Investment Q&A

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

Q: Could I get your opinion on selling OSF.UN (Oil Sands Fund) and replacing it with HLP.UN (Health Lease Properties). My portfolia is over 20% energy with 0% Real Estate. I only carry dividend paying stocks and these 2 have similar yield but, OSF.UN is small cap with small trading volume and moving sideways.
Thanks for the great service.

Q: Peter, I bought Dundee Real Estate several months ago at $33 before the US Feds talked of easing tapering and it nose-dived. Today it was close to $29.00. Is it worth considering buying more shares to average down, assuming that it is a reasonably safe stock or would I be better off in another reit such as H&R which appeals to me. Thanks in advance for your good advice.

Q: Do you follow SCC (Sears Canada) at all? Is this a good opportunity to get in early on a potential new REIT or is it just too speculative?

Q: Regarding the earlier question about Partners, PAR.UN my portfolio is set up for income with some growth with 4% in REITS.
Would you consider the addition of Partners as an opportunity to pick up yield with potential longer term capital appreciation once the dust clears or is there too much risk involved, either the distribution being maintained or other concerns?
If the addition has merrit would a switch from RioCan make sense or should I use new money?
Thank you for your thoughts, Brian

Q: Hello
several years ago I (like many others) was blindsided by the Harper Gov't. when they flipped on their promise of taxation on Income Trusts. I can't help but wonder about future government taxation changes to Reits, with more and more corporations spinning out their realty holdings. Would appreciate your thoughts.
Thank you

Q: On 20 Sep, you had recommended XRE as an ETF to get some real estate exposure as opposed to some specific stocks about which I had inquired. Approx a week ago a guest on BNN recommended ZRE over XRE so I was wondering why he did. Do you have any idea why he would do so? Thanks and I hope you had a great time in Germany. I did when I was 21 and spent 3 months there gratis of our gov't.

Q: Hello Peter & team,
I have followed your recommendations since inception & have done very well in a number of your positions. Thank you very much !
I am a retiree, with a 3 to 5 year time horizon, like dividends & some growth. My reit & real estate corp. holdings form 17.25% of my portfolio, & some are showing strain since the tapering debate began.- WB, NPR.UN, MRC, MKP, FCR, D.UN, DR.UN, CUF.UN, AP.UN, ACR.UN, all on the TSX.
November would be a good month for me to offset some realized capital gains.
Do you see any "glaring sells" above, or should I just hang in & hope for some sort of recovery. ( there are lots of good buys out there, ( GH, etc, etc).
Thanks in anticipation !
