Q: Hi,
Comparing Telus, BCE and Rogers to AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile over the last year, the US companies seem to be outperforming (granted this is a short timeframe and others in the US top five: Comcast and Charter Communications aren't doing well either).

I was wondering if you have any thoughts about why the top three in the US are doing so much better lately than the top three in Canada. (Take credits as needed please.)

Thank you, Michael

Q: While Disney is a great company is it a great stock? I am down considerably on the stock as video streaming... have not met my expectations. Do you have any alternatives in this sector that would upgrade my portfolio or would you stay with Disney?
With appreciation,

Q: Hello 5i Team,

I'm looking to sell the following 12 stocks in my cash account to crystallize some losses in anticipation of better buying opportunities in the fall: BNTX, CAE, CHTR, CIEN, CJT, CTS, DIS, FNF, GNRC, HAS, TEAM, and YETI.

For each of these stocks, could you please indicate: HOLD; SELL; or SELL + RE-BUY (with suggested proxy).

Feel free to deduct as many credits as you see fit.

Thanks in advance for your always helpful advice!

Q: Hello Peter,
In the current market conditions,
1) what is your opinion on adjusting the portfolio by decreasing growth and an increase in defensive stocks; at least for the next six months.
2)If so, what do you think of Charter Communications?
3)I understand that you are not a proponent of frequent portfolio adjustments and prefer to ride out based on long term fundamentals. I feel that in addition to algorithmic trading, markets are more efficient with processing information and price it in a very short span of time. Your comments on this thesis as well is appreciated.
Regards.
Rajiv
