Q: Further to my previous question on ACI, as the company holds Cdn drop down pipeline assets of ALA would you generally view the dividend as more secure than ALA’s? Also, how would you compare ACI vs RNW in terms of dividend security and growth profile as both are Cdn drop down companies. Which is more attractive? Thanks.

Q: Good morning 5i Team.

I'm primarily an income investor and I'm building positions in these three names. My target is BEP.UN (5%) AQN (3%) and RNW (2%) for a total of 10%. Do you think 10% is too high for the group? Is it necessary to diversify into all three? If not, which would you pass on?

Thanks
Peter

Q: I hold the above utility stocks and can't help but notice the daily declines. Is this related to current and forecast interest rate increases, and/or something else? I appreciate that, like everyone else, you don't have a crystal ball. But is it possible that the downward trend may continue for at least a while until the cause plays itself out? Thanks as always.

Q: Because I cannot contribute new funds to my LIRA, I have a number of high-yield stocks to generate income that can be reinvested in growth. Full position in PDC for diversification and smoothing effect, half position in everything else. How safe are these utility and REITs dividends with 7-9.5 % yields? Alternative suggestions for 10 year plus strategy? (Please deduct as many credits as required)

Q: While I know BEP is a larger company, could you please compare these two in terms of debt, safety of dividend and stock price and potential problems?

What would be the effect of a 1% rise in interest rates for these and other utility companies?
Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: I have owned RNW for a couple of years now, primarily for income from its healthy dividend. Also own AQN, FTS, NPI and BEP.UN in the utilities sector. I'm still ahead on RNW by about 18% despite the recent price drop, but wonder if the stock simply has too many issues these days. This includes the suggested lack of future growth, an apparent problem in Australia, and potential issues with its parent company TA. Is it maybe time to sell?
