Q: I intend to take some money out of a savings account and put it into 3 or 4 rock solid (what a concept) TSX stocks earning divis
in the 3 - 5% range and looking at a 2 - 3 yr horizon. Would really like to see a list of stocks (with ratings) that you think would meet my requirement. Thanks again.

Q: Hi guys
I should have added one of these about 2 years ago but unfortunately did not. Looking at their trading price today, and as a long term hold for at least 5 years which stock would you buy today. Looking at about a 4% weight in a diversified portfolio.

Q: I am considering selling Badger to buy New Flyer Ind. as I believe NFI has better prospects over the new year or two. Would you agree? There is only a small capital gain on BAD and the portfolio is otherwise balanced.

Q: Thank you 5i for your excellent service!!!

I have divided up my portfolio into thirds.
One third is a diverse group of ETFs.
One third is cash and a group fluid group of stocks made up primarily from stocks you recommend. SJ, CCL, SIS, KXS... etc.
One third is made up of the seven stocks listed above. Do you have any concerns about any of these being a long term hold. I know Magna is cyclical but is that a concern?
Cheers,
Bryan

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
I manage an income oriented account which closely tracks the 5i Income Portfolio. However within that account I do have a small basket of more growthy but still steady eddy names with position weights of 2% each. The idea is to squeeze out a bit more return than just income stocks over time. The present holdings are GUD, SIS, ESL, SYZ, BCI, PKI. I was thinking of adding FSV and DSG to this group. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. DL

Q: Hi 51 Guys
One of my mainstays is Stella Jones but I have been comparing others in the same sector. What are your thoughts on Harwoods Distribution and Luxor Industrial Corp?

THANKS!

Q: Hello Peter,
Mr. Seymour Schulich, continues to increase his holdings in Birchcliff Energy. Do you see this as a good sign to enter the name? It has risen quite a bit so am a bit reluctant. Do you still like Gold standard ventures and lastly would you consider Vermilion energy as a conservative play on energy? My concern is that it dropped quite a bit from a few years ago and is recovering very slowly. At the current rate, can you see the stock doubling in atleast 5 years. Thanks

Q: Friaday all these canadian lumber companies' stock prices jumped up.... but there seems to be NO news to support this... Is there some reson for it : seasonality, or insider information, or some trade news that brokers dont give but that some are privileged to.
