Q: I invested in Blackstone in early 2018. It's had a fairly good run up since then. At the time it seemed to have a bright future, offered a reasonable dividend, and provided diversification through their investments in private equity which I had no exposure to.
How do you feel about it now? Worth holding onto for the same reasons?

Q: I have done very well with my Blackstone holding in recent months, having bought it in the high-20s. I still think there is upside to the mid-40s, but toying with the idea of taking some profit (maybe selling 30-50%) and buy Boeing with the proceeds. I think Boeing will figure out the 737, and continue to think it is a worthwhile addition as a core US$ large cap holding. Would be curious to hear your views on both names at this stage. Thank you.

Q: One of my largest holdings in my RRSP is Blackstone L.P. Today they announced they are converting to a Corporate structure as at 7.1.19. It appears the market likes it. What effect will this have on the dividends (ie: yield & taxes), the SP now and going forward in your estimation? Should I buy more (to a reasonable % of course), sell or hold?

Q: Looking at adding a 2% position of Blackstone (BX) to my RRSP Portfolio. Started following the company in October and has since dropped 25% - close to it's 52 week low. Dividend is now at 8% - seems to fluctuate. Is it okay to buy at this time and is the dividend safe.

Q: I made an investment in Blackstone some time ago as a source of fairly high and reasonably secure income. It also offered me diversification into private equity and additional investment in the US.
It's now had a significant move up and I'm inclined to "stay the course" for the reasons given. While I understand that you don't concentrate on US investments I would still appreciate your current opinion on this one.

Q: Hi 5I,
How would a small investor get in to Private equities. This only seems possible for High Net Worth Clients. Is there good Publicly traded company's or ETF's that focus on Private equities. Is this a type of asset class that is recommended to diversify your portofolio.
Thank you
