Q: What are your thoughts on the IPO of IPL Plastics. I think its international exposure and the 28% ownership of the Caisse de Depot makes it very interesting. Would starting a small position be wise at this time. Thanks

Q: I have no energy exposure in my portfolio since 2014. I sold all of WCP, RRX, VET, SGY late 2014 and never went back. I am thinking about gradually stepping back into energy but not in a hurry or big way. I am a growth investor and have no issue with risks. Should I buy CNQ, SU etc big names or stay with smaller ones like WCP, VET etc. or just use an ETF like XEG? Thanks.

Q: Hi, Trevali is very close to it’s 52 week low. I’m wondering if there is something wrong with the stock? Has it just fallen out of favour or is there good reason for the downturn? If you are still recommending it I am thinking of taking a full position. If not, can you recommend another mining stock with good growth prospects. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Q: Hell 5i Team,
I am planning to cash out mutual fund and invest it in stocks in my wife's RRSP account (75K) which will be around 1/3 od my existing portfolio (150K). I have my TFSA and RRSP invested in stocks (mostly from Balanced Equity portfolio). I am considering these names, which I don't have in my existing portfolio. Do you see any concern with any name? Please suggest a couple of names for growth potential, but not too risky.
Thanks for the great service.
