Q: Ernie's May 22 question on TDB621 Mortgage Fund had me investigate the numbers: 12 month return with risk 1.36/current yield 2.1/MER 1.82. A well kept secret at TD is their ISA-Investment Savings Account- TDB8150 currently paying 1.25% with no risk. There is no info online about it, you have to call and ask, but you can buy and sell it online min $1000, the only catch is it takes 1 to 2 days notice to buy and sell but it is guaranteed. I use it in cash and registered accounts. The US$ TDB 8152 pays 0.2%.

Q: WMB NYSE-what do think about me buying this one for my USD portfolio? I do not own any CDN equivalents as they look very expensive. They plan on > dividend by 20% ea over the next 3 years. They have bought two complimentary companies recently as well which should increase cash flow etc. However metrics looks awful: very high debt, high Payout ratio etc.

Q: I am a long term investor looking for div growth with some capital appreciation. I took a position a few years ago in ZWU for the high yield. The yield has been decreasing and price is range bound. It is now at the high end of the range and am considering selling and taking a position in INE which looks to have some good growth (both capital and Div) in its future with new projects in the works. Your thoughts!

Q: my question is regarding Altagas (ALA-T). i purchased it for a core position in my son's account at about $25 and needless to say i'm very happy about the results. the way i understand things is that substantial "ebitda" should occur in the next several years.some of their contracts are very lucrative, long term and inflation protected.i guess management performance will be key to ensure these projects are properly executed . another concern i have is "when" interest rates do rise (and i realize that may several years away), would't a stock like ALA would get lambasted in that environment ? so finally, i'm thinking of buying more, what are your likes and dislikes about this stock. thanx norm

At the time I thought the purchase was (iffy) but did so on the basis that 5 insiders had bought a total o 118,272 shares at prices ranging between $6.78 t0 $8.49 during February and March. I am down on my investment and do you think I should sell or hold on? Thanks, Bill

Q: Hi Peter I'm confused. I own IPL.UN I'm up 112% on my investment and my dividend return is 10%. I know you like this pipeline , so here's the question. If I make 10% on my money now
and a possibility of an annual increase of 5% dividend growth and maybe 5% stock price growth why should I sell to keep my balance of approx. 5% average investment in any one stock. My IPL.UN works out to 8% of my portfolio now, but I believe I own a good solid investment and I'm a long term investor.

Q: Hello and Good Day Everyone

I wanted to ask about AFN. The stock has been sliding for a bit and I did not see anything too grievous in the latests results. Is there something else that I am missing? This is a small half position for me that I am using to help out with yield bought in the low 32s.

Much appreciated in advance and please keep up the excellent work!
