Q: I bought MFI for a variety of shorter term and medium term reasons including African swine flu in China and Asia affecting the price of pork and their aggressive move into plant protein seemingly still at an opportune time overall. The recent earnings seem to confirm not only this, but very good news overall for an otherwise steady eddy type business. Long intro I know, but how do you see earnings and the outlook overall for a longer term hold? Thank-you.

Q: Hi,

Quick thoughts on these companies. I'm doing some clean up and these positions are under 1% in my portfolio. Which ones would you continue to hold, add to or just sell? Can you please rank. I have a diversified portfolio. Thanks!

Q: I have gains that account for two 8% positions in my TFSA in both CGI Group and Restaurant Brands. I was thinking of selling either CGI Group or Restaurant Brands and replacing that one position with three smaller positions in Constellation Software, Enbridge and Brookfield Infrastructure.

Would this be a move you endorse to increase dividend income and eps growth potential, and if so which of CGI Group or Restaurant Brands would you sell?

Thanks.

John

Q: Does the recent partnership Imperial Brands and an investment of $123 million change your outlook on Auxly ?
"Imperial Brands PLC (Imperial) is pleased to announce a research and development partnership with Auxly Cannabis Group Inc. (Auxly), a listed Canadian cannabis company. As part of the transaction Imperial will invest CAD123 million (£75 million) by way of a convertible debenture and grant Auxly global licences to its vaping technology and access to its innovation business Nerudia."
If so, please elaborate.
Thank-you

Q: Dear 5i,

I am finally re-balancing some of my portfolio by selling some of my Canadian bank stocks (where I was seriously over weighed). The cash will be reinvested to fill 3 Canadian industry holes I need to fill. From most to least deficits are Consumer Defensive, Consumer Cyclical, and Basic Materials. The only stock I currently own that matches any of those 3 categories is AW.UN. Could you please suggest some quality Canadian stocks to buy to fill each of those 3 holes ? I am a 53 year old conservative investor trying to balance dividend and some growth for long term in stocks that have the brightest futures. I really appreciate your wisdom.
-Nick
