Q: Hi, I’m getting a little disappointed in oil a gas sector and really do think it is more a liability ,as time and technology eats away at the sector.
I have Tog and Wcp 7% and thinking of selling Tog with a loss of 25%, an putting it in healthcare or Tech.
Would you agree with this switch, and what would you recommend.
Thanks, Brad

Q: Hello,
I would like your opinion on this. Do you feel it is important to try and keep a certain number of stocks in your portfolio, based on the size of it of course. If you do, could you advise what "approximate number" you would have for each of following sizes of portfolios to give me a sense of how you would handle this:
-$100,000 portfolio
-$500,000 portfolio
-$1,000,000. portfolio
-$1,500,000. portfolio

Thank you
Margaret

Q: Hello,
I recall recently reading a reply you had given to someone who asked about a list of "forever" stocks that you had recommended in 2016. The stocks were: BNS, BCE, ENB, T, CSU, FTS, BEP, AQN, OPTEX, PBH. They asked if you would still recommend these and you said "yes" and that there were some additional names you would add.
Could you pls advise what these additional names would be.
Thank you
Margaret

Q: Greetings 5i team:

Can you please suggest 3 stocks on a valuation basis that still have a good balance sheet that you consider have the best potential over the long term. If you can draw them from the mid-cap or larger dividend paying universe so much the better, irrespective of sector. Finally, if you could highlight what you see as the biggest risk for each?

Thank-you,
