Q: Hello 5i,
I am down 25% with Verizon. As an income investor, should I just hang on and collect dividends as I wait for the turnaround or sell, take the hit and get something else?

Q: I have done well on TOU but am well off the highs. The dividend is minimal and I'm wondering if you can suggest another energy company that is strong but with a decent dividend. what about CPG, for example. I have a full ENB position as well as lots of renewables so am thinking more fossil fuel companies. thanks

Q: Who should i focus on for copper. Manageable debt to survive any economic down turn, mining in stable political countries, low cost production, reasonable life of current mine(s) for future supply. Trading on the Canadian exchanges With EV etc I expect supply of copper will be another metal that will be in short supply but will have its ups and downs in the short term.

Q: In response to my earlier question:
Thanks for highlighting that the "Shares Outstanding" hasn't gone up a lot in the last decade.
I am looking at the data provided from gurufocus and their numbers for "Outstanding Shares" match with what you mentioned in the earlier answer.
But when I look at "Common Stock" it has been doubled in the last decade period. It remained flat until 2019 at 5660 mil and jumped to 11399 mil by end of 2022. Do you think this is because of the split in 2020?
Can you please clarify the difference between "common stock" (which doubled in last few years) and "shares outstanding" (which somewhat remained steady in the same period)?
Should I not look at "common stock" while looking at a company's balance sheet.
Thanks again for addressing my concern.
