Q: Hi Peter
I own this floating Rate Preferred share issue which pays out a dividend which is based on 70% of the prime rate, it has taken a significant hit to say the least.
Recently it was downgraded to pfd-3 (high) i imagine because of debt risk,i hope this doesn't translate into Junk.
Could you comment on this Preferred share rating and the risk associated with it.
Thanks Gord

Q: Hi Peter and Staff
I got out at $39 and missed a nice ride up. TD projects close to $50.lpng term hold if I consider price. Jump and dividends should I replace ABT, SYZ or ET or stand pat and why?

Q: 3:37 PM 5/3/2015
Hello 5i
The Thomson Reuters website says : "Notice for Canada Revenue Agency purposes: all dividends paid by Thomson Reuters Corporation are eligible dividends unless indicated otherwise".
Is Thomson Reuters a "Canadian" Company or is owning shares considered to be a "Foreign Property" and would a T1135 declaration be required?
Many thanks.... Paul K

Q: What would be your thoughts on Thomson-Reuters as they have fallen back some recently. Good dividend source. Do you feel the dividend has room to increase?

Q: Why is this stock breaking out to a new high on big volume? Is it still a good buy? Thank you.
Q: Your latest thoughts on TRI please
Q: Hi Peter and Team,
I have a full position in Thomson Reuters (TRI) which has surprisingly grown significantly in the last ~18 months (although it has pulled back somewhat lately). It is also paying about a 3.85% dividend.
On more than one occasion you’ve said you're not overly keen on TRI. Most recently, on Feb. 12/14 you said TRI “…still faces some challenges, but remains a viable blue-chip stock in the sector, with OK long term potential. Much of its fortunes depend on capital markets employment levels, which should improve with the markets.”
I am thinking of selling it and would like to replace it with one of the 5i A- or B+ rated companies that I don't already own. I have an otherwise well-balanced and diversified portfolio based entirely on the top rated and unrated companies in the 5i portfolio and other recommendations you’ve made in the past (e.g., IWO, IBB, VIG, VXUS, SLW, FNV).
Ideally I'd like to replace TRI with something that has better than “OK” prospects for growth and dividends going forward. It does not have to be in the same sector.
Would you be able to suggest which of the following top-rated 5i companies you would recommend as a replacement for TRI at this point in the market cycle?
Badger Daylighting Ltd. BAD A-
MacDonald Dettwiler MDA A-
A&W Royalties Income Fund AW.UN B+
Black Diamond BDI B+
Boston Pizza Royalties Fund BPF.UN B+
Boyd Group Income Fund BYD.UN B+
Capital Power Corp CPX B+
Davis and Henderson DH B+
Equity Financial Holdings EQI B+
First Capital Realty FCR B+
Fiera Capital Corp. FSZ B+
H & R Reit HR.UN B+
Leon's Furniture LNF B+
Mediagrif Interactive MDF B+
Tim Hortons THI B+
Thank you for your perspective.

Q: Hi Peter,
What is your opinion on TRI after the drop in the share price today? Is the dividend eligible for the Canadian dividend tax credit?

Q: A recent guest on Market Call was touting the benefits of Eikon, which he said did amazing stuff and was half the cost of the Bloomberg Terminal, like the one you use. He implied that TRI, Thomson Reuters, has finally worked out the bugs with this business service and that the stock was a buy. Would you agree and are you familiar with Eikon? TRI apparently sold 100,000 of the desktop units (and subscriptions?) in the last quarter, which sounds like a lot to me, but maybe it isn't in comparison to the Bloomberg terminals already in place. Thanks, J.

Q: I am thinking of buying Thompson Reuters "TRI" for a long term hold in my TFSA. Could I get your opinion if TRI is a buy please.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Q: Peter, your opinion please on Thomson Reuters Corp TRI. I purchased this early last year in a registered account. Yield is good but the stock price has dropped significantly and seems to be going nowhere. The company has had difficulty with the rollout of its Eikon platform, which I believe they are not having a great deal of success competing against Bloomberg. I believe they are also repositioning some of their business units through acquisitions and divestitures. Do you consider this dead money? Buy more, hold or sell? Do you have any recommendations as an alternative in this segment? Thank you.
Q: Thomson Reuters (TRI) is considered by many to be a "dividend aristocrat" meaning it has paid a dividend consistently for several years. It's stock price is tracking about 10% to 15% above its ten year low and is paying a dividend of around 4.25%. Do you believe this company is worth investing in?
