Q: Hi, would like your opinion on Enf. I have had it over a year with a 4% loss,but doing ok with dividend.
I was thinking of switching to either CWX or INE for a little more growth with a dividend. Would you consider this a ok switch or would I just be spinning my wheels.
Sector is no problem, but do like good management,good cash flow, lower debt, some growth etc.
Or could you recommend one or two dividend stocks with some growth?
Thanks,long term member

Q: Hello,

My question is about smaller dividend paying oil companies. I have referenced Torc, but the question could be about the entire universe of companies. These stocks continue to drift lower, even with the oil price firming in and around $50 USD. My understanding is that most, if not all of these companies can continue to pay dividends and make money if the oil price stays at these prices or higher. What will it require to get investors interested in this sector again?

Regards,

Robert

Q: Hi,
I have a fairly balanced long term outlook portfolio. Many of the stocks are safe(r) growth stocks with all drips being used. I am looking to deploy a few thousand $$ for a cheaper, riskier, high growth stock. What would your few (3-5) favorites be for this? Please rank them in order of preference and likely potential growth.

Thanks

Q: In your Balanced Equity portfolio, you hold both ATD.b and PKI. I thought PKI was a smaller version of ATD.b with gas stations and convenience stores. ATD.B is classified as a Consumer Non-cyclical while PKI is classified as Energy. Why the difference? Both have done nothing lately. Which one would you prefer for long-term growth. Also, ATD.b is not rated while PKI is a B. Does this impact your preference or not?
I am new to this site but love the Q&A.
thanks

Q: I use Adjusted Cost Base.ca to track my ACB. I have been with TD Direct Investing since 2012. They do an ok job of tracking ACB of stocks (including DRIP's and commissions) for stocks bought and held on one side or the other (CDN or US) of the account. This tends to go off the rails if I buy CDN stocks that pay USD dividends I journal them on the US side to get dividend/drip. If I move any portion of a given stock back to the CDN side of the account to sell or donate, I find the ACB is not accurate. It's easier to keep track and more accurate with Adjusted Cost Base.ca and it's free. Also, at tax time, TD only records the market value of sell transactions. You're on your own to calculate the book value.

Q: Regardless of NAFTA the US is going to require lots of lumber to rebuild after their disasters. WEF doesn't have any US mills but the other three do - but it does have a 3% Yield. The others have very low to zero yields. How would you rank these with regard to growth and solid financials over the next 1 - 2 yrs?

Is it a good timing to initiate a position, what are their growth and safety prospects. Could you rate the above in order of priority.
I value as always your opinion.
