Q: Larry Berman likes this pick for the 8% yield and the “explosion” of pipelines in the US. Do you have an opinion and would it be appropriate for an RRSP?

Q: Can you provide me a list of several dividend stocks that are relatively recession-proof but still have decent yield and potential for long-term growth? I'd like to start investing a bit in dividend stocks a bit each month but am wary of the financial uncertainty that is hovering over us right now.
Q: Could you comment on Carrick's article about the Connolly report. The prospects for CNR ( I always chicken out on CNR and then it goes higher). Are there similar strategies that appear to predict long term growth that you like ? And perhaps another name you like ?
Thanks for all yoru support,

Q: Hi, I used a screener to look at companies that have had a hard down in the last 6 months, as well as a positive uptick in the last 10 days. I have found two in the subject line above. I also want a small dividend at least and both above are sufficient. I think both AIF and NFI missed last quarter, and they are expected to grow, however, it appears that AIF's growth into 2019 is significantly more (according to scotia) than NFI. I do know NFI has been a darling and this can be a good time to get in. Can you give me your opinion on both in contrast and consider which one you would add to a portfolio now for longer term. No need to consider any of my other holdings. Thanks.
Q: I need to pick up a stock with good yield, while this stock would not giving that yield back via share price losses.
The two names I been looking at are DIV (showing some strong TA indicators of late) and CWX (considerable insider buying recently). In your view which one would you prefer? Again my key issue is which one is less likely to slide back in share prices and provides a safer dividend? Thanks.

Q: I’m confused why short seller analysts are allowed to manipulate stock prices for their own benefit. What’s the difference between an influential short seller shorting a stock and than manipulating the price with a bad report and a ceo buying or selling stock before an earnings report?
Q: with all the energy trouble in alberta, is it time to sell or hold D.un thanks jim
Q: I typically use ETF's rather than trying to pick the right stock. I notice that there are comments about ETF's in the questions section but I have not been able to find ETF Portfolios for various investment strategies, such as Income, conservative, growth, aggressive, Cnanda, USA, World and so on. Have I been missing something?
Q: Due to 5 I's comments on management and the rising payout ratio I have sold my KWH.UN and plan to replace it with one of the following options. In a portfolio currently containing 16 stocks and ETF's. Going to replace it with either BEP.UN or NFI or both. Which would you suggest ? 2.75 % in each or 5.5 % in one ? I am leaning toward BEP'UN if one but would like 5I's opinion. I could also go 5.5 % in each as there is surplus cash. { 17% }

Q: I got in at 14.00 a share should I buy more hold or sell thanks
Q: I assume ALA spun out ACI to reduce debt. Given the positive recommendations on ACI while ALA shares continue to decline, it appears to be short gain for long term pain. Thus, I am confused as to why ALA did this. Also, with ALA in the doldrums, would it make sense to take my loss in ALA and buy ACI? Or should I stick with ALA for greater rebound potential?
Q: Can you comment on effect of the Alberta cut and surplus of oil on the pipelines ie IPL
Q: Hi 5i!
This more of a financial planning question than an investing question.
I recently read the book "Retirement Income For Life". It talks about delaying taking CPP until 70 to maximize the amount received. This is achieved by drawing down RSPs from retirement to 70 and taking 1/3 of your retirement funds and buying an annuity. The annuity pays income for life and the larger CPP payment will last for life also. The goal is to not outlive your money in retirement. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this strategy.
Thank you for your insight!

Q: With the recent market correction, I have several stocks that are down quite significantly and others that stayed flat or went up a little. This involves that the weightings changed quite a bit for some stocks. I know 5i isn't a big fan of averaging down, but in such context what would be your advice? I have the followings (%loss, weight) :
SIS (-19%, 4%)
PHO(-41%, 1.7%)
KXS(-10%, 3.3%)
NFI(-32%, 2.6%)
PBH(-28%, 3.4%)
TOY(-23%, 2.5%)
MX(-22%, 3.1%)
I currently have 13% cash and would consider reducing it to 7-8%. My sectors are well diversified. Which of the above would be your favorites today for a position increase?

Q: Hi, my question is does i5Research have any insight as to why preferred shares have drastically declined in price during November and is there any hope that this trend will reverse. My already underwater collection of Enbridge and bank preferred shares have decreased 7% in value since the start of November. My collection of preferreds are rate reset, resetting in 2019 and where issued with a 3.8% to 4.4% yield. Thanks … Cal
