Investment Q&A

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

Q: The preferreds of various insurance companies are getting whacked with numerous issues hitting yearly lows on Friday, including some not connected with the Mosten lawsuit such as GWO. As a holder of several investment grade issues of these companies it is difficult for me to quantify how large the potential liability could be. Does 5i have any sense of this?

Q: Happy Thanksgiving Peter and Team, with the change last week re: accessability to hedge funds for regular folk, are there any you would recommend ? Also, if one thought that we might be in for a medium - prolonged downturn would that affect your choice ?
Thanks, Paul

Q: Good morning
In keeping with the theme of fewer positions and more concentrated portfolios (higher weights and fewer names you have mentioned in the past).
Which 5 US stocks would you recommend for a US TFSA and for a US RRSP?
Would these be different since tax treatment for these portfolios are different?
Thanks
Victoria

Q: Happy Thanksgiving to All! I am doing a little portfolio clean up. These are the names I am considering selling: Atco (ACO), Barrick (ABX), Census (CVE), Stantec (STN). Are any still worth holding? Why? Can you offer replacement ideas within the same sector? I am about a decade from retirement and prefer stocks with a (growing) dividend, and also have potential for price appreciation. I have a buy and hold investment style.
