Q: Good Evening 5i,
I need to add a "communications" company to my dividend fund. I would appreciate it if you could rank T, BCE, RCI.B and SJR.B for me. I'm planning on a 5 year hold and hoping for reasonable/modest annual increases in both the dividend and share price. Would you recommend 1 full position or 2 half positions?
Thanks for your great work as usual.

Q: adding to the pile of questions on ENB that you have been getting lately :) I gather the stock is down almost 12% YTD excl dividends due to lower oil prices and also being a sort of bond proxy so as rates rise people look elsewhere for equivalent risk free yield. The current yield, based on a full year at the current quarterly payment rate, is close to 5% and the company has stated a clear path to raising the dividend in the future. While short term rates are rising it doesn't look like long term rates are moving in the same direction. Given the spread between ENB dividend and long term bond rates do you feel investors are getting enough of a premium to invest in ENB and would you be a buyer here for a 5-10 year hold?

Q: I have some cash to deploy in an income account (riff) and would like your opinion on where there maybe value given the recent pullback. I am also mindful of not chasing yield and risking capital unduly. I have a 3 percent position in Bgi that I could increase or start a new position in Dr if you think the dividend is fairly safe and given time the stock will rebound. I am fairly diversified and open to other suggestions of income bargains out there.
Thanks for your insight.

Q: Hi 5i,
My understanding is that if I buy units in a flow-through shares partnership, I can’t sell them until they are rolled over into a mutual fund, 1-2 years after the partnership is established. My question is: if I were to buy the flow-through shares themselves, direct from the issuing company, would there be any similar minimum holding period, during which the shares would not be tradeable, or at least not without transferring away the flow-through tax benefit? Thanks!
