Q: Re Company information
In comparing an annual information form and a management information circular for an annual meeting, is the latter comprehensive? If not, what type of information is only found in the AIF?

Q: Michaels question on June 30 regarding portfolio watching.I think most subscribers watch these/their portfolios on a daily basis (I know I do) but if a person feels they are becoming obsessed with stock watching I think looking at the Portfolio Performance (monthly) reports that you send out. These results (1,2,3 years) speak volumes for themselves. A 10 or 16 % return on a portfolio is beyond expectations and hopefully leads to confidence in 5i's direction ...if we listen.
Q: I apologies; I mis-phrased my question. The DRIP investments would be in addition to the TFSA and RSP investments (in different securities). As I understand things, a DRIP with a company sponsored plan such as TRP thru Computershare cannot be held inside a registered account. Is this correct? If so the $5k position in the non-registered (DRIP) account would not amount to a $25k per stock concentration and I believe the dividend tax credit would be useful since the account is non-registered. Thank you for your suggestions and service. I like your suggestions but a little surprised that a utility such as FTS was not recommended. Is there a reason you would not suggest a utility DRIP for a long term hold? Jim.
Q: Hi there, not really a stock specific question but more a psychological/behavioural question. Based on your experience, how often should one look at their portfolio? I, probably like many others, look at my portfolio far too frequently. I suspect this can be stress inducing and can lead to more possible losses than gain? How often do you recommend one to look at their portfolios? Thanks!

Q: I currently hold a full position of BPY in a taxable account.
An overweight position of BIP and a half position of BEP in
a non taxable account. The three comprise sixteen percent
of my total portfolio. I have sizable gains in both BPY and BIP.
Too many eggs in Brookfield companies? What would you
suggest as a reasonable percentage and how would you rank
the companies as to quality?
Thank you for considering my question(s)

Q: Hi Peter, This company pays a high dividend, but looking at the balance sheet 83% of its assets are goodwill and intangibles. What are the long term prospects of this company and is the dividend safe?
Q: I noticed that WEF (Western Forest Products) hit a new 52 week high on fairly significant volume. This even comes after news of increased US tariffs on Canadian lumber. I haven't been a shareholder in WEF in years as I grew frustrated with it being stuck in a trading range for a long time. Is this the opportunity to jump back in?
Q: Hi 5i: I bought MG and MRE about 6 months ago. MG is now down a little and MRE is up over 30%. I know that both have interests in Europe, and that MRE went through a rough patch with management issues, as well as some plant problems, both now behind them. Does this explain the recent difference, or is there some other explanation? The news on the auto parts sector is not particularly rosy, and I've been thinking about a switch to some other sector. What do you think? Sell both, sell one (which one?) or just hold tight? I'd appreciate your advice.
Q: I am down 31% on this stock-Any hope of recovering or I should sell.Thank you.ebrahim
Q: What sector would you advise to look for some growth without huge risk. Excluding tech, which is clearly hated right now.
Q: During a serious market correction should a rebalancing happen?When the rebound in stocks eventually occurs you have less in stocks as the assets have been reallocated to bonds and cash. Therefore you will never fully recover. Should there be a waiting period?
Q: There appears to be some traction to Urban Transit Systems moving to the Westport Fuel Systems near zero NOx emission engines for their buses. As this name has fallen a lofty amount in the past few years, do you see any embers in the ashes.

Q: Is there any advantage to use a fixed income ETF instead of using an account at Tangerine that pays 2%?
If there is, what would you suggest to use in the fixed income part (which is close to nil) of my unregistered portfolio?
