Q: Hello 5i,
I will be doing a bit of rebalancing and could initiate either a half a position in any two of these names or a full position in one of them.
Dividend safety is paramount with dividend growth secondary to that. From a rebalancing perspecive, TRI would be the most beneficial to add.
All transactions within a TFSA.
So, my questions are:
1. Is now a good time to add to any/all of these?
2. What ranking would you give them in terms of dividend safety?
3. What ranking for dividend growth?
4. What ranking for equity growth?
Please deduct as many credits as you feel are appropriate.
Thanks!!!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: With the recent market correction, I have several stocks that are down quite significantly and others that stayed flat or went up a little. This involves that the weightings changed quite a bit for some stocks. I know 5i isn't a big fan of averaging down, but in such context what would be your advice? I have the followings (%loss, weight) :
SIS (-19%, 4%)
PHO(-41%, 1.7%)
KXS(-10%, 3.3%)
NFI(-32%, 2.6%)
PBH(-28%, 3.4%)
TOY(-23%, 2.5%)
MX(-22%, 3.1%)
I currently have 13% cash and would consider reducing it to 7-8%. My sectors are well diversified. Which of the above would be your favorites today for a position increase?

Thank you!

Q: Here is a Podcast of some people who went to all of Aphria's business locations and what they found out through their investigations about Aphria. This is somewhat disturbing and destructive information about Aphria.

Q: Hi guys
I have held Saputo for a very long time and done very well on it and appreciate its relative stability. However it has not done much the last few years except gradually trend lower, plus it would appear the milk/cheese market is always affected by trade/tariff issues out of control of the company. I have to say when I listen to Lino Saputo on conference calls he is very impressive how he knows the most intricate details about what drives his operations. What do you think would be a catalyst for Saputo to move forward in the next few years. A 2nd question relates to Premium Brands and given its drop in price over the last while would it make sense to sell my Saputo and bus Premium Brands as a replacement. I always worry that with a loss of a big contract like Starbucks the stock price might just fall away and that has kept me out of it, but of course they have continued to do well.

Thanks

Stuart

Q: Hi Guys - I am looking for 2-3 "core" ideas to invest in for the next 3-5 years to provide solid gains but also a couple of potential "home runs" - ideas that can go up 2-5x (but obviously have risk associated). Which names are you most excited about?

Thanks in advance,

Dave
