Investment Q&A

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

Q: The 7% CVD is being called early. It is in my RRIF and converts to 121 shares per thousand.

Do you suggest converting into the common shares which are now selling at $12.53 or would you sell the CVD for $151?

In other words, do you like TVK as a RRIF holding or do you think I could do better.
And if so what would you suggest with the proceeds?

Q: Hi,

Having sold DRG.UN & CGX, I'm sitting on some cash.

Could you give me your top 5 relatively safe, relatively high dividend/distribution paying choices to replace these?

Sector is not important. Getting a benefit from companies whose price is depressed due to tax loss selling is a bonus but not critical.

Thanks,

Gord

Q: I am a huge believer in asset allocation. I even subdivide the mutual funds and ETFs into their sectors, then add in my stocks to end up with a better total portfolio asset allocation. However now and then I end up with a stock that, depending on the source, is quoted as being in different sectors.

Example #1 = CSH is both a REIT and in Health Care, so I treat it as a hybrid and allocate 50% to REITs and 50% to HC.

Example #2 = TRP is said to be in both the Utilities and Energy sectors. Even though I believe it is truly a Utility, it seems to trade closer to stocks in the Energy sector. So, I allocate 50% to each sector.

So...what to do with my potential purchase of NTR. Depending on the source, It could either be Consumer Non-Cyclical or Materials. OR, to be consistent with my above methodology, is it a hybrid and therefore allocate 50% to each sector?

Thanks for your help...Steve
