Q: I own Constellation's debentures,with the drop in stock price do you think it would be a good idea to fill out my position with the shares.

Q: While FB was plummeting I sold my shares and locked in some gains. I used the money to buy shares in Constellation Software. I believe CSU will recover faster and keep growing. I feel that with the news of a slower growing user base and users being on FB for less time, it will take the market a long time to regain it's confidence in the company. Do you agree. Or should I just get back in at this lower price?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

I manage my daughter-in-laws small portfolio, and the sector balances are now out of whack due to her recent cashing out of her TFSA for a major purchase.

She now has almost zero in the Technology sector. After I reallocate some funds from over-exposed sectors in her LIRA and RRSP, I'd appreciate knowing what Technology stock(s) you'd recommend at this time that provide a measure of safety and growth (preferably from the stocks covered by 5i. Thanks as always for your valued insight.

Q: Good morning 5i team
I am a retired, conservative investor who recently reduced the equity portion of our portfolio to raise cash for possible market "opportunities". Our largest equity holdings are TD, BNS, ENB, EMA and BCE. Thanks to 5i, we also hold SIS, NFI, BEP.UN and GUD. If we get a significant market sell-off, would you please recommend 3 or 4 stocks that have a good competitive advantage, modest debt and good growth potential. Thank you for your advice. Edward
