Q: Thinking about beginning a position in BCE now that it has pulled back. Any thoughts on support levels now that interest rates increases have been pretty well telegraphed ? Thanks Steve

Q: Curious for your thoughts regarding the potential impacts on companies such as WSP and Stantec (companies that provide services in the US vs sell products) resulting from a collapse of Nafta.
Thanks

Q: Constellation Brands released their 3rd quarter results today and stock dropped about 3%, as company moderated its full year expectations to the lower end of forecast. Overall profit was higher, though. What do you think of the results and the company for a small investment, as a part of sector allocation ( and US Equity exposure) for long term ? I have been thinking about it for a while, but never got an opportunity. Thanks

Q: Happy New Year 5i Team.
We have been considering TMX Group (X-T) to add to our holdings for some time.
We are long term hold and income investors.

In a recent answer to a question (December 11, 2017) regarding TMX you replied…
“..The main concern would be the lack of new listings, but listing are somewhat cyclical.”
David Baskin, regarding TMX mentioned on BNN (January 4, 2018) … “Business is going well on all fronts, and the TSX was #1 in international listings last year.”
Do the recent ‘newly’ listed cannabis companies on the TSX improve your opinion of the ‘lack of new listings’ ?

Perhaps I am misinterpreting something here, if so I do apologize.
Do you happen to have any new outlook for TMX for 2018?
Thank You
Dennis

Q: JWEL is starting to look interesting - nice chart...

Q: My portfolio is 50% U.S; 20% Asia; 30% CAN; I was waiting for the NAFTA negotiations to lower the CAN dollar at which time I would repatriate some cash from the U.S. To CAN.....however with the strong commodity market of late the CAN dollar is surging........should I wait or repatriate now? Just looking for another opinion...... Thank you!

Q: Happy new years to you guys at 5iresearch!!! I hold positions in all of these and they have been dogs for about a year now. I am a fairly long term investor and I am wondering when I am going to see some up side to these as the oil sector seems to be recovering. Or would you suggest to let them go? Thanks for your time

Q: Would you feel comfortable starting a long term position in wef?

Q: I have a small amount of cash in my TFSA as a result of dividend income. I have less than a full position in the above companies either as a result of smaller purchases or because they have dropped since purchase. (HWO) Which of the above would you add to? Thank you, Rod

Q: At the beginning of each year I like to invest in my tfsa first as I feel its the best investment vehicle I have. But my portfolio is very Canada heavy due to some selling at the end of the year. So I have a bit of dilemma in that I have funded my tfsa but the stocks I'd like to buy are american for diversification reasons. I do have a few Canadian stocks I'd like to buy but it will only add to my lack of geographic diversification. But I know my tfsa is not the best location for US stocks from a tax efficiency point of view. So my question is, what do you think is more important? Adding geographic diversification right away (buy a US stock in my tfsa) or the tax efficiency of my portfolio (Buy Canadian Growth and buy US later in the year).

Q: For growth and maximum return in a TFSA, would you suggest BCE with the good dividend or ATD.B as the riskier but more to gain investment? I know you don't have a crystal ball but based on your best research? Thanks

Q: Hi, if you had to let one of the above go tomorrow to free up a bit of cash, which one would you choose?

Q: What do you think of this stock moving forward? They seem to be gaining a bit of traction lately with their SAAS Elevate platform - Announcing a few contracts recently.
