Q: Hi, I am looking to add to my utilities and currently have partial positions in BEP, FTS, AQN and NPI, none of which have moved much of late. I am looking at adding FLNC as a partial position thinking that it may have more growth potential.
1) Can I get your opinion of FLNC for long-term hold/moderate risk tolerance?
2) Can you rank the 4 stocks currently owned from best to worst, again with a long-term time frame/moderate risk?
Thank you as always for your insight.

Q: Just read a piece in FP on the option market and TSLA which appears to be an iceberg. While I have worried about TSLA and what it might do to the market should it crash it appears like I have missed an even larger worry. Is a TSLA failure capable of being a black swan event for the market as a whole?

Q: Today, stocks are on sale. Can you opine on which large and midcap CDN and US caps look like they are being hit for no fundamental reason? Thanks.

Q: Hello,

Could you recommend 5 of your favourite stocks (US or CDN) that provide a healthy mix of dividend yield and growth outlook?

This would be for a Smith Maneuvre with interest rate at 2.95%. Ideal scenario would be to get yield to be at 3% with some growth outlook on a 5 year time horizon.

Thanks very much.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Upstart, Pinterest and Cerence are all beaten down lately. Do you think they still have future growth potential and are buyable during the current tax loss selling period. If so, pls estimate an entry point respectively.

I understand the risk of these stocks and they are in different sectors.
Pls deduct credits at your discretion.

Thank you for your great advice as alwasys

Q: For a lithium supply play how does this little company look to you? With the Koch strategic platforms making an investment in this company recently announced does this make it a little more interesting? In the lithium space who would be your pick to play on this future demand as more vehicle companies start to offer more electric options.

Thanks

Q: One of the aspects of GE's businesses that has always appealed to me is the research arm, including additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence and biology/applied physics.

Since the company is going to split into 3 separate entities, do you know which of the new companies will contain the research arm, or will it simply be a component spread across all three?

Thank you.
