Q: Hi 5i,
Received my 5i subscription as a birthday present and I'm truly loving it.
My wife's former employer's managed RSP portfolio has been transferred (all in cash) and consolidated into her general RSP fund; she is now sitting with the following positions:
FC.DB.C 3.1%
CNQ 2.9%
VET 3.8%
EFN.N 4.4%
HCG 4.2%
DIV 4.6%
RAM770 6.4%
CASH 70.6%
What appropriate equities from your Model Portfolios would fill in the holes as to sector/asset allocation and what would be a suitable cash position? To date, we have researched and like the following equities: BNP, WSP, GUD, NPI, CCL.B
Thanks for your help,
Dean

Q: What are your thoughts on this company. They would appear to be at an attractive entry price but they are attached to the O&G sector and was wondering if the team feel they will drop more so maybe it is better to wait until the sector shows sustainable growth

How do you feel about stop losses and if you use them how do you determine where to set them? Lately I have been wrestling with trailing stops, and trying to move my stops with as the price rises. What do you think?
Thanks Brian

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
I'm hanging on to FSV for a while longer until I decide what to do (keep FSV, keep CIG, keep both, sell both. A cursory comparison between the 2 divisions indicate that Colliers was more profitable in 2014 with EBITDA to Revenue ratio of 9.8% vs 7.5% for FSV; a hardly sufficient basis of comparison.
What intrigues me is your rational for shedding the old FSV a couple of months ago.
You're suggesting to hang on for a while longer; but how will one decide what to do next?
Thanks,
Antoine
