Q: Hi own ZEB in my RSP and am thinking of increasing bank exposure by purchasing something for a TFSA (no banks yet in TFSA). Would you recommend more ZEB or instead going with BNS? Am thinking of about $5000.00 exposure. Thanks, Bill

Q: Ivernia - IVW TSE
IVW is a pure play for Lead, and as commodities go, Lead has been performing well. The boom in car production bodes well for Lead, both in emerging markets and developed. Magna and the likes of GM, Ford Toyota have already had big moves, would the guys mining the Lead from the ground be an untapped way to gain exposure to the automotive market?

Q: I have a comment rather than a question.

From the chorus of gratitude expressed, you can tell how valued 5i service is. I certainly join the choir and I particularly value this question/answer section. Ironically that is my source of concern.

My concern is that the volume of questions is becoming so high that you will be forced to suspend this part of the service. I would find that a major loss.

I would hope that if volume is becoming a problem, you would consider other approaches rather than suspending the section. I would consider eliminating questions on the US, restricting the number of companies per question to one and/or restricting the number of questions one individual may ask.

I would love the question section to continue as it is but if any problem develops I would certainly prefer restrictions to losing it completely.

Q: I currently hold only 6 companies in my TFSA. T.TO, TOG.TO, RFC.V, CSU.TO, STN.TO and BEP-UN.TO. I want to sell off a portion of my gains from this year and also add a bit more capital to add two or three more stocks to this portfolio. My goal is to eventually have 10 good stocks to manage in this portfolio. Do you have any suggestions of stocks to add that would both add diversity and growth potential?

Thanks

Q: I thought Santonia Energy was a respectable company...I notice the stock just crashed by about 20%. Is it just the price and over supply of gas which significantly reduces profits? Can the company survive until the price improves? Any chance gas prices will improve within the next year? What do you think? Thanks...I always appreciate your insights!

Q: Western Forest Products Inc WEF:TSX
the above has had quite a run would you buy it for some growth and income. not over weight in the sector and realize it is cyclical.
your service is great and allowed me to take over from one of my advisers. It simply knows quality ( not full proof as expected see ATP) You do not compromise your opinion. it serves me and the private investor very well.
thanks
