Q: Could you give your opinion on whether TRP is likely to drop dramatically in the next year due to increases in the interest rate or due to its valuation returning to a more normal level. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team,
I'm curious about TRP rising like it has the last few days. I can't find any news; maybe you can comment.
Thanks for everything.

Q: Hi Peter,
Now that you have released the income portfolio and have included Valener and sold BEP.un and IPL to make room for this name would you suggest we sell our utilities/pipelines to buy this? For example sell TRP to buy VNR? Thank-you.

Q: Hi Peter/team I would like your opinion on TRP.PR.B is it worth holding .thanks for your great job!!! Jim
Q: Dear 5i,
As a quick follow up to my previous question on TransCanada TRP, I also currently have about 3.0% of the portfolio in IPL. I was thinking of using some of the proceeds from selling TRP.PR.D to bring that up to 5.0% in IPL. Having another pipeline seems like a good idea and Enbridge is in the Model Portfolio as well. Is that still the best pick today or would you suggest TRP or Pembina?
Also, saw the posting of the December 2013 portfolio. Congratulations or your out-performance! I know it won't always be like that, but you did very well for your membership. I've been really using the service and learning a lot from you!

Q: Dear 5i,
I just did my 2 year renewal with you. I've been a member since the very first day and wanted to thank you for your care of exisiting members!
To celebrate, I was hoping I could ask a question about TRP and TRP.PR.D. I own both the common and preferred stock of TransCanada (about 5% in each) and wanted to sell one of the positions for balancing reasons. The rest of my portfolio is all cash and stocks (no other fixed income). I was planning on holding the preferred "forever" and selling the common but the thought crossed my mind that the preferred my react particularily negatively to rising interest rates (worse than the common). Any thoughts on what should stay and what should go?

Q: I presently own Pembina Pipeline for the last several years for dividend & growth. I see Trans Canada has been in the news a lot lately and was wondering if this is a good entry point going forward for the same reason I have owned Pembina? Thank you for your valued opinion.
Q: what's your opinion of TRP at this price? Is there a better stock for this space? (especially for equity growth). thx
Q: At current prices, what are your thoughts regarding Enbridge and TransCanada Pipe Lines? Dividend seems fine, but will the evaluations slip?
Q: I am in the process on selling my TRP as part of a rebalancing. Do you recommend selling at the market price or the bid? For example I could sell small chunks at market or the total position at the bid. TRP must be widely held but I suppose a market price could be manipulated. How safe is the market price?
When buying do you guys tend to buy at the ask price or at the market?
My father told me he always bought/sold at market as he felt it was better to execute the purchase/sale rather than quibble about the price.
Thanks

Q: Good morning 5i team. I bought Enbridge (ENB) and TransCanada (TRP)during their recent price dips in June. Realize it's only been a couple of months; however, both seem to be languishing, with ENB down some more. Is this due to the ongoing uncertainty surrounding projects like Gateway, Keystone, etc., ongoing concerns about income stocks, or maybe both? Are thet both still decent long-term holds? Thanks.
Q: Team,
Thoughts on Transcanada now after the recent dip? Seems very attractive to get in for a long term hold, but what do you think the downside risk is if Keystone gets axed? I'm looking at a full position. Thanks!

Q: Peter and Team,
I am 30 years old. I currently have 14.6% of invested funds in cash and the remainder is all equities. Of the total portfolio, I have 10.7% in utilities split between IPL.UN (3.2%)and TransCanada TRP (7.5%). With TRP hitting $50 today, I was thinking about switching some of that common stock into the Preferred stock. Can you please give some guidance on the quality of this move and if you recommend a particular TransCanada Preferred or if there is some other vehicle you'd recommend totally?
I am thinking I could use some diversification from common equities but in a general sense, I am scared of buying bonds for a few reasons: I worry that while you may get your coupon, you may get hurt by either significant capital losses or by devaluation of currencies. Because Bonds are typically priced against US Treasuries, I am scared a run on the government credits could put pretty much any bond at risk of big capital losses. Is preferred stock a good way to go?

Q: Hi Peter any thoughts on Obama passing the northern leg of the Keystone Pipeline and the impact on TRP either way? I have significant gains on my TRP and thinking of booking profits in case Obama plays politics and doesn't pass or delays the pipeline once again. If I do sell any other names you would suggest I switch into with similar attributes,i.e stability, nice dividend etc..thanks.
Q: As someone approaching retirement I am looking at tilting my portfolio towards income. What metrics would you use in evaluating an income stock for a long term hold? In particular is it a red flag if the dividend is not covered by the free cash flow? Even if its well covered by earnings. This appears to be the case for Trans Canada (TRP).
Q: Hi Peter/team your opinion about TRP.PR.B please thanks.
Q: Hi Peter,
I just became a memeber this week but I am very impressed by what I have read on the site so far. So here is my first question.
My broker called me today recommending that I sell trans canada pipeline and buy huskey. He has suggested this several times over the last year or so but I've been relunctant to sell trp given that i bought it at a low price so it pays me a 6% dividend. i have the cash to buy huskey without selling trp but I'm not sure it is a growth stock and I don't want to buy it just for the dividend as I prefer capital gains. can you give me an opionion on these two companies given the current market conditions?
Thanks Peter.

Q: Hi, and thanks so much for this great service. I bought TRP in February and since then it hasn't done much. The dividend is not enough to maintain my interest -- do you any upside in the offing? Thanks!
