Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi, I am looking for 2-3 stocks which have recently come down, but have strong revenue projection, low debt, and good track record.
I am not looking for Oil & Gas, Pipelines, or Utilities.
Please let me know if CGX, SIS, WEF, QTRH, NFI meet that criteria. If yes, how would you rate these.
If not, please suggest few other names.
Thanks for your help.

Q: Looking BCI over as another way to play the aging population theme plus people are sitting around staring at screens most of the time, especially in the last 30 years (me too) and ruining their eyes. Your last rating on this Company was Nov 2017 @ B+. Do you still consider it worthy of a B+? If so, in the context of a year later. with very little movement, no dividend increases...why?

Thank You once again

Q: Can I please get your opinion of Lin. What do you think about the merger between Praxair and Linde? Do you see this as a good long term investment? Would the 15% widtholding of the dividend apply in an RRSP, as I believe they moved their headquarters out of the USA?

Are you as high on Box now as you have been over the last while? Thoughts on recent earnings? I own this in the TFSA. Worth keeping or can you suggest another company, similar sector with more growth potential. Thanks again

Q: Hello 5I,
I will be retiring in 3 to 4 years and I would like to know if the following ETF would provide a suitable diversification while reducing volatility and providing a monthly income to compliment my pension.
50% CND: CDZ/XTR/XEI/PDF/ZRE
30% United States: ZWH/ZDY
20% Intl: ZWE/ZDH
Feel free to add/remove ETFs as required
Finally, would you limit the exposure to each ETF to 15%?
Thanks
Sylvain

Q: Hi,
I own BIP.UN shares and sold half of my position before they announced the acquisition of some assets from Enbridge as I thought they will come to equity market to raise capital. At present stock price is almost at the same level at which I sold. In comparison during the same time BBU.UN price has fallen from 58 to 48. Do you think its a good idea to invest that capital in BBU.UN rather than acquiring BIP.UN? Just to let you know I do hold ENB:T and ALA:T for income.
Thanks

Q: Hi Everyone at 5i! You have answered several inquiries about this company and from the answers, I gather, holding the stock and receiving its big dividend are risky. The Futura corporation just bough some more stock and owns 16.96% of the shares.( source yahoo finance)...This Corporation is owned by the same person, Amar S. Doman, who owns Canwel. Is this significant? Or in a roundabout way is he buying up his own shares via this corporation? Cheers, Tamara
