Q: Good morning.

I am down 35% on CSW.A with an effective yield of 4.4% on the purchase price. It is my cash account.

Is there really any point in continuing to hold this one? From reading answers to previous questions it does not appear there is any significant growth potential.

I think it would be best to take the capital loss and buy a BNS, BCE or ENB. Even with the loss I would make more income.

Your thoughts please.

Thanks.

Q: hi, can I get your current thoughts on CSW.A at this time. do you suspect it could start to move up in price with small caps soon? or are people not drinking their "spirits" so much anymore ( large capital depreciation over time ). do you have any other suggestions in the consumer defensive sector (cdn or us) with a good sized dividend and a better growth profile? cheers, chris

Q: Hi 5i Guys

I've owned BIP/BIPC for several years and done well with it. But with all the new Brookfield offerings and re-structuring I don't know if it's still best for me. Looking for both Dividends and Growth and sticking with Brookfield, should I stay with BIP/BIPC or is there a better stock to purchase in the Brookfield family?

Thanks Ken

Q: The Fidelity International Value index ETF has done very well over the past year. Its seems like value style of investments has performed better then growth/ momentum style in the last year for the global sector. Do you think this trend will continue for international stocks or is it the other way round. Looking forward for the next 2-3 years would interest rates going down be more of a favorable environment for the valve stocks?

Thank you so much in advance.

Q: Looking to invest a portion of available cash into solid smallish-cap companies that have yet to move towards their fair value that could be reached in a more positive part of the cycle - which I am guessing/assuming is coming. Please provide suggestion in either Canadian and/or US markets.

Q: Hello 5i team,
You mentioned in a question about the balance portfolio that some equities are on watch based on their slow or bad performance. One of these was CAE. It has been in a negative momentum decline since early 2021.

What are your thoughts about continuing to hold this stock going into 2024? It has a pretty decent backlog but will most if it come to fruition?

Thank You,
Andrew
