Investment Q&A

Q: I already had CNR stock in my nonregistered portfolio ,I just added CP and UNP in my RRSP in order to complete my "transportation sector ", choosing mostly railroads for precise reasons. What is your impression concerning the timing + the choices , my objective being here : less volatility + some growth and dividends. Thanks for your always excellent comments.

Q: Hi, I would love your views on the railroads? Are they a buy at these levels or do you see further downside.? Would you consider one or more to be a good core holding for a retired reasonably conservative investor? How would 5i rank your most preffered North Amercan railroads please? Thanks in advance?

If i can have your opinion on the rail way companies i have been holding UNP for around 3 years now can not complain much i am up 35% on it i am thinking of selling it and replacing it with CNR i would like to know if that will be better for me looking at around another 5 year hold.

Thank you so much and take what ever credits you need for this

Q: Seems to me that the market must be offering up some strong, well run companies that, for some strange reason, are trading at much lower prices than what they deserve. These kinds companies pay a good dividend, have a strong balance sheet and their forward earnings look good and dependable. (perhaps you call these kinds of companies 'value' companies). Anway, here's my question, I would like to begin investing in them and would appreciate your opinion on a number of these value companies that I should consider adding to my portfolio. Perhaps 6 Canadian and 6 American. Thanks as always for your appreciated opinion.

Q: Where would you put initial investment, CNR, CP, TFII, or US rail stocks and why?
Thanks again

Q: Please provide your top five Canadian and top five U.S companies that you consider to have superior pricing power. Thanks

Q: I want to crystalize tax losses in my non-reg account. Can you please suggest good proxies for IYT, VTV, VEA, and IWO? Thanks.

Q: Transports getting hit today. Do you see this as a trend for money flowing out of transports over next while?

Q: Hi Everyone at 5i!!! With Biden’s objective to enhance American infrastructure, what companies and ETFs stand to benefit from this and which would be the best ones to invest in? The list can include the stocks that provide the raw materials to this project as well. Thank you , Tamara

Q: Hello Peter,

We are seeking advice on how to play the infastructure game now that Biden confirmed on Sunday that it is a stand-alone deal. We are light on Steel, Industrials, Manufacturing, Aerospace, Transportation, Materials, and 5G. We have some green energy with BEP.UN & AQN. We will reshuffle the deck by reducing Tech stocks to accommodate the shift.

Can you rank the following stocks in the categories 1st to last and add any other stocks that may be a better choice than those listed
Steel: RS, NUE, SCHN
Industrials: DD, HON (+ any other suggestions)
Aerospace: LMT, BA
Transportation: WSP, TFII, UNP, CNR, CP (+ any other suggestions)
Materials: CX (+ any other suggestions)
Manufacturing: (suggestions please)
5G: MRVL, ERIC

My last question is ask your opinion of the top 8 stocks (please rank) for the infastructure deal regardless of the sector.

Thank you for your great service.

Debbie and Jerry
