Q: Both MDA and PLI have reached new 52 week lows. You have always considered MDA to be a solid company and have given it an "A" rating. Given the current situation, would you consider that things have substantially changed with the MDA outlook or is this actually a buying opportunity?
I also have the same question for PLI, but someone else has already mentioned about the Seeking Alpha comments. Which leads me to ask your opinion of the quality of comments, generally on Seeking Alpha. Weren't they also beating up certain stocks for short selling?

Q: Hi, I have roughly about 120k in a resp for my two children who are 14 and 12. I went to cash before election unfortunately in hindsight as it was 75% index funds and 25 percent bond funds. Going forward, as there are 4 years remaining before university I want to remain somewhat defensive but still have growth as I believe the markets will continue higher over the next couple years as The big Fed day is over, and markets remain resilient. I was thinking about zwb,Zwu for defence and income...7% yield, at 30 k each. Zsp for us market and currency exposure at 30k. mg and gud at 15 k each for some growth. Am I being to aggressive at 5 years away from university? Do you recommend any changes to this approach? Thanks for your opinion and advice and Merry Christmas!

Q: Hi team,

Just happily renewed my 5i membership. Thanks for all that you guys do.

I'd like (and value) your opinion on the best portfolio-tracking websites, that also have intelligent and independent analysis (market and individual stocks), current stock news (not spam), and strong stock screening/filters etc. Would need to track both US and Canadian stocks of course. Was thinking Morningstar. Is it worth paying for their premium service ($325/3 years)? Any other sites I should be considering? I use Google Finance now and, other than the ability to download my portfolios and view all lists on one page, am not happy with the stock "news" they push. Lots of crap.

Thanks,

Q: Hi, have been thinking of selling Csh bought at 11.60,because of poor showing,and has been lowered from buy to hold.I also have Sia,Gud,Crh for a 8% sector weight.
Would you be fine with selling or keep holding,I do need the dividend.
Also if I sell could you give me 2 or 3 dividend replacements,don't worry about sector.
Thanks for your advice
