Q: Hi guys,

I have both companies a while, costco (6% of portfolio) and atd.b (2.5% of portfolio). Inside "your" balance portfolio would you recommend approximately 4% in both??

Thanks

Jim

Q: I am having trouble deciding whether to buy Costco or ATD.A. Which in your opinion is the better of the two and why or would you recommend a half position in each? thanks in advance for your insight

Q: Portfolio Analytics indicates that, across all accounts, we are significantly underweight in the Basic Materials sector. The stocks and ETF noted above are the only holdings in this sector. (CGL.C is quite a small holding.)

Please suggest at least five additional Canadian stocks in this sector to improve diversification, include a reasonable entry point, and rank them in order of what to purchase first.

Thanks

Q: Hello Peter and 5i team,
My TFSA contains the aforementioned stocks in roughly even percentages except for nominal investments in Park Lawn and DRX. I would like to make my annual contribution to one or some of these companies and would like to know what your order of preference would be for buys/adds at this time. Please also include Celestica in your considerations.
Also, are there any companies in this list that you would consider undervalued at this time?
Thank you.

Q: As they are both Caterpillar dealers serving different geographical areas, do you ever see these companies merging into one? Would a merger not create cost savings via synergies, increased capital pool etc for expansion and growth etc ultimately benefiting the shareholders of the combined company. . Thanks for the great service you provide.

Q: Please send 3 stock picks for TFSA

Q: Is AIR Canada a buy. It looks cheap. US Airlines have been reporting good earnings. Will AC report a good Quarter ?It has a lot of International travelers .

Is the problem that there are so many Airlines to consider that AC is at the bottom of the pile and has little interest to the investor and then only to Canadian Investor and not USA investor ? When is next quarter coning ? Thanks a lot RAK

Q: Market caps in the US surpass 1 Trillion. What companies do you see in Canada getting close to 250B or 500B market cap? Is that possible or is the market too small and these mega caps will only be found in the US.

Q: I am looking to initiate a 2.5% position in one of these two companies, in order to increase the industrial component of my portfolio. Both have received favourable commentary by 5i. Looking at a five-year time horizon, which one would be deemed to be the more prudent position to initiate?

Q: Hello 5i
I cannot find Ross's question from Jan 24 on sector allocation. In fact, I believe that sector allocation questions and answers are filtered out of 5i data banks. Questions from users on this topic may appear in the morning and then magically removed by afternoon. Is this a systematic removal on your part?
Please share Ross's question and your answer with me. I am interested in these questions and would rather see them than not.
Tia!

Q: In answer to my question from Jan 16, you reported the yearly change in the indices, but not the total composite return including dividends. Would you be able to provide this information? Thanks for the great service.

Q: Hi I have my RRSP distributed at around 8% or 12% on these stocks, would you change anything , I'm heading to retirement in 7 months from now and like to know if you would recommend any modification. I can sustain drops of 10% , which I handle by doing nothing.
Thank you 5i, you have been good to me!!!

Q: Good morning, as a follow up to my question on resource stocks, may you kindly rank in terms of preference which ones you would buy today? Thank you

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

Many times when you are asked for a good dividend stock for a long term hold QSR makes the cut. Today Marco asked for top 5 consumer discretionary names, it did not make that cut while AW.UN and PLC did. Do you view QSR less positively than those names?
Thanks for all you do
