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

Q: How would someone find a list of companies that have been around since the early 1900's (have gone through the depression, wars, hyper inflation etc) and never cut or suspended their dividend? Would those same companies be theoretically safe and follow the same history if we end up in a prolonged recession/depression now?

Q: If we have yet to reach the worst of the virus threat and if the current question mark regarding the direction the price of oil will take in the future poses a problem, I think we have yet to see the lowest prices for these companies. The question is how much further down their prices can go. If my theory is correct, at what price would you take an initial position in these companies?

from your Growth portfolio? Thanks

Q: I have few questions regarding preferred shares. Many solid companies ''before covid19'' have preferred shares over 8% div. If that rate is OK for me for long term even without price appreciation, how safe will you quote them in general? What is the risk associated with that investment? Will you favor ''retractable'', ''rate-reset'', ''perpetual'', ''fixed-floating'' or ''floating rate''? How to find the term of a specific share?
Thanks a lot
