Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: In a report dated 4 Jan , RBC Capital says “… Element Fleet is our best idea, and we believe it should be a core holding in any portfolio, as we think the stock offers a blend of growth, defensive attributes and multiple potential positive catalysts.”
I just don't see it and feel I must be missing a LOT. I find EFN just OK. I don’t follow Canadian markets much so checked other reports, and skimmed several analyses. Almost all other analysts seem to be lukewarm on EFN. RBC includes well qualified, experienced, and generally trustworthy fellows.
Please comment on EFN with a focus on future growth. Is its business model robust enough to beat competition?

Q: I'm aware of your opinion ("agnostic") on Power Corp. Over the last 5 years POW has raised the dividend at a CAGR of 11-12%. Assuming the dividend continues to rise AND assuming no significant increase in fixed income rates for a few years, would not POW stock price rise similarly as investors look to safe, stable equities for income? Result could be combination of rising income and appreciating stock value.

Thanks - IslandJohn

Q: Despite central banks committing to not raising short term rates in the near term, 10 year yields have gone up a fair amount lately. Is it true that with the 10 year yield rising on its own, commercial banks will begin to raise their mortgage and other lending rates? And if so, why? Thanks.

Q: I am fairly new to DIY investing and 5i. Have really appreciated the knowledge I am accumulating from your subscription. I am overweight in financials and would like to reduce. Currently own MKP (7%) and AI (2%). Could you give me your thoughts on these companies and rank them in order of “dividend safety/growth”? Thank you.
