Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: We are a retired couple relying on investment income after a number years of dismal results from "wealth managers". Our portfolio is likely overly aggressive with about 80% in equities and would like to move toward safer ground in 2018 focusing on companies that will be less impacted when the inevitable correction occurs. Your company review metrics include a rating based on recessionary earning and I would be very interested seeing a report of 5i coverage that includes not only the overall company ratings but all the subsequent parts.
I would also very much appreciate a few names that you feel appropriate given our circumstance and general comments. I have started a list of (flight to safety) equities that thus far includes RSI, SIS, T, GUD, FNV, ENB, TD, L. V, BA,
New site looks great and we really appreciate having real pro's to gather market insite from. Keep up the great work!

Q: I have been looking at GDI for some time. The metrics seem to be a combination of good and bad so I guess it comes down to the issue of management competency?? Like a lot of your subscribers I am a long term investor and put relatively more weight on growth as opposed to dividends. What is your latest take on GDI for a 2-3 year hold?
Thanks, Doug

Q: I am a bit light in Industrials .At 11% as opposed to 15% suggested in my Portfolio Review. I I have large positions in SIS and WSP ,quite large in NFI and growing based on the last 5i report ,and a smaller position in CAE.Sold my STN awhile back. Note you have PEO in the Growth Portfolio but it is thinly traded. So of these Industrials which would you increase so I can get closer to my 15% target. Would like to keep to the stocks listed as I am at 30 stocks and would like to keep it at that number. Great website .Thanks Paul
