Q: Hi 5i

I own most of BE along with AAPL,GOOGL,DIS, TD, BEP.UN and a few others. Want to add 2 of the above soon. Which 2 would you recommend now?

Also, I would like to know your thoughts on PEG/PEGY ratios. Do you use them and if so, how?

Thanks, Greg

Q: Thanks to 5i I have a well diversified Canadian portfolio. I have been augmenting it with Large Cap US stocks that expose me to markets that are not available to me through the TSX and most of these US names have done very well for me. I am comfortable with being more concentrated in my US holdings as my Cdn investments make up 75-80% of my total portfolio and are well diversified across sectors. My US holdings are in a non-resgistered account and break down as follows:
AAPL - 35%
AGN/REGN/BIIB - 15%
BAC/MS - 27%
LYB - 3%
PYPL - 8%
SWKS - 7%
WBA - 5%

AAPL has done so well for me over the past few years that it is now a large part of my US exposure. My microchip stock (SWKS) has also done extremely well, but it is closely tied to AAPL. My question is given the current announcement by AAPL and its strong recent performance would you be inclined to take some profits off the table or let the "winners continue to run"? I have a reasonably high risk tolerance but do not want to be unduly foolish/greedy. Would you suggest any other changes to what I am holding? What would be your top 3 or 4 US stocks to augment this portfolio?

I value and appreciate your guidance.

Many Thanks
Scott

Q: A few of your employees own this. It has dropped off a few per cent in the last few days. Any reason? Also, before I logged in I think on Sept. 11 you were talking about two stocks that had a rating change - one up - one down and basically when I logged in I could not find this. Where do I go to find rating changes? Sorry Ryan for asking a lot of questions at the Money Show - but I really appreciated your presentation. Dennis

Q: Good afternoon,
Happy to have met part of the team at the money show. Thinking of buying UPS for exposure to increased online purchasing, nice dividend,large cap. Anything else you can suggest ?
UTX is the Rockwell deal a problem or opportunity ? This would be a nice replacement for GE that I sold .

Q: My previous question asked your advice on an offer received for my NXPI shares. I tendered them shortly afterward.
Since then there have been more extensions and I'm concerned about the lack of closure.Because I am unfamiliar with the process I would appreciate your opinion on the options. A recommendation on the course to follow would be welcome.
