Q: Greetings. CBL, MKP, FC all pay a great dividend, but have lost Cap value over the past year or so. Forward trending does not indicate much value appreciation. Should I be concerned with this sector of altrenative lenders to the major banks. Sell or hold ? Other options to consider. ie some growth expectation and a reasonable div or say +4%
Thanks

Q: My question is on the private placement news issued today. I'm curious why anyone would buy shares in the private placement issued at $7.50 when they can just buy shares on the open market currently under $7.00. Am I missing something or is it a way for a shareholder to purchase a large amount of stock without driving up the price to much?

Q: My portfolio is light in the financial sector (CXI) and and I was thinking of adding GS at about half position (25K) to my RRSP and/or cash account for at least a 5 year hold, likely much longer. Although the yield is very attractive, I would prefer more growth. I am about 5 years from retirement and will be fully funded from other sources. I have slightly above moderate risk tolerance. Please suggest 2-3 stocks from each Canada and US, and if possible provide a rating. Thanks.

Q: I'm a dividend growth investor. I purchased MHLD a little over a year ago because of their nice yield and dividend growth. I'm a bit concerned now because the stock price has been a freefall since Feb and because there was no dividend increase announced for 2018-Q1. All previous increases were in Q1. I would appreciate your take on the company and opinion on their dividend sustainability. Is a dividend cut on the horizon?

Q: Dear 5i
I`ve read a few times that you`ve mentioned EBIX as one of your favourite US stocks . I`ve looked at it in some detail and agree that it looks impressive . My only concern is its debt level and a relatively high short position. Do these metrics concern you at all ?
I`m considering FLIR and GRMN as well and was wondering if you could rate these three stocks best to worst .
Thanks
