Q: At 60 I suddenly find myself semi-retired. Although it's a few years earlier than anticipated, I'm actually pretty excited - I've used the CRA retirement calculator (an excellent tool) and have a solid plan. I do need to make a $150,000 RRSP account last until I am 70 when I plan on applying for CPP and OAS. I want to pull $18,000 per year from the RRSP account a so it does require some growth. Can you suggest a mix of US and Canadian holdings and or etf's (about 50% allocation each country) for such a scenario? Thanks so much.

Q: I would like to express my gratitude for your advice regarding not selling Aritzia stock before earnings. At the time, I was primarily concerned with safeguarding my gains. You wisely emphasized that quarterly results should not be the sole factor in determining buy and sell decisions. Now, I fully appreciate the correctness of your advice. I held onto my position and refrained from purchasing a protective put. Recent news indicates that Aritzia is aggressively expanding its presence in the US, signaling further growth. As a result, I am still enjoying a remarkable 100% gain on this stock. Thank you once again!

Q: Hello,
I thought given the news about Goeasy's ceo change (uncertainty) would have moved some investors to propel holdings.. Also, what is holding the stock back? The market is moving higher today but propel is hardly moving... also, any news on Topicus.. The stock is at a standstill with few trades taking it higher than it dips again.. is it becoming a trading stock

Q: Hello. I’ve been holding Magna for a couple of years and the stock is down 44%. It represents 1.2% of my portfolio. Would you recommend selling and if so what is another stock in the same sector that might offer a better potential?

Q: Hello 5i,

I am 27 years old. I have approx. $100,000 to start a portfolio. I have established with two positions thus far - 5% each in ATZ & BAM. Considering my age, what companies would you suggest I add keeping in mind my focus being a long term growth with a set-it-and-forget-it strategy?

If possible I would like some good dividend generation names which hopefully do not sacrifice some reasonable capital gains.

If you could suggest which of the recommendations would be better suited (tax wise) to put into my TFSA and why that is so, that would be appreciated.



Thank you Peter & Team


-Andrew

Q: I have had the stocks above for long enough to watch them go up and then retreat dramatically after their last quarterly reports. Any thoughts on if taking advantage of the dip with these three is a good strategy or just hold what I have currently? All are underweight in my portfolio. Thanks.

Q: My wife and I hold a blend of mainly dividend paying blue chip Canadian stocks (examples shown) in a diversified equity/fixed income portfolio. PE ratios on some of our dividend payers seem enticing to add to. As retirees with a reasonably conservative approach, what sectors does 5i feel have the best opportunity for P/E margin expansion over the next several years, assuming no 'abnormal' (whatever that is) market volatility and some moderation of interest rates? Consistent with the margin expansion theme, would 5i suggest we add to our existing dividend payers, or to more growth-oriented names like BN group?
