Q: I have owned this stock for a long time and it now accounts for 6% of my portfolio. I normally trim around that percentage unless the stock is seen as having continued growth and reasonable stability. I see that it is over 6% in the 5i income portfolio. However, I still bear the battle scars from a couple of past short reports on this company and although it has obviously recovered from those attacks, I can't help but wonder if something/someone is lurking in the weeds. I know you don't have a crystal ball but given its history, would you be comfortable letting this company grow to a 7% level which is about the max for me?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Greetings,

Do you think charting a 200 day SMA and 50 day SMA over 5 years continues to be useful or less so in these volatile times when it's challenging for a line chart to settle down?

Maybe connected, Is there a way of knowing how many individual retails investors are now trading as opposed to 6 years ago? i.e I am wondering if the many who started trading many small amounts for free are making the market more fickle and unstable? (If they still existed, I would ask my shoe shine boy if he had any stock tips!)

Cheers

Q: In diversified registered portfolios I am underwater (16%-35%) for these 4 holdings. Are any of these likely to enter positive territory in the next 12 months? In what order would I sell these? Many thanks for a great service.

Q: I have some holdings in these stocks in non registered accounts at significant losses. At this time, would you recommend taking losses on these to trade for others? I don't mind switching sectors if you feel that future potential is understated, for example, compared to Shopify or Celestica or others.

Q: I'm looking to close out some minor gaps in my portfolio & I would really appreciate your view on TMX & Loblaws (obviously 2 very different companies). Are you currently liking them? Would you buy today? Are there other alternatives in their sector or industry that you would prefer instead? As always, thank you for your great advice.
