Q: Currently we have 2 TFSA's which I am trying to design for maximum growth. The holdings are as follows:
1-ZLB,HXS,GUD,OTEX,PTG,SIS
2-ZLB,HXS,ITC,KXS,SHOP,TOY.
Please suggest on both of the portfolios (treating them as one) which stocks should be sold, and what should be purchased to replace them. I want the TFSA to act as the supercharger to my overall holdings.
Thanks and Happy New Year.

Q: There have been a number of comments recently on your site concerning Warren Buffet's advice to put 90 per cent in an etf which follows the broad U. S. market and 10 percent in an bond etf. There has also been a considerable amount of concern on the site that the American market may be over valued at the current time and something like emerging markets might be a better bet currently. If that this worry has substance, is there some portion of the US market which might be a good bet at the mement--for instance a small cap etf? What would a US small cap etf be a good one? Also what bond etf might be appropriate. There are probably a lot of questions in here. But, I have just shown my confidencein5i by renewing for a couple of more years. So I have lots of ammunition in my questions bag.\t

Q: I own the following stocks and ETFs in a non-registered account:
ATD.B, AIF, AVO, BCE, BNS, BYD-UN, CCL.B, CNR, CSU, GC, KXS, MG, MX, NFI, PPL, PBH, TD, TOY, SJ, WSP, VFV, VUS, VEF, ZQQ
Apart from the ETFS, this mirrors fairly closely your balanced portfolio...
I also have SIS and PHO in my TFSA. I want to add another stock to my TFSA and saw that you had chosen SHOP as a to pick a while back on BNN. Ryan chose DOL just today. Between the two and considering what I already own which one do you think would be best for me? or maybe there's something else? I am looking at 10+ years before I would need the money. cheers
Andy
PS Thanks for the fantastic service and I hope everyone at 5i has an awesome new year!

Q: Hello 5i team,
What is a good ETF that tracks the tsx broad market that pays a decent dividend. Is CDZ a good choice or do you have another suggestion that would be a counterpart to VFV.

Q: Gentlemen,
I have PPL , weighted 1.8% PF.
I read a comment saying PPL is overvalued compered to peers with a sell recommendation. Your thought ?
I have ENB (2.5%), TRP (1%),
These 3 companies can be considered in a utility sector instead as Energy sector ?
Thanks
Best Regards

Q: Currently I deal with several brokerage firms. National, TD, Scotia, Royal and MD Management. This has been an evolution but dealing with so many accounts is a bit cumbersome. I am looking at consolidating into one House. I.e. MD Management. Can you give me your thoughts on dealing with only one firm and any insight you may have on MD Management? Very difficult to get a handle on MD since they are the financial arm of the Canadian Medical Association and as such are private. I enjoy dealing with them therefore the reason for favoring them. Thank You
