Q: Hi, based on the companies that you cover and also US if possible, which companies are likely to have a stable and steady growth in the next 5 - 10 years ? I mean, I would like to invest in companies that are fairly valued today and that can grow steadily in the next years, not extreme high growth companies. I aim companies that will give me a CAGR > 10% but with a medium risk.

Q: You have mentioned J quite a bit in the last few weeks. My son’s portfolio is short industrials and US stocks. At what point would you pull the trigger and buy J. I noticed earlier today that you said you were still watching it. He owns SIS, TFII and CAE and it seems J would be an excellent fit for his portfolio. Thanks

Q: I would like to increase my portfolio exposure to materials and industrials. When it comes to materials, I own NTR and was thing of adding a position in SJ. I am not entirely comfortable with this buy (concerns about slow growth), but I can't simply find a better alternative. What are buyable (quality + reasonable valuation) companies in the materials sector that you think are better than SJ? When it comes to industrials, I was think of starting long-term positions in EIF and CAE because of their recovery potential due to low valuation. Is there anything that you find concerning in these two?

Q: Hi, the highest rated industrials you cover are SIS, TFII and WSP (all B+) all of which I own a full position, plus CAE (also B+) which I own a 1/2 position. I'm currently under weight industrials, but not comfortable adding to CAE just yet. Are the other industrials you might recommend that could be B+ or better?
Thanks, Ian
