Q: For ALA, AQN, DIV, DR, ENB, PRV.UN, what is the payout ratio for each of these companies? Is payout ratio a valuable measure of dividend sustainability? Can payout ratio about 100% be maintained? thanks

Q: I am thinking of adding these for income and noticed that none are listed in your Income Portfolio. How would rate these with respect to debt level, safety of dividend, P/E, potential growth, other metrics and management team? This is a long term hold and I can stand a fair bit of volitility.
Thanks for your excellent advice.

Q: Further to a question asked by Clarence this morning I too am reaching for dividend income. Would you consider any of these high dividend paying companies an unacceptable risk today? I guess in terms of capital loss or dividend cuts? Understanding that obviously things could change in the future.
Artis 7.68%
Crius Energy 9.38%
Diversified Royalty 6.37%
Dream Global 6.66%
Enbridge Income 7.08%

Q: My question is on diversification for my kids. With smaller amounts of money I find it a struggle. My daughters are 4 and 6. In one RESP there is 155 shares of DR. In the other RESP there is 155 shares of CRT.UN I also have a TFSA account where I keep there money from birthdays Christmas etc. There they have 543 shares of DIV and 90 shares of KWH.UN Cash for them is starting to add up again for them. Thinking very long term do I add a new position for them or sell all and start fresh? What do you recommend?

Thanks Jimmy

Q: "Diversified Royalty Corp. Announces $50 Million Bought Deal Offering Of 5.25% Convertible Unsecured Subordinated Debentures......DIV intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes including to fund potential future acquisitions and working capital."
Is this good, bad or indifferent? Not sure how to react... Could you provide clarity?

Thank you

Q: Good Morning,

I would like to add a couple of mid cap growth names to my portfolio for a 2 - 3 year hold. Without regard to sector how would you rank ECN, HWD, MX, CJT, DIV and ZCL? Any commentary is most welcome.

Thanks as always,

Dennis
