Q: I am interested by growth companies that have a lot of potential, and preferably relatively secure and not extremely volatile. I thought of the following companies: LSPD, NVEI. TOI, GSY, TAIG and LEV. If you would have to buy those companies, in what order would you buy them. Feel free to include other ones that are not on this list or exclude some of these if you think that they are not appropriate.

Q: Can you please comment on Equitable's recent quarterly results. How does their valuation now compare to others in the financial services sector? It appears to have been another very strong quarter with their CET1 ratio now close to, if not, higher than the big 5 banks. I know 5i prefers GSY but I'm wondering why EQB doesn't get much love considering their very strong track record of earnings and dividend growth.

Q: Despite the pullback in "green" energy stocks they still look expensive to me (AQN a possible exception). BLX and PIF have forward E/P over 50x according to the Globe.
Would you expect a better entry point, and if choosing an ETF do you have a preference between ZCLN and HCLN.

Q: It keeps making new 52 week highs, It is a moderate buy if analysts are to be believed. There is the play on recovery but it appears over valued. The dividend though paid for "77 consecutive quarters" has not grown since 2014. I was going to buy a small position a while back but was worried then about the shares deflating. Can you tell me why it is so favoured at this time? Thanks
