Q: The Federal, Ontario and Quebec governments have all announced significant infrastructure spending in their budgets. This should be good for infrastructure companies. Which stock do you think is most promising for a new position? I have held WSP in the past and was surprised to see it down 1% today despite the positive news. At a PE of 47.6X is does not look cheap.

Q: Both of these issues have share prices which have taken severe hits recently and at least superficially appear to reflect the worst outcome from known difficulties. The question I would like you to address is; in your opinion and in the absence of new circumstances does the current valuation of each equity fully account for/ discount all the known issues each company faces? i.e. Do the present prices represent a reasonably reliable floor.

Q: Hello 5i,
I own these four industrial stocks. Could you please rank them for growth?
Do you feel it necessary to own all of them or is it logical to consolidate.
Lastly, are there any US names you would rank higher than these?
Thanks for you insight!

Q: I've been a thankful investor and long time fan of Magna but it's had many small problems and now maybe a big one if Tesla's startling production innovations and in-house sourcing policy are correctly reported onYou Tube. MG's strong point has also been innovation but Tesla is setting a fast pace and reportedly already miles ahead, maybe to the point of sustainable market dominance. Magna is $57.00 off it's high -is it worth switching to Tesla or do you see a Magna rebound? I can handle volatility in a five year time frame.

Q: Everyone, interest rates move in a wave pattern. When the Fed wants to reduce inflation they increase the interest rate and when inflation declines to their range of near 2% they reduce the Fed rate. This past year - ish the Fed has significantly increased the rate from near zero and recently they have slowed the rate increases. Soon they will stop the increases, then no increases and then reduce the interest rate. The time frame of the holding pattern and declines is dependent on inflation. What does that mean in general for the economy and more specifically for the technology sector. Clayton

Q: Nvidia has quickly become 5% of my portfolio. I love the firm but it's been a meteoric recovery. In 2-3 years do you see it higher or is it time to take some off the table? Same question for WSP which has doubled for me now representing 4.68%

I know allocations are personal - just looking for how you manage your winners. I typically have a 6% max threshold on any one stock.
