Investment Q&A

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

Q: I just heard about AQNU. I gather that the yield is 7.87% until June 15, 2024 when a contract to purchase AQN stock is exercised according to a preset formula. What exactly is AQNU - a hybrid? Can this type of instrument be held in an RRSP?

If I'd like to end up with some AQN eventually, why wouldn't I buy AQNU now, get the 7.87% yield, and then on June 15, 2024 receive AQN stock?
Thank you for all your insightful answers over the years - I've learned so much!

Q: You mentioned in a response that generally people are shifting out of banks to move into energy and materials. Is it wrong to chase these areas which have already run so far? About a year and a half ago you had recommended BEP and I know you still like it. For a long term investor if you had to choose between BEP and CNQ which would you choose? To me BEP seems to represent more value as renewables have suffered but CNQ clearly has really good momentum. I have bought oil stocks before at all time highs and it never worked out too well. My issue is never knowing when to sell. Looking forward to your thoughts!

Q: This stock turned up on a analysts portfolio of 10 defensive stocks. The stocks performance over the past year looks good and although not at an all time high, appears to be at a 5 year high and pays a dividend as well. Your thoughts, please and do you have any other preferred US stocks in this sector. Could you also suggest one or two of your top CND natural gas picks.

Q: For a very un-promotional Company, EcoSynthetix stock continues to climb now trading at 10-year highs with increasing daily volumes. With revenues rising, it seems the potential for their green adhesive products is real given they have commercial accounts with major companies. Your thoughts?
