Q: I held atd.b (Couche-Tard)since 2009 with significant gain but it is still within 5% of my portfolio as I have not added to it. I had a discussion with a Montreal Portfolio Manager about Couche-Tard today at a meeting. He told me 3 out of the 4 founders at Couche-Tard have or retiring from the company. While these folks have retired they have not sold their own shares yet. This mutual fund PM have existed their position in their fund and moved on to a similar U.S. company. Should I take some profit by reducing my position or exit my position? The security is held in my RRSP.

Q: Greetings Team 5i,
With it looking like an increase in interest rates coming soon, and understanding that insurance companies appreciate higher interest rates, I would like to add to my holdings in that sector. I realize you like Sun Life SLF and I'm thinking of taking a position but I'm also interested in Fairfax Financial FFH. I would appreciate your opinion of FFH and the wisdom of taking a position in it at this time.
As always, thanks for your guidance.

I have a few SJR.B shares that I have held for a number of years now and am taking of switching them for Telus for growth. Do you see any problems with that?
Also for a two to three year time frame who do you think offer the best outlook for growth/returns between STN and WSP?

Thanks and good luck for the remainder of the ride.

Q: I sold POT yesterday, made a decent profit and of course rec'd the dividends. I am wondering if I should deploy the capital to something you could suggest that has the safety with growth or should I wait until you offer your investment service. Do you expect that to be this month or a later time frame? Thanks again.

Q: Hello 5i team,
How do you explain the steady drop in share value despite a good quarterly report and a good order backlog that would suggest a good next quarter?
Greetings,

Q: ATP
What do you think about ATP as a buy. It dropped 32% today because of a big dividend cut and ? Is this an overreaction that is presenting a good buying opportunity or something else?

Q: Hi 5i,
I noticed on my statements this year that BIP.UN charges me a fee with each quarterly distribution. I suspect this must have something to do with the limited partnership structure but am puzzled why I would receive a distribution and get charged a fee simultaneously. As an investor who tries to minimize fees, your input is much appreciated.
Best wishes,

Q: re: LNR

Saw your comment a few days ago. I am seriously considering a position in Linamar because I believe the auto industry has a bright future in the next couple of years and I feel Magna is a little pricey at it's current levels which leaves Linamar as an alternative for getting involved.

I think I know the answer to your opinion re: my comment on a the bright future. Do you think my comment on Magna is accurate? And with keeping in mind the Sept market blues (as usual) we are seeing right now, would your advice be to buy Linamar now, wait and see or not buy?

Stock is up today 1.52%

Thanks for all you do
