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

Q: Would you recommend ATCO for a 3 to 5 year hold or would Fortis or Emera be a better choice? Also, why has ATCO gone down so much in the past 6 months.

Thank-you.

Q: Hi,
No rush for this question.
Could you please recommend some stocks to build a portfolio for the Smith Manoeuvre.
2/3 would be in an unregistered account and 1/3 in a TFSA?
I'm looking for about 15 stocks (or more) in order of your preferred ranking of what to buy first. Also, which of the ones suggested would be preferable in a TFSA?
Please deduct as many credits as you see fit.
Thanks

Q: I am an investor with a fairly balanced, income oriented securities portfolio with a relatively high weighting to financials. I am thinking of adding the securities noted and am interested in your thoughts on each, as well as how you would rank them on a relative basis. Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: Happy New Year to the great team at 5iResearch and thank you for the great advice I have received from you over the years. It has been very profitable. I have a reasonably well balanced portfolio with a small amount of AQN ( ~0.5%) but no PBH. I am considering selling AQN and buying some PBH as I am relatively low in Consumer defensives. Which of the 2 companies do you prefer?

Q: With oil looking like it may come back I would appreciate your opinion on 4 US oil related companies that I am down on. I am not so convinced that they can come back or even survive but I would really appreciate your opinion on them.
Thank you and Seasons Greetings to you! James

Q: Happy New Year Peter and the 5i team! Thank you for another year of useful steady independent information flow to guide 5i members.

I am considering adding 5 large-cap or mid-cap Canadian sustainable dividend growth stocks that are currently under-valued in unloved sectors and now yielding at least 3%. MFC and SU stand out. What is your opinion about both as medium risk investments over the next 3-5 years?

In addition, please indicate your 3 best stock alternatives, and 3 best ETFs, in the medium risk large cap or mid-cap Canadian space with a solid record of dividend growth.

I realize this is a broad request so please deduct points as you deem appropriate.
Thank-you.

Q: I know that you rate AQN highly, but why has this stock underperformed the others by like night and day in the last year. What is it that has held this stock back?. This has been a hot market for these stocks here in Canada and the USA.
Seasons Greetings
