Q: Both PBH and PLC don't seem to want to recover from their poor recent performance despite each having had decent quarters. Investors just don't seem interested in them and I am also becoming less so and thinking of selling at a loss. Is there a case for continuing to hold?
Thanks for your advice.

Q: Given the current direction of the Canadian economy, my goal is to focus the majority of my investments in the US. According to Portfolio Analytics, currently 53% of my portfolio is US, 46% Canadian (the remainder being international). I believe my US holdings are significantly under-rated given the Canadian stocks I hold. I would appreciate ballpark figures regarding the US/international component of the following TSX listed stocks: WSP, TFII, BIPC, BEPC, BAM, BN, and HPS.A. This will enable me to get a better handle on what my actual US/international holdings are. Thank you.

Q: I would like to buy ATD (as 5i's stated: it is a great name at a discount price), and have long appreciated its growth trajectory and management seems very astute. However, in order to buy, I would need to sell something and since I am overweight Industrials, the name I come up with in my holdings is WSP. Which of the two names would you favour for a 5 year hold? My hesitation is what I understand to be a growing industrialization in Can and the US favouring WSP. Thoughts on this switch?

Q: Hello, wondering if you have any insight into this drama at GIL? Both sides seem to have very good arguments to support their side. On the company side, it appears that that the former CEO was acting in his own interests and diversions. On the Browning side, it seems this new GIL CEO has a poor track record. Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Q: I subscribe to your Portfolio Tracking and Analysis service and would like to suggest adding a feature to help clients such as myself who manage multiple accounts. (In my case, I manage registered and cash accounts for both myself and my husband,) It would be immensely useful to be able to track performance over time and compare it to the TSX, S&P and NASDAQ - both on an individual account basis and on a total account basis. Is this something 5i might be open to providing?

Q: Hello Peter and team

To complement my all ETFs portfolio : VEQT 40%, QQQ 10%, VGT 10%, MOAT 10%, I intend to add 6 of the above 7 stocks for 5% each.
Does it make sense, please feel free to substitute and suggest other stocks and explain why.
This is for a 10 years hold with minimum or no trading in this account.
Thank you
