Q: Hello Peter

I sold recently almost 50% of my US stocks:ADBE,AMZN,TEAM,NFLX,MA & MSFT from my unregstr. acct. and I do not want to keep cash and I do not want to buy US stocks.

Please provide me with idea of 5 Canadian stocks that are reasonably safe and be kept for 2 to 3 years, or 2 Canadian stocks very safe with little growth.

Q: Am looking at two for a company with good yield and growing dividends. Quick analysis : both have good management ; different sectors, one with oil/ gas issues and the other has risks in the housing market. Would FN follow the banks movement and how close does PKI track the oil/ gas index ? Understand PKI is in one of your models. PKI keeps hitting the $40.00 mark and has difficulty breaking out while FN has declined recently. Your choice ? Thanks. Derek

Q: I am a retired income investor. I bought NTR a few months ago to get some diversity in the materials sector and the dividend. Since then I am down about 6% which is normally an amber symbol for me but it seems to be recovering in the last few days. I am happy to hold it for the long term but I would like your thoughts. I understand it reports next week.

one of the articles in the Globe and mail financial page indicated that next year; there would not be enough supply to the used cars for sale
I already own MG and Linamar, I wonder what other stocks would be a buying opportunity based on the above imbalance of the lack of supply for used cars to
consumers, ACQ has gone up alot in a year

Q: Dear 5i team,
My TFSA is not well balanced, and I am also trying to get the allocation mix correct in my RRSP too.
I have MX in my TFSA which is $1000 in the red. I have no technology in my TFSA- would it be smart to take the MX loss to take advantage of TOI’s likely growth - while getting to a better balance in sectors at the same time?

Thank you for your thoughts on this possible tactic, appreciated!

Q: Good afternoon. I hold 2 companies from each major sector of the economy. In the Industrial sector I own shares in CNR and CP.

I am considering selling CP and replacing it with TFII for diversification purposes.

Although the capital gains hit would be large as I have held CP for over a decade would you consider this to be a wise move or a foolish one?

Many thanks in advance.

John
