Q: On January 12/21 you picked TRI over TIH. Throwing TFII into the pot which would you pick now for steady growth with a 3 to 5 year hold? Would you please rank for the greatest capital gain and least volatility. Thank you and have a very merry Christmas.

Q: Hi!
I am thinking about investing in L. Is now (the waning days of 2021) a good time? Or should I wait a bit? L seems to have spiked over the last months....

Q: I am looking at sector diversification and was considering CN or CP with a starting position. Do you favour either one of these entities for longterm growth (10 year)?

Q: On December 13th, Keith asked you to recommend your top 10 US non tech growth equities. May you rank the 10 in order of compelling buys at today’s prices.
Thank you

Q: Everyone,
My investment strategy is rather simple, buy the best of the best stocks and wait, wait, and wait. I haven’t sold stocks in more than three years. In order to sell I wait until something fundamental have changed. Time is on my side for gains. But should I think about other trading strategies, such as puts / calls etc etc … ?

Q: What do you consider a poor, ok, good, and very good return (ranges please) for a diversified portfolio over a 5-10 year period? I want to understand the comparative performance of my portfolios, which I have been holding for 7-12 years now. My portfolios are not similar.

Q: Stelco today announced a Dutch auction for approx 10% of its shares . The price would be between 31 and 37 dollars. The price today is around 39.
They can’t be serious , is it a way to attract attention ?

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I am looking to invest approx. $6k in my TFSA and approx. $28K in my RRSP for Jan/Feb of 2022. My potential stock picks for each account are:

TFSA - AT, TOI, CJT
RRSP - T, BEP.UN, BAMR, SJ

I am leaning more towards T & BEP.UN for my RRSP since I do not have much exposure to Utilities in my overall portfolio exposure (Tip my hat to your Potfolio Tracking for pointing that out!)

I am leaning towards adding to AT (I already own a significant amount of shares but I am extremely tempted by the current stock price) or CJT since I believe the potential ecommerce headwinds for the company will be significant over the next few years.

If you could rank or provide your thoughts on these companies in this current (depressing) market environment it would be of great help. If you have better candidates to look at that would also be welcome. Plan to hold for 5 to 10yrs.

I am new to this service but just wanted to say that I have been very impressed with 5i so far. I appreciate all the work you do for DIY investors and wish you and your staff a Merry Christmas and a better new year.

Thank you in advance.

Q: I am putting together a list of stocks to purchase in my TFSA for a 10 year hold. I am a very conservative investor and want income and some growth from my TFSA.
What companies would you add or delete from this list? Should I include a few US names?

Thank you.

Q: CN went down quite a bit more than CP today - any particular reason?

Q: I have losses as follows for potential tax loss selling:
AQN 18%
BEP.UN 24%
SJ 14%
What can you recommend as suitable proxies until repurchase, or which ones would you not repurchase (leaving their "proxies" in the portfolio).
Thanks, and I wish everyone on the team, and your readers, Merry Anytime and Happy Always.

Q: Good Morning, I am under weight in base material and Consumer defensive. My list of current holding is below. I am looking to put some money in these sectors to bring my sector allocation as suggested by your Portfolio Analytics.
The time period to hold is long term 5 year plus. Growth stocks preferred. Kindly recommend

1. Should I add to current position or if there are better opportunities kindly recommend them
2. If some of these needs to be replaced with better growth stocks , kindly suggest the same

Q: Regarding my Dec.17 question on this company, when I asked earlier for the outlook I meant that of the fundamentals, please provide the 5i view. At a sub 10 P/E for the Non-Voting would this be a buy at $175 compared to competitors?

Q: Good morning and best wishes for Christmas/Holidays. What would be your opinion on this company as a infrastructure play?

Thanks for all the great service

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Just a comment. Your response to Dennis on December 18th regarding to what happened to the markets from 1990 to present (technology in relation to yields) is the best i have seen and somewhat comforting that investing in companies like Amazon , Google, etc makes sense. Thanks for the perspective.

Q: I am looking for a fourth reit for my real estate portfolio, but have a strong interest in L. Could L be considered a real estate investment?
