Q: Hi folks at 5i,
My current holdings are as follows in three different accounts, (tsfa, rrsp, lira)
VTI 14.52%
VEU 8.73%,
VCE 5.85%
SHOP 5.54%,
CSU 5.11%
CYBR.B 4.73%,
OTEX 4.50%
XEG 4.47%
SIS 4.03%
SPOT 3.72%
FLT 3.71%
T 3.66%
GUD 3.46%
KXS 3.24%
DOL 2.97%
BCI 2.51%
PHO 1.78%
Fixed Income:
VSB 4.73%
XCB 4.50%
XHY 4.33%
Cash 3.58

1- I am planning on selling FLT (per your recommendation) from a previous question. Which stock would you purchase from the growth portfolio to put the cash right back at work?
2- Thinking of also selling T and adding some to VCE and the rest to buy another name from the growth portfolio. Would you be comfortable with this? Seeing that the bulk of my portfolio are in large blended ETF's. If so, which name would you buy?
3- Debating if I should keep SPOT. Initial bought it for a 5 year hold. What are your thoughts on selling and adding to VTI or maybe buy a low volatility US ETF? Or any other thoughts?
Please deduct as many credits needed. I have plenty to spare :)

Thank you

Q: Hi 5I team.

Other than XUS (15%) I really do not have much exposure to US Stocks. Would you please recommend a few US stocks or Sector based ETFs to invest about 10% of new cash. I have a few options based on Mad Money and Market Call. Any preferences of the stocks I've listed or other ETF suggestions would be helpful. My horizon is for 5+ years.

Thanks

Q: Hi there,
i inherited this preferred and it is trading at a significant discount to other MS preferreds. It is difficult to wade through the online information to compare the features of this preferred versus others all paying a higher dividend. CAn you clarify why this one might be trading at such a discount.
