Investment Q&A

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

Q: My Reit and Utilities have become underweight in my portfolio (not because they haven't done well - other stocks have just done better). What would be your top three value investments in these sectors today (they all seem a bit expensive right now) in both the US and Canada. i am looking for both income and a bit of growth.

Q: Hello,
I would like to know if there is an easy way to find ETF's which provide dividends on a monthly basis. Is there a list out there I can use or would you have a short list of such dividend payers? I do own XDV which is a monthly payer. I believe that using a DRIP in my account with monthly dividends should grow my portfolio faster over the long term.

Thanks for all your help.

PS: I love the portfolio analytics feature you have added.

Q: Hi folks, what is typically the best week to pick up quality companies that have been subject to tax selling? I'm sure waiting until end of December is too long, but right now likely too early. Is there a typical week where these stocks are at their bottom?

Q: I have heard a number of analysts talking about a rotation into cyclical stocks. What is your opinion? What are your recommendations in that space? Is there an ETF that tracks the space, either in CAN or US?
Thank you,

Q: Hi 5i team,
These two stocks, which are in the Balance portfolio, had a lot of happenings in the past few days. GIL posted negative news while GUD posted positive news. Is it a good time to initiate a 4% position in one or both stocks ? Would it be prudent to add to these two stocks right now, or better to wait till the dust settles.
Thanks

Q: For my fixed income side of my portfolio I've just been keeping cash in a high interest savings account (Achieva Financial in Manitoba). It pays 2.3% interest. I just checked the yield to maturity of BND the US Vanguard bond ETF and it's 2.3%. The YTM for ZAG the Canadian BMO bond ETF is 2.2%. Hardly seems worth paying an MER and risking price fluctuations. What do you think, am I missing something here?
