Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Brookfield Office was taken in by Property Partners and now both have been taken private by Brookfield Asset Mgt.

You once wrote these shares are not the best choice as the office market was in difficult times....not unlike today as Covid Delta comes on.

If BAM has taken the real estate private, does the risk of default not get reduced? Making these prefs a reasonable buy below $25, Min Reset ( 5.10%) with a current yield above 5.10%?

How likely is it that Brookfield parent would let a Sub default on payments?

Q: Bought CU over CPX because of long history and large capital program to move CPX off coal.
Surprised Alberta power rates are good given their economy is languishing. Which do you see as the better option going forward for steady income and likely dividend increases above inflation rate (unlike CU of late)? Thanks.

Q: thanks for Thursday's Market Update...the narrative and charts put reduced tapering with interest rate increases clearly in front of me...and now is making me wonder, especially about a possible window of opportunity later in the year, if I should wait until later to top up to full positions in ISRG and SYK, both heath care US stocks in a LIRA and to be held for the long-term, or do it now....what would you suggest I do or consider?.....oh, the funds used would move health care closer to the Portfolio Analytic target for this sector........thanks for the insights....Tom

Q: The other day Bruce asked about buying ATA at the current price. The answer concluded with " it remains fine to buy, but it should not be a 'buy and forget' name".
I am pretty much a buy and hold investor. What can a retail investor with limited access to research and market information (and limited wherewithal to understand the market) do to assess when if might be time to sell this stock?
Thank you for your excellent service.
