Q: Hi
I am looking into getting into the stock market. I have invested in stocks in the past but currently don't hold any stocks. I'm 25 years old, have a long term horizon and a medium high risk tolerance,
I have about 10K to start investing with and am looking for the best way to diversify and also get into the stock market again. I hold GICs already.
I was thinking about starting off with the stocks in the balanced portfolio and from there (as i am able to save some more money) pick a few other key names,
What is your opinion of this idea, do you think if I start with those stocks in the balanced portfolio at the current prices is that a good start?
Thanks
Chris

Q: Good Morning 5i Team:

I currently hold some IT, as I think it will perform well during a deflationary/recessionary time.

I have heard the issues AYA are having with the investigation.

What relationship do those AYA rumours have on IT? How do you feel about an investment in IT?

Thank you!

Q: Hi Peter and team,

When you remove FM from a model portfolio, does that mean a sell for us even if we do not hold the same positions as the portfolio. Would you recommend swapping FM for another company in the sector (e.g HBM or LUN) or just getting out of the sector at this time?

Also, what's you take on PRW's survivability in the current environment?

Thanks for all you do for us.

Q: Hi, When asked about DRT today you mentioned that the "growth rate is disappointing." Does this mean you don't recommend buying the stock now?

I own a half position. I had heard on BNN that this quarter wouldn't be great so planned to buy more to complete my position after it fell on the news. Is this still a good plan? Or are you suggesting that people wait to buy?

Thanks,
Carla

Q: Hello 5i,
My 16y old just got a job!! so I'm helping put together an investment portfolio. Basically its the MoneySaver ETF portfolio minus the fixed income and gold ETFs, also I've added ZRE for a total of nine ETFs. The plan is when $1200 dollars is made at the new job, one of he ETFs is bought. To me this seems like a good start, maybe even a finish depending on the interest in investing. What do you think?
Thanks,

Q: Good day,
Peter is quoted in the Globe thusly “If you’re an institutional shareholder and you come in and management owns a lot of shares, then the financing closes and management doesn’t own a lot of shares, that’s when you say: ‘I don’t want this stock and I don’t want this company; I’m going to ditch whatever shares I have.’” In light of this, are you advising people to dump PHM? Because your previous statements said nothing has materially changed with the company, which I took to mean it was still worth buying...
