Q: Hi 5i.

Which Canadian companies would meet the criteria to be considered dividend aristocrats, if they were listed in the US? I know one of the criteria is that the company must be a member of the S&P 500 Index, so obviously an equivalent index membership will have to be used; perhaps the S&P/TSX? Or, would you apply a minimum market cap threshold? It would be interesting to know what Canadian companies would meet the test. Thanks.

Q: telecoms have had a rough year and have not reacted positively to the lowering of interest rates with the heavy debt levels they have I would have expected a positive reaction by now. That being said if you had to choose between Rogers, Telus or BCE what one would you choose and why ?

Q: I see that financial yield is being used as a evaluation metric on GSY. Can you please explain how this valuation is used as compared to say more traditional measures such as; ROE, EBITDA, etc. Thx Steve

Q: Dear Peter et al:

Thanks to your persistent AND consistent faith in some of your high conviction stocks, my portfolio has done well! I just renewed my 5i Bundle subscription! (Your favourite pick BN alone paid for a few years worth of subscriptions!) My only request is to "fix" the search function in your ETF/MF Newsletter! Long over due my friend!!

I have asked this question several months ago and your answer once again proved VERY profitable! I had asked a few questions from different angles about NON-Correlated assets. Private Equity and Utilities and a few others ere mentioned by you. ALL of them are up till date!!

However at this current point in this cycle, post- election phase, how would you structure non-correlated assets? (To dampen my drawdown in Large caps/Tch/Financials etc., ) Any suggestions?

Q: Hello Peter,

At times you have stated "turnarounds seldom do" and I look at the future prospects of our Canadian economy thru that lens if the current gov't remains in power.
Could you list the sectors (and co's) that would be indifferent to and thrive in an imbecilic fiscal environment?

Thank you

Q: Hello:
Parkland- Up a little, down a little. Please give me your analysis. What could I replace it with? I already own Atd.
Thanks, Ben.

Q: There seems to be a consistent view by 5i and others that Small and Mid Cap stocks have started to lead the market and will continue to do so over the next 2 to 3 years.

What are your current top 5 Small/Mid cap US and Cdn stocks? Could you also add what you think are good entry points?

Thank you;
Tim

Q: What are your best ideas for income/dividend stocks/etfs in a non-registered account? Main goal is regular income.
Thank you.

Q: please provide 3 current metrics that you used to value TIH. and compare to the last 3 years. will the proposed tariffs have a material effect on the company? thanks Richard

Q: Just looking for an updated view of Canadian Tire. Think there will be much of a retail bump with all the suggested “ tax breaks”.?

Q: My portfolio contains the following securities: DRX, ATD, GOOG, AMZN, AMTM, AAPL, ATZ, AXON, BNS, BAM, BN, CSU, CRWD, DIR, EXP, LLY, ENB, GSY, HPS, ISRG, J, LMN, META, MSFT, NVDA, SHOP, TFII, TTD, TD, VRT, WSP. Most of these are under or at a full position except for AXON (higher). I have some cash I would like to deploy. Which would you add to today please for a long term investor age approx 40yr. Would you look to urgently sell any. Thanks!

Q: In a best case scenario, I think 4 years of Donald Trump in power will be chaotic and discruptive in the US and globally. In a worst case, I believe the US is heading for internal unrest/violence, and the certain parts of the globe will be at war. If you were a 74 year old investor who has done well listening to 5i the last 2 years, how would you now hedge against these scenarios?

Q: Hi Gang
What are your 5 top Canadian income ETFs

Thanks Mike B

Q: Hello 5i team

Last week on BNN, Peter showed a little concern for PRL if Trump sets the maximum interest rate at 10%. What would be the consequences for the company if this actually happened?

Thanks

Q: hi, I am down on all these names. I am considering adding to (some of?) them. I am looking for some growth in share price ( to match or beat inflation ) and a consistent growing dividend ( matching or beating inflation ). I also don't want to end up with another AQN or BCE scenario. could you kindly give us your advice on these names and include your thoughts on whether they are a buy (add to ), sell, or hold please.
cheers, Chris
