Q: Hi Peter, I am looking for a growth replacement for CLS and it can come from any of your portfolios. Please suggest your top 3 or 4. I already own PHO, PUR, TV and ZCL in a 29 stock portfolio. Time frame 1-3 year hold.

Many thanks for your candid advice. It has served me well for over 4 years now and I have renewed my membership for 2 more years.

Q: Hello Peter, Ryan and 5i team,

I recently sold my position in BYD.un and would like to instead deploy the funds to add another one of the FAANG stocks?
The ytd return on BYD.un is just about 10% and would like a growth stock for a 5+year hold. I own half postions in FB, GOOG and would like to know which would you add and have most conviction with for a long term (forever?) hold? I was leaning towards AMZN, BABA or APPL? Or would you suggest a half position in a two of these?

Thank you as always for your valued opinion,
Regards,
Romeo

Q: I sold out of a position and have some cash to work with. I have narrowed it down to three stocks and I'm struggling to pick which one is better at this time. Which of the above would you pick as the long term holding that you feel would have the best return if bought today? Disregard sector allocation. Thanks

Q: Hi, There are a number of stocks in the 5i balanced portfolio that I don't have yet. If I were to buy only three from the following list, which three would you pick for its growth and its value? My portfolio is well diversified so the sector allocation isn't a big concern:

GC, AIF, BYD.UN, CAE, CLS, PKI, SYZ, or GSY, PHO, ECN,

thanks

Q: My concern is the US is going to move to close tax loopholes on companies doing most of their business in the States, but headquartered in other countries. What companies you cover might be negatively impacted in this case?

CXI and BYD are two that spring to mind.

Thanks as always for your great work.
