Q: Hi 5i Guys,
We have generated some cash and I would like your thoughts about parking the extra cash in BCE or Telus and at least getting paid a nice dividend which greatly exceeds the interest that we're getting.
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks

Q: I am an income investor. I try and purchase equities who raise their dividend by approximately at least the rate of inflation. I hold both BCE and Telus. Given the announcement today by BCE that they will not be raising their dividend in 2025, what are your thoughts on selling Telus and purchasing BCE simply due to the spread in their yields in order to pick up the higher BCE dividend as sort of a proxy to make up for the lack of an expected increase?

Q: I am setting up a TFSA for my wife. I have been managing my own TFSA for 7 years but my wife has maintained her account with a BMO investment advisor. We also both have RIFs managed by the same advisor. My TFSA has far outperformed the accounnts managed by the professional (thanks to your advice) but my wife is very risk adverse. She has about $100 K to invest. We are both in our 70s and don't have pressing needs for the cash. Could you. suggest a basket of Canadian/US stocks/etfs that would provide some low risk growth with a 10 year horizon.
