Q: Altagas has dropped in last week. Did this occur because of Fort Mcmurray fire. What is the impact of the fire on Altagas company and its' holdings ? Do I need to be concerned ??

Did the fire affect any other companies (that I should be concerned about ?) (I think Great west life took a hit too ???)

thanks

Ernie

Q: My technology companies are AAPL, AVO, CSU, ESL, OTC,PUR and TNC. Together they represent 18 percent of my portfolio. How would you suggest I go about adding SH or KXS? Should I just go overweight with technology or replace 1 or 2 or more. Or just stick with what I have and not fit these two additions. If you suggest only one of SH and KXS then could you please specify which one.

Q: Hello Peter and team: I am looking at the above rate reset preferred shares, both of which have a minimum reset rate of 5.75% at maturity and are currnetly yielding approx. 5.7%.
Assuming that interest rates are not set to rise substantially in the next few years, what other factors and risks may cause these preferred shares to drop in price and do you think that these are safe to hold for the yield for a 5 year+ hold in a TFSA. Is there any difference between the M & K series and which would be preferable to hold at this time.

Thank you for your advise.

Q: I'm always looking for good quality dividend companies (4-6%) with some growth potential. I'm currently at about 85-90+ % dividend companies with 10-15% that have more growth potential and little or no dividends. Can you direct me to the best source/list of the companies you sometimes refer to like Fortis that have never reduced their dividend. I believe they are referred to as the 'Dividend Titans"??
