Which of these three offer the best growth potential over the next 5 years and why ? I can handle moderate risk. Which offers the best entry price ? Are there other CDN listed insurance companies I should consider ?
Thanks. Derek.

Q: Do you know anywhere I could park some UK Sterling and gain some interest while it sits? Maybe a low cost ETF or something?
Thank you

Q: I want to buy one of the big banks for a 10 year hold and I'm leaning toward BNS. I'm dependent upon some fixed income so need either the yield, or combo of yield/growth. Which bank would you suggest. Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i team,
I listened to the Propel conference call yesterday and two things I found interesting: 1) their dividend payout ratio is 22-23%. They mentioned there lots of room for growth. 2) Fintech adoption in Canada is only around 14%; which is much lower than other western countries. What are your thoughts on PRL going forward?
Thank you for the great service.

Q: I have been adding to my positions in PRL around current levels thinking that the results looked good and future growth prospects were promising. So I thought.
Yet while I have been buying PRL shares I notice that there has been heavy selling of shares by company insiders. I realize that shares could be sold for various reasons by cooperate insiders but my sense is that selling by insiders around the current share price has been extreme. It does not appear to be a vote of confidence in future growth prospects by company insiders. What do they know that we do not? I would appreciate your comments. If insiders are heavily selling the shares at current levels, why should we be buying or holding the shares.

Q: Hi Team,

I am watching Gsy shares fall after beating on earnings. Any idea why the shares are selling off after what seems to be great results? Also ; has there been any speculation yet of who will get the new CEO role? And also do you feel it’s possible Mullins is leaving due to a possible upcoming “taking private “ of the company? I found it odd for him to leave at this stage just when Gsy seems to be growing its scale at an exponential rate. Thanks
