Investment Q&A

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

Q: i am concerned that owning pipes and parkland (which I do, for income) is going against growing headwinds, and there is a growing international trend toward cleaner energy, renewable energy, etc. I don't think I need dump all of these now, but at some point, don't you think we should be lightening up. Or is it such a longterm issue I need not worry about it. i want to be ahead of the curve.

If you agree, then what would you recommend instead for income, in the areas of clean energy and renewables?

Q: Hi,

Can you provide your opinion on this close ended fund. Based on the investments within the fund I can't wrap my head around how they get the +8% yield. It appears they use some leverage and possibly part of the yield is return of capital but even if that is correct it seems high. I currently own XTR and it has met my objective of steady income. If you think this will perform similarly I'd be happy. Will invest in this inside an RRSP. Thanks

Q: Hi 5i, I’m trying to understand the price setting dynamics when expressions of interest are sought for an IPO and a price range is indicated instead of a fixed price. E.g. the current Freshii offering indicates a price in the range of $8.50-10.00. What determines the actual price? Why wouldn’t the company and the bankers just pick the top end every time if that is in their best interest? Thanks!

Q: Just curious. There is an alzheimer drug that has been found to repair and rebuild teeth is called "Tideglusib" and it is mfg by a pharma co. called "Zeltia Group" but, they are on the Spanish Madrid exchange symbol "ZEL" with a quote of 4.045 ?.
The question is; how does one buy and sell on these smaller exchanges, how does the currency aspects work and what are the tax implications etc?
Thank you
