Q: Good morning 5i Team.

I'm primarily an income investor and I'm building positions in these three names. My target is BEP.UN (5%) AQN (3%) and RNW (2%) for a total of 10%. Do you think 10% is too high for the group? Is it necessary to diversify into all three? If not, which would you pass on?

Thanks
Peter

Q: Hi, I am looking for dividend paying stocks that also have the most upside share price potential in both the short and long term. Could you rate the above, best to last, and if you have any other suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated.
I am not overly concerned with sector allocation.
Many thanks.

Q: of all the companies listed, I currently have the same percentage of holding that is in the 5i portfolio. Which of these stocks would you be comfortable buying today and making it a 4-5 % holding as I have some cash and would like to average down. I am a young investor with a long horizon as these stocks are all in my RRSP.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i team,
Brookfield equities (BAM, BEP and BIP) represent 8% of our portfolio. I am down 8% on BEP but am wondering whether the current dip down to $38.87 per share represents a good buying opportunity, especially given it's dividend yield at around 5.5%. So, my questions are: 1) is an 8% total Brookfield weighting too much in general, and 2) what about buying more BEP or do you think that it's likely to slide further given their broad holdings in emerging markets. Thanks for your help.

Q: I have owned these names for a few years. I did ok with them and was planning to add simply because I have some liquidity to invest. Do you expect decent return going forward (5 years time horizon), they have been going sideways in the last year or so. Do you consider these names as ''high quality'' ?
