Q: Hello 5i,
I have a question which I don't know if it falls in your domain. But, i will try it. I have been thinking about gradually switching my utilities sector towards renewable energy. Currently I hold Algonquin and Emera which I will want to keep. { I know Emera is not on the renewals side, but i have a large cap gain and I don't want to pay the tax. There are other reasons to keep it, too}. Then, I have Enb and transcanada, which I would plan to sell if they come back a bit. I currently have about 9% in utilities where I think you recommend 15 for a retired person; but I am ok with that and am overweight technology and industrials. could you suggest a name or some names which would round out in a balanced way such a sector allocation?
thanks as always for the great service

Q: I'm considering adding one oil & gas stock to my portfolio. If you were going to buy only one oil and gas stock for your portfolio, which one would it be? Who would the runner up be? I'm not looking for an ETF. I'm a growth investor, not a dividend investor, generally looking to avoid anything that's too highly levered. Thanks.

Q: Spin Master looks like a dog, acts like a dog, and will soon be barking like a dog. Insiders, over the past year have been sellers of the company with no insider buying that I could see. Is this puppy healthy or is it rabid and needs to mercifully be put down?
About a month ago you said that you would issue a detailed report on the company in a timely manner. Given how the stock has been acting over the past month would this be a good time to issue a more detailed analysis,

Q: Because of the lack of liquidity on BCI I placed a limit order at $32 for the quantity I am looking for. I realize that once I'm in it will not be easy to exit.

Your last comment on BCI was a month ago and wondering how you felt about the stock at $32 for the next 2 or 3 years.

Asking this mostly because of the illiquidity and thought $32 might make it a good buy.

Please advise.
