Q: My son is currently 39 years old and is trying to develop a solid diversified portfolio. All of his holdings are in his RRSP except for some money in a Tangerine International growth fund which is in his TFSA. He has some new funds to add to his holdings. Could you please recommend some companies from your model portfolios that would add more diversification to his portfolio keeping in mind his relatively long investment horizon. As always, thanks for your advice.

Q: Hi5I
We are giving our 3 grandchildren $5000.00 each, so they can each open a TFSA account. Our intention is to give them the same amount for the following three years.
Considering the size of the deposit, and the fees for the accounts, your recommendation on where to open the accounts and what to buy inside the accounts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks MJ

Q: Hi there,
Where could I find out what percentage of royalty income in SLW comes from what commodities (or maybe you know). i.e. what percent from silver, gold etc. I have emailed SLW but they don't respond. Thanks.

Thank you for you great advice.

Q: I am curious as to your current thoughts on Red Eagle? Now that they have reached commercial production, their current presentation states that they are trading at 3.1x 2017 Cash Flow, compared to a peer average of 11.6x implying a 73% discount.
Aside from this, they have lots of expansion potential at their current mine, and have three other prospects in the wings with lots of cash. What am I missing?

Q: Hello 5i:
I would like to have a better understanding about market sectors that are benefiting from higher inflation, and sectors that are preferable when inflation is lower than expected. Is it possible to make such a clear cut categorization, and if yes, in which sectors shuld I invest during inflationary and deflationary times?

Q: Good day...I am lucky enough to have a fairly large portfolio that is 70% in your balanced portfolio and 10% in various growth and income stocks you have in the other two portfolios. I also have 20% of my portfolio in u.s. stocks. My question is whether or not I should have any emerging market exposure or are the companies in your three portfolios have enough already. I look forward to your thoughts on this...

They just recently announced what appears to be a good acquisition, and they pay a good dividend. Do you know what is the cause for such negative volatility, and the setting back of the share price over the past few weeks?

Q: I have been reading many of your answers to members' questions about BAM. You seem to really like the company but it's not in any of your model portfolios. Why not? If you were to include it in one of the models, which would it be? Which sector does BAM fit into? As always thanks for your guidance.
Q: I see that Teck is held by a significant number of institutions. This surprises me as it seems to have been a pretty wild ride recently. Is this indicative of this sector? Would most of these companies have a long term hold? Has Teck been an institutional hold for a long time, or just recently? Or how do they make owning Teck work for them? In this sector must one constantly have one eye on the commodity price?
