Investment Q&A

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

Q: Can you comment of Boardwalk’s most recent quarter? I own Boardwalk (10% gain) and Interrent (75% gain). After starting their intention to diversify away from Alberta and Saskatchewan over a year ago, little progress has been achieved by Boardwalk. I’m debating selling Boardwalk and putting the proceeds to work in Interrent on a pullback since I already own a position. Would you be ok with this move? I would maintain the same sector weighting (10%) but it would be all in one stock and some ETFs vs 2 stocks.

Thanks,
Jason

Q: Hi 5iR, InterRent real estate appears to me to be a low profile property owner and developer with about 8000 suite located in Ontario and Quebec. The stock price is currently $17.00 and the company yields a very modest, 1.8%. If I had bought IIP in 2015, when it traded at $5.00 I would now be up 240%. The 5yr graph is any investors dream, slow and steady, constantly moving up with almost zero volatility. I like what I see and read about this company.
What am I missing here??? Thanks Team. Cheers, Chris

Q: I would like to have a good REIT stock. Would you recommend buying BPY? Or do you prefer other REIT stocks?
I read the company did some buy backs last quarter. Do you see the stock bouncing back in 2020?

Thank you

Q: Hi,
I'm looking for income and hopefully a little growth as well. I currently own GRT/UN.TO, CAR/UN.TO and have some of DRG/UN.TO from before the buyout. Would you be able to rate these choices in order of preference? What % weight would you recommend for this sector at the moment, and do you foresee that weighting being changed as we head into Q1 next year? These will be held in a cash account, so should I be considering the potential tax implications? Deduct as many credits as you need. Thanks for all your hard work,
Dawn

Q: Hi 5i, I do not have any real estate exposure in my portfolio or own any real estate assets. My portfolio includes a range of stocks such as SHOP, MELI, PYPL, SQ as well as BNS, DIS and BIP:UN, CNR as some examples.
It seems like there could be a lot of future growth in Atlantic Canada and I am wondering about KMP.UN. I have a small portfolio so would appreciate any suggestions you have for some real estate exposure with growth. Thank you!
