Q: I've been looking at this stock. I've read the most recent comments on your posts. I'm wondering if things might be different with the current proposed changes to the board that seem to be a bit of a battle in the company. Nice dividend and pretty healthy balance sheet, what do you think of a possible takeover bid coming?
Q: Good Morning,
I currently hold BEP, AQN and ENB in the utilities category of my portfolio with ENB weighted 50% more than BEP and AQN. I want to diversify and add a 4th to the group and would like your recommendation. CU comes to mind but I am wondering if it is still controlled by the Southern family ( Nothing personal but out of principle I am not a fan of family controlled public companies that put family members in charge rather than the best person for the job...). I am a retired investor looking for income with a dash of safety.
Thanks

Q: SPB seems to be favourite among analysts at TD (All buy rate, Jan 2019) and also Thomson Reuters report writers. You have it as a sell . SPB has a high debt (due to adquisitions). (beta is 1.23 on TSX index). Can you comment on the risk due to a market downturn and also on the fact that management seems to be too focused on growing (at all cost) rather than protecting the co. for a storm in the market. Which one you worried more ?
Q: Hello 5i would there be any further dividend payouts or would the Dec 28/18 be the last one?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,
Marjorie recently asked a question about Telus:
"Given the recent news re Huawei, Canada/China problems, and the fact that Telus is very invested in the technology, are my Telus shares at risk? Telus is a fairly substantial long term holding in my portfolio."
Could you please answer the same question for BCE? Thanks for your insight.

Markel Group Inc. (MKL $2,168.12)
Q: I currently hold Markel (MKL) for some conservative balance to my portfolio, and I have (had) high hopes as it's commonly called a 'mini Berkshire' and hey, it's insurance they always win... While my position is still up, it's underperformed relative to my expectations. Further, I'm increasingly anxious about how extreme weather events (read climate change - fires, hurricanes, floods) will effect the insurance business.
In light of the above, I have two questions:
1. How do you feel about MKL, and;
2. Can you recommend an insurance company that is less exposed to property and more exposed to life insurance, travel insurance, or other?
Best.

Q: Considering purchasing SCL who have an agreement to purchase ZCL. What are your thoughts? Sure wish I had held onto ZCL!!!
Thanks
Thanks
Q: Very disappointed in yet another 5i pick in the income portfolio down substantially until a final sell recommendation is released.
You state: "With declining equity markets, lower assets under management and increasing competitiveness in the Canadian financial industry, we have decided to sell Gluskin Sheff"
My question is, why did you recommend it in the first place? All the items applied when you decided to add it to the income portfolio. Seems another stock where you were simply chasing yield without dying proper DD.
