Q: Hi Peter/Ryan,

I was holding off buying MG and NFI because of NAFTA disagreements. Now that it is a done deal is it a good time to buy these stocks or future recession may have a bigger impact on the auto sector. They are trading close to 52 week low. Magna has dropped by almost $10 since July.
Appreciate your advice.

Thanks
Ninad

Q: I am modeling a portfolio after your balanced portfolio (with the occasional stock from your growth portfolio as a replacement) and already hold your other suggestions in the industrial and consumer area. Looking at adding one of the above 4 stocks this week. (DOO would be in place of MG if chosen). What would be your suggestion and why? Thanks!

Q: There is only cash available in a LIRA, aka no cash in a non-registered account or TFSA.
At the same time, I would like to invest in three new positions - MG, TFII and WSP for a balanced portfolio. I have read in the past 5iR thought it preferable to hold MG in a non-registered account because of the cyclicality of the business but that if held in a registered account, then might want to trade around the cycles. I would like your take of holding these three companies in a LIRA that will start to be drawn down in about 2 years but will span, hopefully with good ageing, many years.....Thanks....Tom

Q: Hello 5i Team. My understanding is that there are 2 significant issues here. US tariffs, and recent miss on performance. I've just recently started managing my own rsp, I'm finding mg to be the toughest decision I've had to make so far. I read that the stock could drop by as much as 30% if the tariffs go through. I've read mostly positive feedback from 5i on MG. Can you help quantify the risk over the next 2 months to a year?
Thanks

Q: Today Rose Ambrose ,who is involved in the NAFTA talks, indicated that unless Canada compromises Trump will impose the 25% auto tariffs on September 1, 2018.

So how can Canada negotiate/compromise if our negotiators are not invited to participate in the negotiations between the Mexicans and the Americans.

Since very little time is left between now and September 1, 2018 and since Canada is sidelined, is it fair to assume that Trump’s 25% auto tariffs will be implemented?

What is your opinion?
