Investment Q&A

Q: Looking for dividends (monthly would be superb). Any US stock with a 4-5% dividend that you would recommend for long term hold (5 years)? Appreciate all your great suggestions!

Q: Telecomm seems to be performing well, relatively speaking. How would you rank these telecoms for growth, dividend safety and inflation-resistance, in general? Are there other telecoms you prefer? THANKS!

Q: AW.UN
AQN
POW
ENB
EIF

I am looking for your recommendations on good dividend paying stocks. Stocks which have come under pressure due to market conditions. Stocks that are low risk and do not have high debt. I am mostly interest in income stocks but would also like a stock that would give me some capital gains. I have listed these and would appreciate rating these. Please also provide me with any other tickers you feel would fit my needs here which I may not have thought about.

Thank you.

Q: Hi, I would appreciate if you can recommend some dividend paying companies with strong balance sheet, steady dividend increase and have not cut dividend in past. I am looking for names which have sold with general market and are at attractive valuations.
Thanks.

Q: Good Morning. I am selling off some of my more volatile US tech stocks in my RRIF and am looking to redeploy the proceeds into US stable Dividend payors. Can you please suggest 5 or 6 US Dividend stocks ( other than US Tech) to look at? Thanks

Q: Am thinking of selling my VZ shares to buy GOOG shares, so as to possibly participate in a GOOG stock increase when the stocks splits 20 for 1 in July. Of the 2 companies which does 5iR think has the better prospects for greater future growth and a brief explanation as to why. Thanks … Cal

Q: Would you say Telus and Verizon offer comparable services? Which would you choose for a "relatively safe" play in our present market and which do you think has the best. chance at growth going forward?

Q: Looking to purchase a US dividend stock with a good dividend and room to grow. I have listed them in my order of preference. What are your preferences and why? I do not have any US stocks in these 3 areas.
Thank you for your excellent guidance and expertise.

Q: Hi,
I am low on energy and pipelines, as ENB.TO is my only holding in this sector. Most of the available cash I have on hand is in a US dollar RSP account, which I do not have to convert to a RIF for another 4 years. I've listed some stocks that have my attention, and wonder if it is reasonable to purchase now, as they're mostly at new 52 week highs, except OGS and VZ. Do you think these will still have room for further gains, or am I essentially too late and taking a risk these will roll over quickly as we inch closer to a US recession? Are there others you would prefer that aren't listed and any of the above that would be higher risk in this market environment? Take the appropriate points for the multiple questions. Thanks for you continued valuable insight!

Q: Hi,

Have some cash to put to work. What would be in your top 5-10 CDN and US stocks that fit the descriptions below. Can be value or growth. Long term investor. Thanks!

“stocks with fair valuations that are at great price points and have taken a hit during this market volatility”

“high-quality stocks with sustainable growth, solid valuation frameworks, robust profits, positive earnings revisions, and strong momentum compared to peers.”

“wonderful company at a fair price”

“Bargains are the holy grail of the true stock picker. We see the latest correction not as a disaster, but as an opportunity to acquire more shares at low prices. This is how great fortunes are made over time,”

Q: With a cash balance in a USD non-registered account, I would like to add a U. S. stock paying at least a 4% dividend. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Q: Please provide your top 5 CDN and 5 US value stocks.

Q: I have some extra USD money from a small US pension that is used for going to Florida in the winters. Since we have not gone in the last two years, I would like to put some of it in our TFSA. My questions are, if I buy say TD on the NY stock exchange would the dividend in US dollars be subject to 15% withholding tax. Could you please give me several companies I could buy into if this is true. Could you also give me several US companies or ETF's that would give me a dividend and hopefully growth for a long term hold. Thank you for all the help I get for being a member. Gary

Q: For my unregistered account I am looking for your top 5 dividend stocks in Canada and 5 top US dividend stocks if purchased today. Understand that US stocks will be subject to withholding but expect the growth to compensate. Thank you and Happy New Year.

Q: How do you see the airline industry objections to the rollout of 5G by companies like Verizon affecting VZ's stock? Also, how is it possible to invest what sounds like so far billions to just now get to this potential non-starter? Why wasn't this 5g conflict with aircraft uncovered by the telcos in early days? Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i Research Team
Looking forward to next year 2022, what strategy would you recommend with the likelihood of higher interest rates.Which area of the market are going to perform better and going to be hit hard. An example of a few stocks that you may recommend that should perform well next year.
I would like to thank everyone on the 5i research team for great advice and wishing you and your family a Happy and blessed Holiday Season.

Q: I'm in the process of rebuilding my portfolio for 2022. It would be helpful if you could share with me a list of both Canadian and American companies that meet the following criteria:
1. They are some of your favourite companies from a fundamental perspective
2. They are currently buying back their own shares.
3. They offer a decent dividend.
4. They run businesses that offer good growth prospects for next year.
5. They currently offer good value.
6. These companies are so solid they would classify as 'core ' holdings.
At least six companies in each list would be appreciated.

Finally, I would like to express my gratitude for the support and ideas you have shared this past year. Definitely one of the best advisory services available to Canadians,

Q: Hi Peter,

In this downtrend market could you please give your three best stocks to buy for 3 to 5 years hold in each sector in canada and US as well ?
Thank you for your best advise on this platform.

Q: I have a position in T I have been holding for years for the dividend which was cut with more cuts on the horizon.
I plan to sell and replace with Verizon. I am thinking T will drop further in December due to tax loss harvesting. With this in mind is it better to sell it now or wait until the new year.
