Q: Hello 5i, Thanks very much for all you do for your members. I look at your organization as the "Robin Hood" of the Canadian financial industry. My question today is: I sold my ECI this last week and decided to capture the gain and redistribute to one new position with the proceeds. I'm looking for another dividend aristocrat (as identified by the S&P index or one that could be as CIX will be getting the boot) I'm closing in on retirement but still like to stay in the growing type names. Not terribly worried about maximizing my income at this point. Which of my choices do you think has the most upside over the next 5 years.

Q: Dollerama stores are everywhere. They must be reaching a saturation point. I understand that they are trying to move up the value chain and gradually increasing prices. But they also face pressure from the potential tariffs on Chinese goods since the majority of their products are sourced from China. Do you still like this company or is there another retail company that would be a better fit?
thanks in advance.

Q: Hi 5i team,
With the recent pullback in the stock price of both Canadian Tire (CTC.A) and Alimentation Couche-Tard, if you only had to pick one, which one would you choose for the next 3-5 years?

Q: hello 5i:
with the understanding that they are worlds apart, and knowing that I am down substantially on ECN, would you think a switch to CTC.A would be a prudent move? Looking at a long term chart (5 years, or 10 years), and reviewing its earnings expectations (seem to meet or beat on an annual basis), it appears that CTC.A, is, at worst, fairly valued, and at best, lightly undervalued. Factoring in the Helly Hansen acquisition seems to make it look more undervalued. Your comment please, and I am NOT adverse to continuing to hold ECN.
thanks

Q: Hi, I was looking at buying HD but then started looking at Canadian Tire. According to Yahoo finance valuation looks cheaper and faster growth for Canadian Tire. Other than obvious size differences, would there be any other reason not to buy CTC.A over HD? thanks

Q: Canaccord has identified CanadianTire as one of their top 10 dividend stocks.

2 questions here:

1. Is there any information as to the sales volumes and comparable profitability between their 3 major divisions: Canadian Tire stores, Marks Work Wear House and Sport Check? And if so, projected future numbers.

2. Would you agree with Canaccord's opinion?

Thanks.

Q: I own MG and MTY in consumer cyclicals and contemplating adding another name among GIL, RCH, ZZZ or CTC.A. Please order them from best to worst as a solid complement to the two I already have, as part of an RRSP account with a 15+ years time frame. Please give a brief rationale and suggest another company if there is an obvious better choice. I note that the stock value of RCH is surprisingly stable on multi-year charts for a c. cyclical.
