Q: Hi,
The BCE dividend is presently at almost 9%.
Would it be a smart move to buy it just for the dividend? The thing is I don’t want to lose capital that offsets the dividend either.
Knowing no one can predict future company actions, do you think they will cut their dividend?
Do you see the stock price drop if they don’t raise their dividend in February?
Where do you see BCE stock price in 5 to 10 years? Does it at least stay flat?
Thanks

Q: Hi I asked this question last week and think it may have slipped through.
I am down 6% on ATD. I am thinking of selling to claim the capital loss but concerned of it popping back up in the short term. Where do you see it going from here? Would you sell and buy back after 30 days or move to something else? What other top 5 CDN or US stock would you consider to replace it in the same sector for a 5 year hold period. Thanks

Q: Hi,

Do you think that the Growth Portfolio is poised to outperform the balanced portfolio moving forward? You've mentioned in other threads that small caps have underperformed in the past 5 years; is that compared to large caps, or is that compared to an index?

Also, when comparing both portfolios to American ETFs such as VFV, they both seem to underperform. Which portfolio would you recommend for a long-term 40-year hold in a TFSA to maximize returns? Or would you recommend a different investment into an American fund to maximize returns over that same time horizon?

I like the strategy of investing in small-cap stocks for higher growth but also don't want to disregard the balanced portfolio if you believe that small-caps will continue to underperform moving forward.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts
