Q: Hi 5i, I currently have preferred shares in 13 different companies. I would like to diversify as they are all in finance, utilities, energy and Telecom. Can you name three companies to put into my RRSP that are US based with preferred shares that are solid. I'm looking for 5y resets or perpetual, thanks.

Q: I bought this stock a few years back, it pays a consistent dividend but little value add outside of that. I am thinking of selling and moving into other US pharma with better growth upside. What are your thoughts and a couple of recommendations for alternatives.
As always thanks for your advise.

Q: In my last question I did not have the correct symbol for Sentinel One. (question picked up on Sherrit, which I don't own) Please compare the three cybersecurity companies in terms of hold for recovery, sell for tax loss. I am holding all three at a loss.

Q: There has been very little press on the other ((rather large ) bank default, that of Signature Bank.
Did this bank have similar issues as SVB in terms of deposits and composition ? Wondering how many other smaller ( relatively ) banks could be in similar situations. Thanks Derek

Q: What does this statement mean and how does it affect shareholders?

"Finally, investors' fears are becoming reality because Rivian has just announced a bond issue aimed at raising $1.3 billion. The company intends to sell convertible notes, or bonds that can be paid back with cash, stock or a mix of the two, according to a press release.

Investors buying these notes will also have the option to buy additional notes worth up to $200 million, according to a statement dated March 6 2023"

Q: Hello Peter,

How would you trade the collapse of SVB? Banks and Financial companies are taking a hit. Is it time to buy? If yes, what would you prefer- BAC,MS, BX? Or none of the above.
Do you think there is a contagion risk here?
Regards.

Q: Hi, what do you think of these names to take advantage of the pullback in the financial sector due to the SVB bust? Or would you just stick with JPM and BAC? I realize that not all these banks are exactly comparable. Thanks,

Q: Hi there, with the failure of SVB, many regionals have also been sold off, possibly unjustifiably. Do you see any current opportunities in the space that seem like good buys? SCHW comes to mind but wondering your thoughts or if there are any others that look good here.
