Q: I currently hold shares in GC, TSGI, TSG US (TSGI), & WEED.
Do u feel GC, TSGI & TSG are good long term holds?
Would you take profits in WEED using charts (trade the ups and downs) or just let it run and take profits when?
Tks.

Q: Hello 5i Team. My understanding is that there are 2 significant issues here. US tariffs, and recent miss on performance. I've just recently started managing my own rsp, I'm finding mg to be the toughest decision I've had to make so far. I read that the stock could drop by as much as 30% if the tariffs go through. I've read mostly positive feedback from 5i on MG. Can you help quantify the risk over the next 2 months to a year?
Thanks

Q: Hello. One ENF share is being offered as 0.729 of an Enbridge share (ENB today at $47.12). ENF price should be 0.7029 x$47.12=$33.12 as to the agreement. ENF is now $33.95. Why is ENF trading so much higher than the conversion rate (2.5% higher)? Is there a reason behind it? Is it because ENF has a higher monthly dividend? Also do you have an idea of the exact date ENF will be converted into ENB shares? Thanks as always.

Q: Hi 5i team,

My dad is almost retired with a +/- 5 year timeline of when he will need a majority of his savings. I feel he should move it out of a bank account that earns him 0.07% and into an ETF or into some blue chips stocks. Can you recommend some ETF's or blue chip stocks for his timeline?

Thanks.
