Q: Any reason for the relentless sell down of the BIPC.UN/BIPC combo today (and of late as well)? Looks like some fund is either accumulating, or making a play for this Brookfield unit. You opinion?

Q: I am considering adding to a number of these Income Generating names. I know you are generally not a fan of averaging down but is there an entry point that you would add to these names in the current market.

Thanks

Q: I currently own full positions in BEP.UN and BIP.UN in a diversified dividend income portfolio. I have considered buying BN as well, but am not sure that increasing my Brookfield concentration is warranted. What are your views?
Thanks.

Q: Would like to take a new long term position in either BIP or BEP.

Can you provide earnings and revenue estimates for both?

Do you have a preference?

Q: Hi Folks,
In my RRSP account - thinking of selling my 2% position in AQN. I am currently down 33%. I also have FTS and BIP.UN as my Utility holdings with a 11% weighing for these two.
With that money I would buy a 3% position in APPLE. I also have MSFT and CSU as my holdings in the Tech sector. I currently have a 10% weighing in the Tech sector. ( I also have a 4% position in GOOG not included in the Tech sector weighing)
I have a fairly diversified conservative portfolio.
May I have your opinion as to whether this would be a wise move to make at this time. I am looking at a 10 year time frame and looking to add some "zip" to my portfolio.
Thanks

The key difference between is that BIPC's dividend qualifies for the Canadian dividend tax credit, whereas BIP. UN's distribution consists largely of foreign dividend and interest income, Canadian interest and return of capital

Q: Any reason why BIP.UN's unit price today took such a big dip?

I noticed three fairly large trades, two today (311.4K at 9:30am and 133.6K at 3:30pm) and also one yesterday before closing (84.5k at 3:30pm). Some major holder(s) decided to exit, or what's the story? Today's total volume at 1.25million shares is also well over the daily average of 250K.

Know anything that happened? Thanks.

Q: What are your analysis of the results published yesterday? The market seams to have liked them (+3.56%) but I fail to see what is the big hoopla on what appears to me simply ok results.
