Investment Q&A

Q: Is it advisable now to invest in REGULATED utilities, given that there will be a need for huge data centers with the growth of AI? If yes, can you list and rank the ones you prefer?
Thank you!

Q: Hello team,
Can you help me understand please whether i should put new monies in TFSA towards bep.un or bepc ? On yahoo, i see bep.un has dividend of 5.87 percent but 1 year return of minus 2 percent where as bepc has dividend of 4.7 percent but one year return of 14 percent. From income and growth perspective, bepc seems to be better bet.. If this is the case, are investors losing out by investing in bep.un? i have huge loss in my rrsp from bep.un so would like to know where to put new monies as it seems brookfield would benefit from the energy transition. Alternatively, am i better off simply putting all my monies in BN and forget the spinoffs.. please explain and thank you ..

Q: With the ever increasing demand for power to fuel AI and tech, what companies would you suggest investing in going forward?

Q: I have held these two stocks for a long time but I am frustrated with their performance. They have been flat in the past 5 years. I am thinking of selling both and repacing them with ALA. Am I wrong and can you give me your thoughts on Alta gas or do you have a better replacement idea. Thank You.

Q: I am down 33% BCE and 18% BEPC in my non registered account. Would you sell both for tax loss purposes ? BEPC is suffering from the general negative in green stocks compounded by Trump but I like the company and would repurchase it while BCE would not be repurchased. Thanks. Derek

Q: I currently own Bep.un and want to buy BEPC.

1) If I sell BEP.UN for a loss can I replace it with BEPC right away or are they consider same stocks.

2) If they are same stocks and I buy BEPC do I need to average stock price for BEP.UN and BEPC.

3) Which one is more dividend Tax credit benefits.

4) If they are same stocks why BEPC has outperformed BEP.UN.

Thanks for your great service

I wish your team a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Q: Hi, just looking at CPX, (unbelievable). I missed out on this one , not my first or last miss, but was wondering if you could provide two or three recommendations that are geared towards the electrification boom that is here or coming. (I already have HPS.A) or is CPX still the one to buy?
Thanks

Q: Three to five year time frame
Stocks to sell and name to replace with growth stock

Q: If you own BN is there any particular reason to also own BEP.UN and BEPC?

Q: Hi,
I'd like to raise some cash in my non-registered account. How would you rank these stock (from first to sell to last to sell)? All will be sold within about 4 years.
Thanks,

Thanks

Q: I will appreciate it if you could provide your perspective on NPI.
What are the future prospects since the new Government in USA is not friendly for the likes of NPI and BEPC.
Is NPI a hold , sell or an opportunity to average down.
Thanks

Q: Following Donald Trump's recent election victory, utility stocks have experienced a pullback. Given the current valuation, would you consider it a good entry point given the recent weakness? Please also rank it

Thank you

Q: In view of the trump win I wonder if I should switch my Bepc in my RRIf into Sobo?
Looking for income and a little growth.
What do you think oh the idea?

Q: Hello,

There has been a sudden drop in BEPC’s price. Could you please explain the reason behind this decline?

Thanks.

Q: If Trump were to win the US Election he suggested he would create a Dept overseen by Elon Musk to reduce US spending by 1/3rd. One of his targets is Green Energy which clearly he would be happy to eliminate.

How would this affect Renewable Producers like BEPC. Northland Power. Algonquin and other TSX wind n Solar Producers with operations in the US as well as other Canadian Power Generators like Capital Power and Altagas?

Would Trump go as far as to reduce the mandated usage of corn based ethanol or this would not be a target as it would hurt the US Ag industry?

Q: hi. last month has seen 20% swings in BEPC price? does this seem unusual? any thoughts?
cheers, Chris

Q: Good day everyone. My holding in the following companies represent 25.11% of my investment portfolio across 3 registered and 1 cash account:
BN 5.00 %
BAM 2.36 %
BIPC 2.22 %
BIP.UN 1.35 %
BEPC 1.25%
For a total of 12.18 % amongst the Brookfield group of companies

CSU 5.49 %
TOI 1.81 %
LMN 1.40 %
For 8.7 % in CSU and associated companies

MLF 4.23 %

Collectively these holdings represent about 25.11 % of my holdings at the end of the 3Q.

I understand that your services are not to give personal advice but would value and appreciate your opinion on the weighing of these investments, specifically in the Brookfield group. The portfolio has done reasonably well (thanks fot 5i) but don't want to get complacent.

Much appreciated.

Q: BEPC is up over 8% today. Any idea why?
