Q: Hello 5i
I just noticed that in answer to a question you have put adt.ca ahead of premium brands in its category as a favourite pick. I have been worried that adt direction may be looking for a big way to make their mark in their acquisition. I have wondered whether that would bring them to abandon their usual caution. I hold pbh at now, a quite small capital gain and have been thinking about selling it. Just wondering what makes you so confident about this deal. And also, whether it is good enough to make the switch?
Thanks for this great service

Q: Hello 5i team,
In following the balanced portfolio, I have wanted to enter back into a position with Magna (MG). It seems to have hit a bottom. I know you have put it as a hold in past questions, further to that, are you still relatively far away from removing it from the portfolio? Is there still confidence as a value stock?

If any gas powered vehicle bans are lifted, would that be a further boon for the stock(although they are far away)?

Thank You,
Andrew

Q: I bought Aecon at $10.78 last year when the price dropped, offering an attractive dividend yield of almost 7%. I purchased it solely for its dividend, as part of my dividend portfolio, and did not expect much in terms of growth. Unexpectedly, to my surprise, it has become the best-performing stock in my portfolio. With the recent dividend increase, the yield now surpasses 7%. Historically, this stock has been quite volatile, with performance fluctuating. My question is: should I hold onto this dividend stock and overlook the 163% capital gain, or consider selling it and reinvesting in other dividend stocks? What is the potential here? If it reverts to its historical performance, would it be better to sell and buy other dividend stocks? Thank you for your insight.

Q: Hello Peter,
With Brookfield moving its HQ to US, does this mean we will pay with withholding tax in our TFSA account for any dividends declared? Also, should one wait before adding to BN? Given Topicus's results, would it make sense to increase one's weight to from 2 percent to 3 percent .. Lastly, if one wants to stay conservative, would it make sense to sell TOI, and LMN and just focus on CSU? Much appreciate it
