Q: Hi 5i
I own GXE in a TFSA and in the midst of today's bloodbath the value of my holding is down 45% from when I bought quite some time ago. There's not an overly significant amount of money involved and I can ride it out if that's the thing to do, but I would like to minimize my losses as effectively as possible.
With that in mind, what would you recommend I do - sell, hold or buy some more at the current depressed price, and why?
Thanks 5i, I look forward to your thoughts.
Peter

Q: Hello 5i team,
I have held the US stock of Brookfield Renewable Corp for a bit over 2 years. For that same time, BEPC has been on a steady but very slow decline (-23%).

Back when it was a REIT (BEP.UN.TO) I did very well.

In your opinion what are the prospects of this slow decline turning around? I wanted to add more because I still believe in the quality of the company (part of my utilities sector). Plus they have steadily increased their dividend ~5% every year since it's inception (July 2020).

Thank You,
Andrew

Q: Hi 5i,

I see in a recent Canadian Press article that Canada will need to build more green electricity generation and transmission to support the future net-zero emissions economy.

Are there any companies in 1). generation (nothing nuclear please) or 2). transmission related to this that would be good investments?

We already own most of the green utilities such as BEP, AQN, INE, BLX, NPI, NEE as well as other non-utilities such as HPS-A, PWR, ENPH.

Also, with regards to others countries also moving towards electrification, are there other companies outside of Canada that you would recommend?

Thank you 5i!

Q: With the Coastal Gas Link pipeline getting close to completion. Which energy companies would be prime beneficiaries?

On a related energy question, when is the Trans Mountain pipeline expected to be completed and are there any energy companies who stand to benefit the most? Will this pipeline help close the gap in price with WTI?

Q: Hi, We have held a full position in ENB for many years and added a 1.5% position in TRP about a year ago, at $60-61, in a Non-Regd account, for Income/Growth.The investment, however, has been a huge disappointment. The endless cost issues with Coastal Link pipeline project and no clear timeline is now widely known. Are you aware of any catalysts in the near future ?

Over numerous comments, you have clearly indicated your preference for ENB and there being no particular need to own both companies. Based on the current scenario, would you support moving out of TRP ? Now or wait for the quarterly results ?

And, if we decide to sell the whole position ( and at least book the capital loss), what would be a reasonable price level you would use?

Thank You
