Investment Q&A

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

Q: Do you know where you can consistently find "shareholder yield". Is there a company or service that shows this metric when analysing securities?

Q: Hello 5i Team

I currently hold in my US$ denominated RRSP Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. (BEP) to avoid complications with taxation of BEP.UN in a taxable account.

I want to proceed with buying Brookfield Renewable Corporation (BEPC) in my taxable account to receive Canadian Eligible Dividends. I would then sell my BEP holdings in the RRSP.

Could you please provide your top 5 ideas in the US market (i.e. NYSE or NASDAQ listed) for electrical utility and or renewable electrical generation to replace the BEP units in my RRSP.

Thank you

Q: Hello 5i,
This message from RBC Direct Investing has just come through. I thought it might be of some interest to the broader 5i community. My guess is that soon the other large banks may follow suit if they have not already done so. Worth keeping an eye on.....

Effective October 31 2023, RBC Direct Investing Inc. is amending the ‘Conflicts of Interest Disclosure’, section 3 to delete the following sentence:

“RBC Direct Investing does not currently offer high interest savings account ETFs.”

Access to high interest savings account Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) is now available on the platform.

Cheers,
Mike

Q: Is the news from yesterday of a large stockholder selling out completely a reflection of the company's future outlook? Do you think the stock remains in the doghouse for the next quarter? This year? Does it make sense to book a loss now and rethink in the future? How do you view its prospects and valuation after today's price change?
Regards

Q: I believeI that this rate reset will reset on February 28 2024 at the five year Government of Canada rate +3.96% with a minimum reset of 5.85% . If that happened today it would be approximately 8.1%.. Is that correct? Assuming the 8.1% at the reset what would the probability be that these preferreds are redeemed at $25 per share (currently 22.2)?

Q: Re your answer on the warrants. High finance seems as clear as mud. If csu wants a deb until 2040 it just needs to never redeem it.
It seems as I only have 30 shares of csu and $40,000 in debs I have to buy 370 warrants. Thus add to my cost base of 105.
On the surface it seems the best course of action is to sell my debs now for the cap gain ( rrif) as I prefer not to add to the cost basis .
I assume csu plans a redemption, why else go through with this exchange.
Thoughts ?

Q: A question on Telesat
What are your thoughts on the recent news and run up in this stock... I have always been interested in this and MDA and others in the space sector. Can you provide and updated view on Telesat considering the MDA contract and huge cost savings and specifically the TAM for the LEO satellites seems to be Massive.
Also what other companies would be classified as competitors specifically for Telesat's focus on non-consumer enterprise, government, aviation industries? Starlink is eventually going to offer those services but they focus on residential currently. Thanks!

Q: Hi

I'm confused with this one. 5I considers PLC an Income stock, yet it has a yield of less than 2%. It is a perennial acquirer which I think of as a rollup strategy. If you look at it's 5 year stock performance, it is not impressive having reached $40+ and then tumbling back to 23 which is where it was 5 years ago. Admittedly, it is in a sector that will always have market demand, but other than that, what is the attraction?
