Investment Q&A

Q: What would your top three utility picks be today for income and some capital appreciation?

Q: Down 15% on EIF in a cash account. Trying to decide if I should sell for a tax loss and rebuy in the new year...or if the stock will rally in the run up to Christmas. Your thoughts please on whether I should sell/rebuy and - if so - what you would use as a proxy. Thank you.

Q: Hi there,

Any thoughts on when DFN might resume its’ distribution?
If and when interest rates decline do you see a return to a higher price?

Thanks.

Q: Curious about yields. It feels like the yield on ETF XHY remains around the level it was several years ago (~6%) despite other stocks yielding much higher returns. Shouldn't those ETF holdings (high yield corporate bonds) be ticking upwards too which should drive the ETF yield higher? Maybe there is a time-delay as they have to reset?

So with various stock yields as high as they are I would like to try to benefit from the yields AND set up for capital gains on the same stocks that *should* pop as interest rates normalize and fall a bit. What are 3 CAD and 3 USD stocks that fit the bill? (High current yield AND good likelihood to strong share price increase in 1-3 years.) And where would ENS fit relative to those suggestions?

Q: For a "safe dividend stocks " strategy perspective, I noticed that those 2 stocks in my portfolio have reached a relatively low point (no loss),is it then time to 1)"average up " , 2)to wait and see,or3) eventually to sell in case of a new situation?

Q: hi, can I get your current thoughts on CSW.A at this time. do you suspect it could start to move up in price with small caps soon? or are people not drinking their "spirits" so much anymore ( large capital depreciation over time ). do you have any other suggestions in the consumer defensive sector (cdn or us) with a good sized dividend and a better growth profile? cheers, chris
