Q: Hi,

The last question on Worthington was 2017 - can I get your updated view on it?

I understand it is spinning off its steel division to focus on the less volatile consumer products division. They apparently have a very good relationship with Home Depot for their propane tanks, etc.

It’s small but is there an interesting opportunity there?

Thank you,

Q: I am an investor with a long-term view and have always oriented my investment decisions towards growth stocks. I'm retired and I'm starting to want to take less time and decision-making as I get older. I know you are not tax specialists but your answer will surely be enlightening.
I wonder what is the cheapest mode of taxable income between a capital gain and a dividend paid in a taxable account for a Canadian citizen earning less than $80,000 per year.

THANKS

Q: Hi
Wondering about your latest addition to the growth portfolio. Curious as to this selection as the fundamentals are awful, with negative cash and operating flow and negative EPS. I assume this is a mock portfolio but do any of the contributors of 5i have any skin in the game especially in a high risk name such as GLXY?
I assume a 1.5% holding would be $1500 in a $100,000 portfolio.
Thanks
Jeff
