PPL, RSI, ZRE. We have a couple of $50,000 GIC's coming due this month that have been paying 4.35% for the past five years and need to re-deploy these funds.
Thanks!

Q: Thanks for your update on CGX. I am curious to know whether ticket sales from Events like Live From the Met, Bolshoi Ballet and National Theatre make a bottom line contribution to CGX. These performances probably raise the average ticket price but I am curious whether they are stand alone profitable as they are frequently sold out. Interested in your thoughts.
