Q: Hello 5i: Further to Harvey's question on ARF. If insiders were given the financials, would this indicate a leak? What are your thoughts on this company as it has fallen a long way from its glory days in 2010 and 2011 and still hanging in there? I would appreciate your comments on my two questions.
Thank you

Q: Good Morning 5i
Not your usual question but important - wonder if you can recommend a software program to assist with retirement planning. Looking for a program that will take inputs of pensions, income and RRSPs - then enable projecting futures years taxes and net income based on those numbers. Want to be able to change inputs to look at different outcomes in key years of retirement cycle. XL would be preferable.
Thanks for any comment.

Q: I have been a very happy member for a couple of years and an avid reader of the questions and blogs. However, I am still confused by what you mean when you say that something is a "3 - 5" year hold. To me, an investor is someone who buys a stock because the company looks solid and has good growth prospects. Otherwise, you are a trader and looking for a quick flip. So by definition, isn't any investor looking to hold until there are fundamental reasons to sell? So why do
you sometimes emphasize the time frame, especially given your stated philosophy of being a momentum investor? I have come to learn given the workings of the market that just because you suggest a stock today doesn't mean it is going up tomorrow, but shouldn't we expect that stock to go up during the year? Or does the 3 - 5 year positioning mean that is when you expect it to reach its maturation from being a growth stock to a an income stock?

Thanks so much for the education.

Q: Hi,just a comment,but maybe make a rule to limit each Q to one specific company or topic,seems like people are asking about 10 different companies or sectors in 1 Q to circumvent the system/rules imo,and 2)any chance we could put stock price beside company at time of question,just couple of thoughts.Thanks again for great service,jb

Q: hello 5i team,
i have heard you mentionning how utilities will be hit when there is a rise in interest rates. It has made me wonder whether i should take some action now. I have about 7 per cent in the utility sector. of that 7 per cent, about 4.5 per cent is composed of Emera. Well, when i look at my portfolio i have two questions:
the first is should I take some out of utilities altogether at this point and put it in another sector?

if it is a good idea to stay the course, would I be best to sell some emera and buy, say, bem.un? I do own some Enbridge,aswell. Or, given that this is a fairly secure sector, is there possibly not much value in diversification?
