Q: Hi 5iResearch Team,
I have finally decided to give up my full position on ZCL and was wondering if you can recommend something regardless of sector/industry, to take its place. Preferably I would like something with a dividend but it is not a must. As always, good works guys.
Cheers,

Q: My 20 year old contributed $21k to his TFSA in July, purchasing roughly equal amounts of KXS, PHO, SIS, TOY and PUR. He just sold his PUR shares and now has about 26% of his now $27.6k portfolio in cash. KXS represents about 14% of his portfolio (down approx. 8% from July), PHO 20%/+33%; SIS 17%/+14% and TOY 23%/+43%. Are there one or two names you could suggest to add to his portfolio? Or would he better off maybe topping up a couple of his current holdings (KXS? SIS?). This is for a long term hold. Love your service. Thanks.

Q: The Globe Investor has the target price on PBH as $106.50 based on analysts polled by Zacks Investment Research (6 month time horizon, updated daily). On BNN yesterday, the caller asked for the street consensus target, which was $116.50. Pretty large difference = $10. Is it simply the 6 month target price vs a 12 month target price? Thanks...Steve

Q: Hello 5i Team
I have about $1100 in cash in an RESP account ( grandchildren are 4 and 2 years old) to invest and unsure what sector / stocks to choose next. Current holdings are ECI, ENB, SIA and Car.un with nice gains in all. I want to diversify of course but banks seem expensive right now. Would you please suggest a few alternatives. I have considered Brookfield companies but unfortunately, I think that corporate set up causes tax reporting issues for the sponsor on the RESP account. If you know this to be untrue, please let me know.
Regards
Kathy

Q: Hi guys, I'm looking at your response to 'who's likely to suffer when NAFTA gets torn up' (which seems increasingly likely)... I have held these for a long time and been VERY happy with all of them, but is it time to trim them down? Do you think the NAFTA threat is sufficiently priced in? I'd love to get your thoughts on each one. Thanks! PS -- you can ding me for 5 questions :-)

Q: Hi

Based on Ryan's reply to the questions asked on the 3 companies mentioned above today on BNN.
Would it be wise to sell them now or reduce my position?
If yes, what would you suggest to replace them with?
Looking for growth first and a dividend is always nice.
Thank you
Mike

Q: PBH is down bigtime today but I am far more concerned about ENB. PBH is still very much in an uptrend as it has been since 2009. ENB on the other hand, is in a downtrend and has been for a year now. And, very, very rare for a Balanced Equity stock, has been showing up in the 52 week low column a number of times in the past while. What do you see for ENB. Are you considering any changes?
