Q: Hi 5i team,
I have a 3 month old son and have opened him up an RESP. Can I get your opinion on what 2-3 stocks you would invest in that provide decent income (in the form of a dividend), and are relatively safe knowing that he will need the money in 18 years. I was thinking of playing it more conservative, but I have been contemplating taking a shot at something with a good growth potential.
Thanks so much.

Q: Hello, Many Real estate investment trusts(e.g. IVR)and related ETFs (e.g. REM) distribute ~10 to 12% dividend. This appears very good but may be a high risk investment. What is your opinion about IVR REIT and REM etf?. Which one is better? or may be none?
Thanks
Thanks
Q: Hi,
On January 19th you suggested the following US stocks(UTX, SBUX, GOOG, ULTI, CALM, DIS, JNJ, LMT, SIMO, EBIX.) to "Stephen" who was looking to deploy some US cash, and looking for "reasonable risk, decent growth and some divided," Do those still look good to you as I'm looking to add some US exposure in the next couple weeks to compliment my Canadian holdings which follow your Balanced Portfolio.
Thanks!

Q: Hi 5I- Have just received lump sum retiring allowance and now 30% cash. Present holdings are 18%GGF31222-10%VUN-7%XEF-7%ZGI-6%SLF-6%VXC-5%ZUH-4%IYT-3%XEH-3%ATD-2%DIS. Would like your suggestions for more etf exposure and would like to start adding slowly with the next downturn, but don't like to sit in cash to long. Would you trim healthcare or USA in general now? We are long term investors. Thanks for your help.
Q: Good afternoon:
I am wondering whether you have a favourite name in the US defense sector in terms of potential for future performance. I have been considering GD, LMT, NOC or RTN.
I would appreciate any views you may have.

Q: Re my question yesterday on W.Us, thank you for your thorough assessment. I had asked for other ideas to invest $10,000 USD in any sector. You suggested AMZN, but that would buy only 16 shares. Any other ideas?
Q: What is your opinion on Take-Two Interactive? Is this just another "flavour of the month" in the gaming software space, or does it have real "game" in its own right?
Thanks, as always, for your help and insight. Is it worth a longish-term hold?

Q: I am 30 years old and have built a sector diversified portfolio of around 25 names from the TSX worth approx 200k. I also have a pension invested conservatively in bonds/mutual funds worth approx 100k. I would like to invest all additional cash for the next few years in 3 or 4 ETF's to diversify out of Canada instead of adding to my Canadian portfolio. Do you see any major flaws in my theory? also could you suggest 2 or 3 ETF's to start out with. My thoughts were: VOO, VEA, and IJR. Thanks
Q: I like the look of W.US and have about $10,000 USD to invest. Can you give me your thoughts please, or do you have some better ideas? Sector is not important.
Q: Can you recommend one or ETF's for US $ exposure in a balanced Portfolio.
Thank you
Thank you
Q: Can I get your thoughts on this very new etf launched by purefunds? Has 36 stocks of companies involved in video games. Has a very small cap of 2.6m. The gaming industry is an evolving industry and judging by the price of video games constantly increasing in price that my kids have no problem in forking out the dough for, revenue should increase for the companies. More companies are getting involved in the online gaming such as Amazon buying twitch, Facebook launching Oculus Rift and China's gaming market is expected to double over the next 4 yrs. This etf would seem to be a winner. I know it is a very risky etf and probably have to hold for a few yrs but what do you think?
Q: I bought this quite recently as its valuation seemed decent and the stock seemed to be firmly in recovery mode. Do your resources indicated why it dropped 14% today? This is not a small cap stock...
Q: Hi,
Can you comment on whether you think the recent drop in stock price is because of the lawsuit directed against ValueAct and what effect it will continue to have an effect on the stock price?
additionally, what do you think of BHI at these prices for a two year hold?

Q: Hi 5i Team,
Do you consider Allergan "cheap" with the stock trading around at $235.00?
What is their EPS 2015, 16 and/or 17? How is their balance sheet and would you consider them one of the "better" US healthcare companies?
Thanks, Shane

Q: My Canadian portfolio closely follows your BE Model and is approx.75% of the total. The remaining 25% is invested as follows in more or less equal amounts: Apple, Abbvie, Bank of America, Alphabet, HEWJ, Wells Fargo, and ZDM. I have sufficient US$ for another foreign position. I'm leaning towards IWO or EEM/VWO. May I have your thoughts and advice please.
Q: I hold Amaya shares in both my Canadian and U.S. accounts. I would like to sell my U.S. shares (at a loss) and use the money to buy shares in a U.S. company that is growth oriented rather than income and is small to mid-cap. It does not have to be specifically related to the gaming field. Thanks.
