Q: Hello 5i team,
I am up $6,000 on MMM of the the lost value is $15,500. I just bought $5,000 of GS. Should I reduce MMM by $5000 and buy another $5,000 of GS? I have a $600,000 in equities and this GS purchase would bring me up to 20% financials.
thank you

Q: Hi.
I keep my Telco at a 5% portfolio weighting. Presently I have 3/5ths BCE. How do you recommend I fill up the other 2/5ths? All in BCE presently with positive momentum. Telus to match the 5i portfolio recommendations. AT&T to take advantage of American Dividend and Share price drop? This will be held in a registered account. Thank you J

Q: In your recent response to Margita you recommended holding Enbridge for the dividend. As a retiree I purchased 1k shares of ENB not only for the dividend income but also the projected dividend growth of 10-12%. What are your thoughts on the later? Is there anything in the latest financials or management comments (or lack thereof) that would cause you to re-consider ENB for the balanced portfolio.
Many thanks
Mike

Q: Howdy 5i,

With BEP's earnings announced Wednesday morning with a slight near-term miss but positive outlook for 2018+ and potential deal flow in India down the road, can you shed any light on what is driving today's (thursday) selling pressure. Price action is -3% on what seems to be no news. Arf! Arf! Arf! Is this year-end portfolio manager action? Volume a little higher than normal. Maybe I'm just scared of the wind...

Thank you for your time and insights.

Q: Hi 5i Team.

The only pipeline company I own is IPL. I have been looking at ENB for a while but can't make myself pull the trigger yet. One of the reasons I originally chose IPL instead was that it had (and still has) a much lower P/E ratio, reflecting much lower growth expectations. ENB currently sits at a P/E of roughly 35 which makes no sense to me. Do you think part of the reason for the price decline over the summer is due to investors reassessing growth (multiple compression) or am I over-emphasizing P/E when looking at pipeline companies?

Can you recommend a template that I can use to determine sector allocations? Should allocations be within a particular account or for my entire portfolio?

Thanks
Peter
