Q: Hello 5i Team,
Thanks for your great calls on MU-Micron (up 6% in pre-market today) in one of your responses to members' questions & PHO-Photon.
Please let me know your opinions :
WWE recent increased 28% in three days due to new deal with FOX: buy more, sell or hold
OXY: buy to replace EQNR-Equinor ADR (New name of STATOIL) - we bought in November(up over 35%) in our US- RRSP account. Reason for switch for same growth, OXY has no dividend tax withholding and lesser currency fluctuation.
RMBS-Rambus: buy, hold or sell.
Thank you for the great work.

Q: I recently asked: "f had $500,000 invested in the Income Portfolio balanced exactly as it was in 2017, how much money would I have earned in 2017?"

Your answer was "The income portfolio returned 9.28% in 2017; so $500,000 at the start of the year would have earned $46,400. Note our portfolio returns do not include commission, so your actual return would be slightly less than this depending on your commission charges to buy/sell.'

y follow up question- Does that figure of $46,400 include the dividend pay out, or just the appreciation of the portfolio?

Q: I had shares of Jean Coutu. I thought the deal with Metro was that I would get shares of Metro in exchange of PJc. Instead, I got the proceedings of the sale on my Disnat account. I surely missed the document where I would have been able to select a different choice and avoid part of the capital gain at this moment. I would like to put that money at work. What would be a good choice from the BE or Income portfolios to replace PJc? The weight of Metro, Loblaws and EMP.A is already 10% of my portfolio.
