Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,
I am looking to take advantage from the current market dip and add the the above securities and ETF to my RRSP Portfolio. My time frame is 5 to 10 years. with adding the above I will be having all the 5i balanced portfolio stocks included. In addition I am adding some ETF and other stock that I think it can help my portfolio. Appreciate you advise of which stock look good at this time to buy (please rank). Is there any of the list I should avoid. Do you have other suggestions for good quality stocks and ETF (in the US and Canada) that have a good growth potential.
Thanks,
YR

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

Like most others, I'm licking my wounds tonight and strategizing how I might eventually make back some of the ground I've lost today. Thank you for the updated report and shopping list suggestions provided.
As well, I was thinking that there may be some good recovery opportunities within electronic transaction companies. I realize that interest rates, volume of transactions, etc., are some of the factors that will affect valuations, but the corona virus could be a boost for these companies if more of the world's consumers (especially in developing countries) move to a cashless society. I read that China is burning or disinfecting a lot of their paper money to help curb infection spread. Do you agree with this thesis, and if so, could you suggest a list of companies that could benefit? Could there also be boost to bitcoin adoption? Thanks.

Q: Thank you for the special report and the 10 companies to keep an eye on during these volatile times. The only question I have is the impact felt to the travel industry and if there are any companies from that industry that we should keep an eye on as well. Travel plans are already being reconsidered and I'm sure will only get worse and could be badly beaten over the course of time. Thank you for all your advise....

Q: Hi can you please explain what the prospectus filing on March 6/2020 for OVV means, they will be selling common shares and securities?

I own these shares in a TFSA and Canadian non-registered account, would there be tax implications?
