Q: Seems like the renewable energy area has a future. Could get your top 6 stocks that you would purchase for growth and dividend? Which would be most affected if interest rates were to gradually rise? Thanks for the great service. Would like to stay in the cdn market, but a top us one or two would be appreciated.

Q: I currently have AQN (2.5%), BEP (1.5%) and INE (1%) and would like to add a further 1.5% overall to the "green" utility sector of my portfolio. Do you feel that BLX would be a good addition?
If so, I am thinking of adding .5% to BEP (to bring it to 2%) and 1% to BLX and wanted to get your thoughts for a +/-5 year hold.
Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide the names of 5 or 6 companies which you think have potential for good growth but are still in relatively early stages of development and are still pretty much unknown to the investment world. I am looking for companies with manageable levels of debt or no debt at all. Sector and market cap are not a factor. Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i Team,
I currently hold in my TFSA both AQN and BLX. Judging that the market is running for safety and that I have a long time horizon, would you consider adding/switching to another utility such as CU(11x PE) or BEP. If not, any other companies tickle your fancy?

Thanks

Q: How many utilities are enough and where? I have AQN in TFSA and , BEP, BIP, FTS in cash account (along with BAM.A and BBU.UN - total Brookfield is 8.91%). My spreadsheet indicates I have 3% space left in utilities sector to add but your PA says I am over. Sold all of H (was largest utility holding) due to political risk of current chaotic provincial government. Looking at a replacement for H. Don't really need the income for living , looking more for safety and some growth. Looking for your view on how you would rank above prospects or should I add to existing, or stand pat?
