Q: Your response to a recent question asking which of these companies to add to:
"BIP has grown the dividend by 16% and BEP has grown the dividend by 35.5%. We would use history as the guide here and side with BEP.UN."
Consider over the past year BEP.UN share price increased by 7.5% whereas BIP.UN increased by 36.5%. Over 5 years BEP.UN gained 46% but BIP.UN gained 132%. In my history book BIP.UN wins hands down notwithstanding the difference in dividend increase last year.

Q: Hello Peter,
Facebook announced great results;however, the stock hardly moved. Any comments? For gold, would you consider kirkland lake and detour as long term holds in that sector. Also, constellation software after the article in the globe has taken a step back. Is it good time to add more? Thanks very much

Q: Gary's question regarding the border adjustment tax 9BAT) on oil reflected my concern, as well. Presently, Canada ships 3.5 boe and Mexico is at about 800,000 so energy independence seems well down the road. If there is a BAT, some have said gasoline prices in the US will rise proportionately. I don't understand that conclusion. Canada only gets $40/barrel and Mexico $46. They can't raise the price to cover the tax so does that mean US recipients will get less and then raise prices to consumers?
Thanks.

Q: Hello,
My TFSA current composition is:
ATD.B(20%),KXS(30%),GUD(20%),NFI(20%),and YRI(10%)(Thanks 15%UP).
What changes would you make to my TFSA to make it more aggressive, I understand it also means more risk. What would you get rid off in my setup.

Muchas gracias!

Q: Your preference between Intertape Polynmer (ITP) and ZCL Composites (ZCL).

Consensus eps estimates has ITP earning $1.16 in 2017 and $1.23 in 2018. Not all that inspiring but the business seems stable enough and its in a sector where, I think, if the US economy picks up I can envision the company beating those eps estimates.

ZCL is cheaper using 2017 eps estimates for comparative purposes and seems to have a little better growth going forward. However with ZCL their business seems a little more difficult to predict.

Your opinions are appreciated.

Thanks.

Q: BIP.UN and BEP.UN both released their Q4 results in the last two days and both raised their payouts. I currently hold both stocks. If I'm to increase my investment in only one of them, which one would you prefer in terms of longer term growth and further payout increases down the road? Thanks for your insight.
