Investment Q&A

Q: Why has BIPC dropped almost 10% since the announcement that Brookfield will probably win the Inter Pipeline sweapstakes? Is this a temporary drop or is it expected to last?

Q: Hi, I’m missing the dividend on this stock, I guess it will not return soon? Could you rate it on a scale of one(worst) to ten.
I’m also selling for a capital loss , and possibly buy back. Would you sell now or wait till Nov. Dec. tax loss season? Would you even buy back as it seems to be a laggard compared to TOU.
Thanks

Q: I assume Bipc is dropping to the $80 level because of the 0.25 of a share or $20 IPL offer. Does the price usually head back up to where it was pre-acquisition or nor? What sort of time frame?

Q: My Material's weighting is a little light and I am mulling over a purchase of LGO to balance out some gold stocks. I notice LGO's stock spiked in 2019 and then collapsed. Would you advise me that the spike, collapse and now climb-out is just a typical roller coaster Material company ride - ie the ride comes with the territory? In addition I am uncertain how much faith I should put into LGO's newish battery technology. "Green Technology" also seems to be another version of a roller coaster ride. Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.

Q: Now that the IPL,PPL combo is off the table which of the three has the best prospects going forward? Thanks Ron

Q: Hi
I also hold BEP/UN and AQN. Being that BEPC is at break even now, I am wondering if I should hold it, or switch it out for BLX if BLX has more potential for growth over time. Would you have a different suggestion than BLX? Your thoughts on this would be appreciated!
Thanks for all your hard work - Dawn

Q: Hi 5i,
I'm lucky yo be up 100% in KEY over the past little more than a year in a registered account and based on my buy in price I receive a healthy 12% annual dividend. Although I know it can be thought of as a utility I realize KEY is more properly classed as an Energy stock and I also hold significant weight in ENB and TOU, so paring down Utility/Energy weight would be OK. I'm wondering if KEY's future growth and dividend prospects are strong enough that I ought to just hold on to all of this (so far) very good thing, or if it might be both prudent and rewarding to sell 1/2 and buy into GSY with the proceeds. I hold both CM and BNS but in reasonable weights and mainly for dividend growth, and I wonder if looking for some torque from GSY with the profit I've made in KEY makes sense.
I'd sure appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter
Mullen group results looked good except for the drop in net income due to foreign exchange. There was also an analyst upgrade. Still, the stock dropped by over 4% today. Can you tell why the stock dropped today?

Q: I hold both these stocks in a RRSP account. Is this a duplication. I like the yield on both . Thoughts

Q: Is there a simple formula I can use to calculate what price an oil company should be trading at. I would like to use it for Parex and a couple others.

Thanks Steve

Q: Just looking for an opinion,

In what scenario does this ever get back to it's glory days before the oil fallout years ago? I have owned this for sometime in a TFSA and wondering if I should just keep holding due to not being able to harvest tax loss or take the loss and move the proceeds into something else in a different industry where over time I could recoup the loss.

Q: Opinion

Q: Hello 5i Team

BIPC in their July 19 press release quoted the Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) report that recommends IPL shareholders vote for the BIPC offer to purchase IPL.

Is the ISS report available to general investors? From what I read on ISS website (buried under the Press Center page), ISS reports are not made public, nor does ISS issue press releases.

Is BIPC being disingenuous in touting the ISS report, when small investors are not able to review the ISS report and make their own decision on whether to accept the recommendations of ISS and vote on the BIPC takeover?

Thank you

Q: Your thoughts on the prospect for good returns on this stock from current levels?

Q: Hi 5i,

Thank you for the great work. Would you be able to share perspective on Denbury Inc (DEN)? The company jumped out for the correlation to both green themes, and energy prices.

Thank you in advance!

Q: good day. I purchased MX about 6 months ago. It represents 1.5% of my portfolio. It's dropped about 19% since purchasing. I'd like your advice on whether I should add, hold or sell this position in favour of another stock in the sector. if the answer is sell, what could I replace it with? Thanks

Q: At the time of writing this, BEPC is trading at $50.66 and BEP.UN at $47.49.......their corresponding 52 week highs are $80.30 and $63.39 which means that BEPC is 58.5% off its high and BEP.UN is 33.5% off its market high. First blush would suggest that BEPC may have a much greater upside from here but that of course relies entirely on what the market determines is a fair premium for BEPC. Currently that premium has dropped to 6.7% . Do you feel that this is too low, too high or just about right??

Q: Hello 5i Team,

If interest rates were too rise, how would you rank these pipeline companies in regards to their debt levels and their potential future growth.

I appreciate you response as all ways.
