Q: Hello Peter and team,
I have been following the Utility Sector with interest.(Both in the stock market and my monthly bill). I see in your model income portfolio you have BEP.UN and SPB. Within the sector, could you rank the top four stocks to consider and the bottom four to ignore for now. A very short explanation would help. I am looking for long term stability and reasonable yield in a non registered account. I also see various high numbers for BEP.UN's PE Ratio. What does your research show it to be? Many thanks Paul

Q: Good day! I am looking at the cash flow for RSI (Rogers Sugar) on SEDAR for yesterdays results, and am trying to work out the payout ratio. Could you tell me what of the items would need to be adjusted from the earnings to give a "realistic" payout ratio. What do you calculate as the payout ratio? Thanks!

Q: Does it make any sense to buy 5 year GIC's as part of a balanced portfolio given that interests rates are at all time lows and rates are forecast to rise over this time frame? Thanks. Michael

Q: I read that SRV.Un and KEG.Un are royalty trusts with eligible dividends. I'm not interested in growth, just safety of income and capital. Would you recommend them for a 2.5% weighting (each) my income portfolio. Thanks.

Q: Good morning, Peter.
Re: CPX
I own Capital Power for a little growth and a good dividend, and have seen both since I bought it last year. Latest quarter's results are not finding favor with the market but is this a situation where you just sit back and ignore the short-term noise or should the stock be a candidate for sale?
Thank you and kind regards,
Geoff

Q: Hi,

Can you provide me your opinion on Chesswood (CHW). I bought it at 15.25 and it is down since then. It also pretty volatile. Is it a good company to hold in a portfolio. What kind of risks do you see in this company going forward. Also with its small market cap could it be a potential takeover candidate for someone interested in leasing business. Thanks

Q: RCI.B is down 3% today on a lowering of estimates by Credit Suisse. I'm not interested in growth, only safety of capital and income. The yield is about 4.3%. Is now a time for a 5% position? I don't have T but will buy BCE on a correction resulting in owning 5% each in BCE and T. Would a 2.5% position in each be better? How about 5% in BCE and no RCI? Thanks.
