Q: It looks like electric powered vehicles are an inevitable winner as we continue to struggle with climate change. The need for better batteries to power these vehicles also seems inevitable. It seems like an investment in this trend is a winner. My question is, how would 5i suggest we as members take advantage of this opportunity? Please suggest some areas to focus on and what you consider to be the best companies in each area to invest in. Again, thank-you for your considered opinions.

Q: This is a follow up on my earlier question on tax loss selling for Enbridge:
1) Aqn. I like it but is it really an equivalent of Enbridge? I can see how Trans canada could be, because it is pipe lines. But, I don't think Algonquin has pipelines. So, I imagine you are saying that it is not an exact replacement but close enough. Am I correct?
2) I am not great with calculations and would like to know how you calculate the 21 per cent that you mention. You speak about a high tax rate. What do you consider a high tax rate. It looks like 20 per cent here. Is that right?
thanks again

Q: I hold this prefferred stock for years, bought by my then financial adviser. Is 5% of my RRSP portofolio with return -6.89%. It looks like dead money, I think it may be better holding TRP or other income stock. Not sure how this stock works, can I sell it or is better to hold until expires (not sure when?)

Q: I currently hold Loblaw (3% position) and Saputo (2% position). Which of these two companies have better growth prospects? Following Loblaw's earnings and given their considerable 'headwinds' (competition, minimum wage, bread price fixing fallout) I am considering shifting some funds from L to SAP. What do you think?....Glenn

Q: Hello 5i Team.
I own these stocks for the dividend, in sectors that are currently getting hit due to rising interest rates (I assume). From your point of view, is it best, if one needs the income, to not be concerned with losing equity value and just continue collecting the dividend and hope that over time, these stocks will recover? Or is it best to sell and research other options. (I am 66 years young). Please also rate these stocks from best to least in terms of dividend safety and growth potential. Thank you for your wise advice.

- BMO Nasdaq 100 Equity Hedged To CAD Index ETF (ZQQ)
- Global X Nasdaq-100 Index Corporate Class ETF (HXQ)
Q: Hello. In a letter dated Feb 26, you stated that HXQ had a better growth potential than ZQQ. Why would that be as both etf’s follow the Nasdaq 100? In addition all funds that follow the same index should perform equally ( ignoring expenses) should they not?
Q: I am considering adding a few of the following companies to my portfolio but would appreciate your advice. I am looking for a mix of both income and growth. Please rate in order of purchase.
