Q: Could you compare the prospects of these two companies going forward

Q: You recently answered a question by saying "For pipeline and/or energy infrastructure, we would suggest ENB and/or TRP."

I hold PPL. Do you feel that ENB or TRP are strong enough to warrant selling PPL to purchase one/both of them?

PS: I really like that you respond to questions so quickly.

Q: Looking at rationalizing my Canadian telcos and would appreciate your ranking in order of the Canadian telco options.
Is there an American telco you would prefer in that ranking?
Preferably looking for dividend income and growth in your choices.
Cheers,
Peter

Q: good morning:
altagas sure seems to be making a lot of news so far this year ]with more news this morning. Do you think they will have to dilute shares to do some of these these deals and would you think since they pay a nice dividend now this could be in jeopardy.

Q: Good evening,
Do you have an opinion on this company? Would you buy it? Do you consider their recent earnings setback temporary?
Thx

Q: I have 2 transportation stocks CP and AC, up 30% and 48% respectively in a very short time. Now they represent 5% each of my diversified portfolio.
Both were an opportunistic purchase since I had no transportation stocks. Do you think I should sell them or there is more upside potential? Industry consolidation in case of CP and AC increasing its cash flow, lowering debt, perhaps paying a dividend (don't sell your winners philosophy)?

Q: Recently, I sold some of my well performing CDN dividend equities (a tenth of my RRSP portfolio), and wish to redeploy to high-quality US dividend stocks paying 4-5%. Any suggestions?

Q: Which sector is currently undervalued in your opinion and what companies I should consider within that sector.

Q: Hi Peter and Team. The Canola Council of Canada suggests 43,000 canola farmers in Canada and Internationa canola demand is growing. Based on INP's 122 contracts to date (and historically steady contract growth) it seems there is a long runway for growth at INP. As far as I know Input Capital has no direct competitors, however barriers to entry on the streaming model seem low. Based on this, my questions are: (1) Do you see the INP streaming model as favourable from a farmers perspective? (2) The Nov 2015 default of 3 contracts seemed large compared to revenue, do you foresee farmers being spooked by the legal action being taken, or is this expected? (3) Are barriers to entry low in this business model? (4) INP's annual report does not indicate the avg length of time streaming deal is in place and renewal rate of streaming contracts to date, are you able to obtain this info? (5) Lastly, INP compares itself to precious metals streamers in its Jan 2017 presentation, do you think that is a fair comparison? Thx!

Q: Hi 5i team,

Trump’s speech at his inauguration reflects his commitment to protectionism and jingoism. If his push for ‘Buy American First’ indeed becomes reality, please go through the three 5i portfolio and identify those Canadian companies whose business operations and revenue will be negatively impacted. Thanks.

Q: Could you give me your opinion and outlook
tks

Q: If trump is to spent 1 trillion to rebuild U.S. infrastructure; what two US and Canadian stocks/etfs would benefit the most? Are the buys at today's price?

Q: Hi All at 5i! What are your thoughts on Rogers sugar as far as a long term investment of an income variety? Would this be a good entry point or is it a little pricey right now? Thanks, Tamara

Q: Hello Peter, I know you like all three of these companies. My RRSP and TFSA are already well-diversified. On top of that, I'm now trying to build a non-registered account for long-term holdings (mostly solid, 'steady Eddy's' such as ATD, ENB, T, FTS). I'd like to add 2 full positions to the account. Which two of CSU, WSP and CGX would you suggest adding at this point for long-term gains, factoring in a 'sleep at night' element. (No concern over dividend rates.) Thanks for the continually excellent service! James

Q: I have 1/2 a position in EIF in my income portfolio. Since I bought it stayed flat. Should I sell, hold or increase my position? If you suggest to sell what should I buy instead.
Regards,
Jacob

Q: Hello Peter, Should have sold DH Corp sooner but will take a loss and deploy the cash to these three companies also some to TIO networks. Do these choices sound suitable to you? Herb

Q: I want to buy ENB for my TFSA but want to confirm there will not be any dividend with holding tax going on because of USA business. Can you please clarify, Thankyou JC

Q: Good morning. Can you recommend a US ETF where I could 'park' some US cash for a month or or two? And safely make some interest or dividends? Thank you!

Q: What is your current opinion of Altus Group?
Many thanks.
