Q: Hi Peter & Ryan,
As a long-term holder of CGI accrued solid returns past 5 years. When compared against competitor Accenture CGI is a laggard. I'm considering swapping GIB.A for ACN. What's holding me back is the higher valuation multiple on ACN. Arguably GIB.A is better value but... Some of my holdings are in registered accounts so tax is not a consequence. As always your wisdom-filled feedback on the potential of this trade is welcome. TIA for commentary.

Q: Hi,
I assume that you will deduct question points as you see fit.
I am considering simplifying and 'conservatising' my RRIF.My wife andI are in our mid 70's.
Portfolio Analytical has again shown that my account is unbalanced with inadequate foreign content. I also need to increase my weightings in Consumer (discretional and defensive), Industrial and Technology.

Could you please suggest 5 names for conservative longterm holds in non Canadian Stocks or ETF's in the following categories?
a)consumer defensive
b)consumer discretionary
c)Industrials
d)Technology .

With many thanks,
David

Q: I'm down on both of these (which I'm fine with), but wondering if you still see potential in them as the higher risk higher reward portion of my portfolio. If not, what would you suggest as replacements for a 3-5 yr outlook?

Q: Hello 5i, a report from RBC came out this morning with their ''need to have'' tech companies. Their Outperform ratings were on COUR, DBX, DCT, DOCU, JCOM, PEGA, TWLO and PEGA. Are you familiar with those companies and could you please mention your (2) favourites of the list and why? I own DOCU and TWLO already. If your preference is the same, it'll be a relief. If they aren't, I would open a new position since I have room for another one in terms of my allocation. Much appreciated, thank you.
