Q: Tax loss versus growth considerations question. Holding ENB for several years and still below water. Have held PPL for a couple of years prior to recent meltdown and recently decided to sell PPL to realize tax loss using TRP as proxy for next several weeks until 30 day period has expired. Looking at your recent answers to questions on these 3 pipeline operators (I only need two, maybe one) and considering TRP focus on a friendlier fossil fuel firmament USA got me to thinking that maybe I should just hang on to TRP despite Keystone and Crooked Joe threats rather than going back to PPL after 30 day period is up... In your view which of the 3 companies have the better growth prospects in USA space given all three are down in this negative fossil fuel energy space? Portfolio is growth/income focused tilted mostly to equities. Retired but do not depend on portfolio income.

Q: I've owned both these for over 11 years now and have been very happy with net returns (dividend compounding + capital). Not overweight at all: 1300 shares of each - added to over the years on weakness. My concern is the hysteria over climate change and governments actions and potential actions that have hurt O & G companies. I believe that both these companies have large investments in utility businesses and plans to expand that part of their business. Q: should I continue to hold them, add to ENB (price low), or leave my positions alone.

Q: I'm interested to hear your feedback about the growth potential (and risk) of the renewable energy theme. What stocks would you recommend, and for how long of a hold?
TIA!

Q: If my first objective is capital appreciation, how would you rank these three? Second question, my perception is that FTS isn't as "renewable" compared to BEP and AQN. How would you compare FTS to the other two in this regard?
Thanks.

Q: I purchased BEP.UN on July 30, 2020. On that day, the CFRA report available through my bank's investorline site had it down as a 'hold'. Then, the next day (July 31st ), CFRA had it down as a 'buy' and then on Aug 2nd as a 'sell'. I usually sell when CFRA advises to sell. My questions are:
1) How can CFRA ratings change this quickly?
2) How reliable are CFRAs ratings?
3) Should I sell?
Thanks for your help
