Investment Q&A

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

Q: We have just transferred from an advisor to a discount broker. We have a 8% position between two separate RIF accounts . As the risk is the same in a RIF or a TFSA account would it make sense to move this holding to our TFSA accounts with a total 5% holding
as there is no tax in the TFSA accounts? Your overall opinion of of the company please, and if 5% is too high of a holding for this company? Any other recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks MJ

Q: Two separate questions- deduct as necessary.

Forest product stocks appear to be in a trough right now, and weaker housing starts coupled with over-capacity seem to be holding them back with economic concerns in the background casting a shadow as well. I am wondering if you see a bit of a turning point here given recent capacity cuts, strong employment numbers, and a Fed decision to leave things as they are?

Regarding MFI; I struggle with taking profits too soon, but I have a fairly rapid 30%+ gain here. Your thoughts on its ability to maintain these gains or grind higher would be appreciated.

Thanks!!

Q: I am wondering what you think of the recent results for Alta Gas and whether you would consider it worth an investment. Considering it relative to ENB would you still prefer the later for better investment performance?
Many thanks.

Q: I am investigating where to invest my proceeds from KWH.UN once funds are received. I see that back on Mar 25th you recommended SPB. Since then it has been removed from your Model Income Portfolio. I also see that you have recommended PKI over SPB. I have about 2.7% of SPB in my portfolio currently. I am interested more in income then growth as we are now living off investment income. Funds that will be received are about 1.1% of total invested. I aim for 5% in a holding so would prefer 1 rather the both. Which would be preferable in your opinion? Is there a better ETF or other company?

Q: Hi 5i Guys,
What is your opinion on ALA's results and what do you think the outlook is for the stock going forward?
Would you suggest a Buy, Sell or Hold for the stock? What would you consider as "Danger Signals" that would suggest it may be time to exit the stock?
Thanks
Tom
