Q: What is your opinion on convertable debentures? They do pay higher rates and could do well if the stock price does well. I am intrested in the CD's that are issued by FCR.

Q: Hello Peter
First I want to thank you for your excellent information, particularly on the SSL warrants. What a great research service.
I am looking for a Midstream oil/gas business because these are less dependent on oil prices and mainly just collect tariffs, or possibly a pipeline, and I checked your comments on each of the ones listed below.
I am retired and looking for good sustainable dividends over 3.5% and enough growth to offset inflation.
This is the data I get from my TD Waterhouse site:
Earn$ Div% Yield% P/E POR*
Parkland PKI 1.14 1.04 5.70 16.0 91%
Transcan TRP 2.26 1.84 3.91 20.85 81
Shawcor SCL 4.29 0.50 1.24 9.40 12
Keyera KEY 2.17 2.40 3.89 28.45 110
Gibson GEI 0.97 1.10 4.14 27.39 113
EnbridgeENB 1.09 1.26 2.84 40.62 116
Altagas ALA 1.37 1.53 3.84 29.08 117
Pembina PPL 1.12 1.68 4.88 30.71 150
CanexusCUS 0.22 0.56 9.31 26.73 248
InterPipeIPL -0.29 1.29 5.00 0 infinite
* Payout Ratio [POR] calculated by me.
Of these. the only one I own now is PKI... good dividend, lowest P/E Ratio, and reasonable payout ratio and you rate it "B".
1. Why do you favour PPL with it's 150% POR? You rate PPL and ALA well above TRP though it has a good dividend and 81% POR?
2. I don't understand why you say IPL, with negative earnings and an infinite POR, is a "favourite", though weak.
3. Only KEY, GEI, and ALA have decent dividends and PORs a little over 110% but maybe these PORs are considered ok because of large dividend reinvestment plans.
4. So my question is: What one or two should I choose, or do you have a better suggestion, and are you not worried about the high P/E ratios?
Many thanks........... Paul

Q: I presently own Pembina Pipeline for the last several years for dividend & growth. I see Trans Canada has been in the news a lot lately and was wondering if this is a good entry point going forward for the same reason I have owned Pembina? Thank you for your valued opinion.

Q: Received a voluntary purchase offer for all outstanding RDZ.DB (6.75 due dec. 31/17) at $1010.00. Capstone Infrastructures recently took over RDZ. Should I tender or hold. The 90% rule could come into play.
Thanks Team as always

Q: Peter and crew, Our holdings include AD/ACQ/BPF/FSZ/CSU/PKI/PPL/STN/WEF/BEP/ESL/HR.UN/IPL/KBL/TRP/CFN/HCG/MG. We are 8-10 years from retirement so don't need income now. However I've read a lot recently that says dividend growers are very important vs. dividend payers if you don't need income (we don't). Do our holdings in your view contain some good candidates for the 'dividend grower' category? Thanks, Bill Y.
Q: I read RSI is doing a share buy back. In your opinion is this equal to a dividend increase? Will the share price reflect the concentration?
Q: Would love to hear your thoughts on Transalta (TA). Attractive yield and potentially signalling a technical breakout. Would this be a good entry point?

Q:
I bought 1000 shares of WB 2 weeks ago and it is already up 10%. I realise that this is a seasonal stock but it it too late to add to it? And when should I think of selling, or should I just hold for the dividends.

Q: CHW was a fair bit cheaper in October-keeps going up and I hate chasing a stock. National Bank has liked this one for many years and I have been watching waiting for a hiccup to get it cheaper-but, no deal. I would think > interest rates (long bond related when fed. starts tapering it's buying) will hurt this stock? Your comments please.
Q: Can you please tell me more about BEP-UN and what your outlook is for this stock? Do you still think it deserves an A rating?

Q: Hello Peter,
I recently added a half position of Boston Pizza to my 20 stock portfolio. Although I’m in for the long term BPF.UN has dropped by 9% since.
Has something changed it this company that I should re-evaluate and sell or is this market related? Thanks for your great service. Ronald
