Q: I own Air Canada and Cargo Jet and have done very well on both. With Air Canada expanding its Cargo's operation substantially, I wonder if owning both really makes sense. Do you think that replacing CJT with TFII, operating in a different segment of the logistic industry, would be a good/better move?
thanks for your help!

Q: The listed companies each carry about a 1% weighing in my portfolio. There are no tax implications and I am positive on all of these. I am trying to reduce my overall holdings to about 25. I believe each company has its merits but I will never hit a home run with such a small investment. Can you advise which ones you would keep and consolidate or perhaps suggest something else to put all of the proceeds toward.

Thank you

Q: Dear 5i,
Here are the stocks I have left to purchase from your Balanced portfolio, can you please place these in order or how attractive they are at this time for a long-term hold? Also, is QQQ a good starting point for US focus holding in a registered account? Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i,

After months of negotiating, the federal government and Air Canada announced a deal on Monday that allows the airline to access $5.4 billion in loans while Ottawa takes a $500 million stake in shares at $23.1793, a discount compared to Air Canada's closing price today. If I don't have any Air Canada, should I still buy some? What attractive price should be consider. Please kindly advise the deal, coming target price and any suggestion. Do you consider buy or hold?

Q: Considering the new partnership/investment/bailout with the Government of Canada, How do you see this playing out ?
- I noticed Air Canada stock held up fairly well, considering the Government did the deal at a discount to current stock price.
- It looks like some smart advisers/consultants did the deal, however I am surprised that the stock did not drop more today...
- How the market interprets things these days is a bit confusing to me...
Good thing Vegas is opening up more..., because I want to bet Red on the Roulette wheel as a potential proxy for Air Canada at this point...
