Q: Hello -
I am considering selling my Diageo PLC stock and replacing it with either ADW.A or CSW.A for currency/account reasons. Which of those two makes the best long term investment for a dividend growth investor.
Thanks.
Jim

Q: Hi 5i: The stock market situation has changed a lot since I last did any rebalancing. Could you therefore tell me what weights you would now recommend for the 10 TSX sectors. Also, what sectors would you assign to MAL and BOS which Morningstar calls Basic Materials, and to DRT which Morningstar calls Services. Many thanks.
Q: On Nov 20, 2015 you replied to Herbert "Because the Caisse's interest is directly into a subsidiary, there is not dilution in the usual sense in terms of shares issued. BBD will get capital, and simply own less of the unit. BBD has also asked the Federal government for money."
1) I am trying to understand. If BBD own less, doesn't that mean BBD shareholders will own less, get less of the revenue/earnings pie and in the end, result in some of shareholder dilution?
2) Additionally, I have to believe that with all the money this company is getting from government bodies that this will also create further dilution (unless it is money that is invested to protect jobs..) ?
Thanks.

Q: In a response to Paul today, you described CSU as a template on how to run a company. Can you list a few other companies, perhaps in other sectors that you view as extraordinarily well run, whether their share prices reflect this or not?
Thanks for your wonderful service.

Q: With the Caisse (Quebec)taking a .30% interest in Bombardier's rail unit, I feel the Quebec government is taking control of Bombardier with also the interest in the C series Airplane. Thus, how does this affect the shareholders, and is it a dilution of shareholders interest (shares)?

Q: I think I may have experience a time out, so apologize if i have dupliacted this.
Not a question, but a comment in response to the posting of the Globe and Mail article referring to ``PHM in Steep decline``. First off, this article may be misleading to members as it was written on Oct.19th. The SP for PHM has increased since then and by roughly 30% in the last 5 days. I am quite pleased with this as I thought I was fortunate when I had a buying opportunity at $.63. You can imagine my chagrin when the price maintained its downward spiral and hit a low of $.44. I held for the same reason I bought. Despite the ugly series of events that precipitated the downward trend, I felt the fundamentals supported the thesis that this stock was unjustly oversold. I experienced the same scenario with Concordia. I excitedly bought CXR at $54. Then, out of a sense of recouping some of my loss, I bought at $45. We all know the story, and I feel fortunate to have bought my last lot at $30. By doing so, I was able to average my cost to $44. Today the stock is over $50. I only wish I had the fortitude to have bought at its ``bottom`` of $25. Needless to say, during a negative Market backdrop, I am thankful that I maintained my confidence in the fundamentals of these two stocks and feel they both have tremendous upside. Thank you to 5i for your guidance in teaching us to recognize true fundamentals, and my simple message to other new investors and members of 5i … try not to be overly swayed by all that is written by the `` Talking Heads``
Thank you, Rick

Do you have any advice on ditching these losers? Specifically, should I 1) sell today at market, having decided I don't like them; 2) set a good-till-cancel limit sell order at a better price; or 3) sell in the new year in the hopes of a bounce post-tax-loss-selling season? Or something else. I'm happy to be patient short-term but want them gone by February. Thanks for this great service.

Q: Thank you for your recent article on Call Options.
1. Would you be willing to share with us which online trading platform you use to execute your call option trades?
2. Could you briefly explain if and how the call option premium income would affect the T1153 filings each year?
3. You mention that because of 5i no-conflict rules, you only invest in non-Canadian securities. Will this method work as well on Canadian stocks and would you be able to provide some good safe Canadian names for a beginner start with? If so, would you still use the same online trading platform for Canadian trades?
Thank you again,
