Q: We are at equal weight, full positions [2 O&G stocks, 2 midstream]. Our goals are dividend growth, some capital appreciation. My question is whether we should overweight midstream over O&G stocks given 1. macro/ political [Trump tariff threat and preference for lower O&G prices], and 2. data centre demand.

Q: Hello 5i
Given the intention to increase a position of any of these currently held for income (and growth as all being held long term), in what order would you suggest could be most beneficial considering all are currently underweight.

Q: Hello
My GIC has just matured in my RRSP. The rates are low now and was thinking of putting the money in either of the above two ETFs which have a higher yield.
MNY has a higher interest but higher MER but better return overall however seems riskier then CASH. What would your suggestion be, would you have another favorite or would you invest in some other "safe" income instrument in the RRSP, ie ENB?

Thanks
Jeff

Q: Hi 5i.

Which Canadian companies would meet the criteria to be considered dividend aristocrats, if they were listed in the US? I know one of the criteria is that the company must be a member of the S&P 500 Index, so obviously an equivalent index membership will have to be used; perhaps the S&P/TSX? Or, would you apply a minimum market cap threshold? It would be interesting to know what Canadian companies would meet the test. Thanks.

Q: telecoms have had a rough year and have not reacted positively to the lowering of interest rates with the heavy debt levels they have I would have expected a positive reaction by now. That being said if you had to choose between Rogers, Telus or BCE what one would you choose and why ?

Q: I know that utility and pipeline companies usually have higher than normal debt levels but would any of these cause you concern? A quick comment on each company would be appreciated and whether you would buy, hold or sell. Thank you!

Q: Hello

Canadian Oil/Gas names and pipelines stocks have retreated this week, possibly, in reaction to news of Trump's proposed tariffs on Canada.

What is the likelihood of these tariffs actually being put in place, with specific reference to Oil and Gas exports to US from Canada ?

If worse happens, would these levies impact Oil/Gas producers/integrated names and pipelines differently ?

Do you consider this week's pullback in these names, as an opportunity to increase exposure to these names and if so, in what order ?

( Noted that 5i bumped SU weight in Bal portfolio, Tuesday )

Thanks

Q: What are your best ideas for income/dividend stocks/etfs in a non-registered account? Main goal is regular income.
Thank you.
Read Answer Asked by A on November 28, 2024
Q: Regarding potential Trump tarrifs, do they apply to services also or only goods?

Do you see any of the companies (DRX, CLS, BN, PRL, Hps.a, ENB, Shop,.... ) affected by this?

I have gains on most of them. Would you sell right away and buy later,.depending on market outcomes?

Would you have a different strategy for stocks that I plan to sell in 1 year vs 5+ years?
