Q: Hi, I'm holding onto XBB as you always hear that a diversified portfolio should include bonds. I'm down 5% and thinking that XBB could continue down once interest rates rise. Would you buy, sell, or hold XBB today? Thank you.

Q: Hi 5I
I was just reading an article regarding how Kinder Morgan may be overstating their cash flow, and hence their stock could be overvalued due to not allocating enough money to maintenance on their pipes, which got me wondering about companies like Brookfield Renewable Energy and how their costs could skyrocket from natural weather disasters.
Thanks Gord

Q: Approximately 15% of my holdings are in convertible debentures (eg HR.DB.D) purchased some time ago with interest payments just under 6%. With one small exception these dropped to around their purchase point of 100 with the recent interest rate scare. These were purchased by my full service broker before we parted ways. I have now found that they are extremely illiquid and may be hard to sell at the price shown on my screen as the last sale may have been weeks ago. They form about 50% of what I consider the fixed income part of my assets but their price actually tracks the common because of the convertible nature. Am I right to consider them fixed income and do you have an opinion on the wisdom of keeping them?
Q: A question regarding portfolio management. When you talk about weightings, do you mean the original amount that was invested? I hold BYD in my TFSA along with 12 other stocks, it is now up 130% so should I be talking some profit and redistribute to adjust the weighting (a nice dilemma, thank you)!
I have the same situation with AYA which is up 90%, although it is not in my TFSA.
If I should be making some adjustments, any thoughts on which stocks to add?
Thank you

Q: Hello Peter & Co. RE: Superior Plus SPB-T
Could I get a fresh look at SPB Please.
I see over the last 22 days it has a slight up trend and the MACD is currently providing a weak bullish signal.
Would you know the percentage of cash flow?
How are they managing with their debt level?
I have been waiting for a good entry point for SPB to add to my long term income portfolio.
As always , Thank you for your Great Service.

Q: Hi what do you think of fp or sir royalty fo long term income holds
Q: My question is on Limited Partnerships. I only one one and I am interested in taking a postilion in another. The one I own is Suburban Propane Partners LP SPH. It pays a good dividend but I am taxed a non resident 35% withholding tax on it. Does all US traded LPs charged that withholding tax on dividends for Canadian residents? I would like to take a position in BEP.UN and is wondering if there will be a withholding tax on the dividend since it is a Limited partnership? I am assuming any LPs on the TSE will not have a withholding tax for Canadians. Can you confirm or correct me?
Q: XBB has dropped and has been a good long term hold for fixed income. Is this a good entry point to buy this ETF? If not, could you please recommend an alternative ETF that would perform better when interest rates rise?
Q: IPL: announced bought deal 11M+ shares @$25.15 ea yesterday to pay bank debt and finance their expansion at oil sands site? I assume the interest savings on the retired bank debt will be offset by the increased dividend payments to the holders of the additional shares? Have you worked the numbers yet and have any idea on the impact of this transaction on the balance sheet and increasing dividends going fwd? Is this stock a buy now or do you see a bit more downside-CIBC has a $28.00 target?
Q: Hi, team: Is there any cause for concern regarding Interpipe's (IPL) recent common share offering?

Q: Hello 5i team. I've noted that a number of typical 'dividend stocks' seem to have haled their downward momentum and are up the past few days ... e.g., AQN, BCE, CPX, NPI. Is it premature to buy back into some of these? Also noted that 10-year treasuries have pulled back from their flirtation with the 3.00% level and were at 2.78% today.
Keep up the excellent work you're doing for your subscribers.

Q: Used to own KBL and sold it way too soon. Am looking at getting back in but I am wondering what the prospects are for dividend growth. There has been next to no increase in the dividend in the past 5 years. While the share price has shown good growth the past few years is there much upside left.
Q: Altagas (ALA) - is this a good entry point? Tx
