Q: Hi 5i
I would like to replace AEM in my LIF account with another basic material holding. My goal is growth. Both NTR and WFG are looking interesting now. Could you give your opinion of which would likely be the better play for a long term. With the pending slow down/recession would you switch now or wait?
Thanks

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

A 5i member (Rajeev) stated in a recent question that he had an overweight core ownership of Constellation Software. We agree with you about the benefits of keeping the "free" TOI and LMN shares we received from these CSU spinoffs. However, does your answer imply that since we are presently overweight in Technology (largely because of CSU) should we consider reducing exposure to CSU? This would be a very hard thing to do, so it's a dilemma, to say the least!

As always, thanks for your insight.

Q: Hello, after 2/3 weeks of trading, Lumine shares flirted with a low of $14 and now appears have bounced back above $15.50. Trading volume also appears be declining now. ( Initial few days traded a few millions shares each day ). Do you think, selling by Index funds/ETF's is almost done ? if so, would you still wait to buy/add until shares trade down to $12.50 - $13.50 level or $14 could be the near term floor ? Thank You

Q: Hi, What % of TOI and LMN common shares are owned by CSU ( including any preferred or other class to be converted to common, in future ). Also, what % of market capitalization of CSU, the two companies make up, respectively, based on current values. I guess, what we are trying to assess is that, to what extent and why it makes sense to own TOI and LMN shares, while already having an overweight core ownership of Constellation Software. Thank You

Q: Exchange Income seems to continue to be a favorite of yours. I would like to invest in the company but fear I lack the confidence to hold on to it in a major market downturn. I would appreciate it if would explain why you believe the company is strong enough to continue to do comparatively well in a major economic pull back.

Q: Good afternoon, it's been some time since I rebalanced my portfolio, and I'm wondering if I could get an update on how you would weight the various sectors on the TSX at this point in time.
Thanks
