Q: hi
do you see any data/signs of money flows out of US markets. I am wondering if there is the start of loss of confidence in the US markets for foreign investors (and domestic) vis a vis the current government?
Further, where do you see money flowing into right now or shortly ( China, Europe/Germany, Canada )?
cheers, Chris

Q: Which REITs are most affected by potential exit of HBC? Would this have any significant effect on remaining retailers of clothing and textiles. I was once told by retail analyst there is significant over capacity in retail floor space devoted to clothing.

Q: In the context of Return on Equity (ROE), what is the ideal ROE? I am asking because, when we examine company profiles, we can see significant differences in companies’ ROE. For example, here are the figures for: RY-CA 14%, DOL-CA 104%, and HD-US 405%. Why is there such a disparity? Thank you

Q: Good day, 5i Team,

Do we have any Canadian stocks that might benefit from increased military spending?

Q: In a TFSA, I am down ~30% in both HPS.A and DOO, both of which were smaller positions and now both represent ~0.5% of total equity holdings (so ~1% combined).

If the goal was absolute growth over the long term with a high risk tolerance would you continue to hold or sell at a loss these two securities?

If you were to sell please rank from high to low which of the current securities in the account you would recommend.

Q: Hi Peter,

I would like to get your thoughts on CNR and ENGH. I am long CNR and would like to reduce it and add to my position in ENGH. My views are that I get more growth from ENGH and 4.5% dividend vs. CNR call it a 2.5% dividend. I know they are different businesses but comparing the two companies what provides more growth and income opportunity.

Thanks

Q: I have small positions in both TFII and AND (about 2% each) and looking to add to them (long-term positions so not worried about near-term uncertainty, I'm sure they'll both be fine over the long-term).

I'm thinking TFII is the safer bet (cheaper, larger, much longer-term track record) but AND's smaller size and less-levered balance sheet might allow it to make more meaningful acquisitions for higher growth.

What are your thoughts, which would you favour more for a young long-term investor?
