Q: Here's another question on Altagas. On the CC, management indicated that they are going to re-evaluate the proper dividend rate (payout ratio) for the company given the new mix of assets. I'm assuming this is code for "we're cutting the dividend". Your thoughts?

Thanks,
Peter

Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,

I got to give million thanks to 5i Research for their analysis on ESIO a few months ago when I bought it at 18, thereafter I watched it went up to 24 and dropped to 15 recently, Your prior analysis indicated that high growth will be expected in 2019 which assured me and made confident to hold this stock, and fortunately I got the reward to day , the stock popped up 90% this morning due to a take over. Without your assurance, I would have sold it at a much lower price or even sold it at a loss during the recent market down turn and sector sell off.

ECI Enercare was another example which I was also rewarded.

I understand that you can not always get it right though I got caught with some other recommendation, but as you said, and I fully agree with you that good stock offset the other loss.

I can not say enough thanks to 5i research for your excellent service and very honest analysis. Keep up the good work!

Q: I, like everyone else has been getting hit with the recent market volatility. 5% loss to my balanced portfolio. What would you say to someone who only has 3-5 years until retirement. I have been leaning towards growth but perhaps should I look for more income stocks with the downturn in order to transition into income 3-5 years.

Thanks

Q: Do you see a risk to BCE's dividend? Could a company like BCE cut their dividend and go to the bond market to lower their cost of capital? Also, BCE has made extensive capital investment over the last 5 or six years. How long would BCE management expect to wait to get a return on the companies investment?

Q: I own a position in this Company and it is up about 45%. I want to add more since o strongly believe in multi family units and I find this way of investing much easier than owning an actual apartment building, which I was considering. Should I wait for an equity offering to add to my position? What is the end game for interrent? Do they keep growing the portfolio to eventual sell to a bigger player or keep acquiring properties to become a bigger player. What’s your opinion?

Thanks,
Jason

Q: Hi 5i team:
I have a decent position in NA, which I like , but its price response to the recent month volatility and the "hold" recommendation from analysts is leading me to believe I should switch to another bank , what is your opinion and which bank would be a better buy now ?.
thanks
PD. There would be a new update on the market recent volatility

Q: Further to my previous question on ACI, as the company holds Cdn drop down pipeline assets of ALA would you generally view the dividend as more secure than ALA’s? Also, how would you compare ACI vs RNW in terms of dividend security and growth profile as both are Cdn drop down companies. Which is more attractive? Thanks.
