Manulife Financial Corporation (MFC $50.56)
-
Great-West Lifeco Inc. (GWO $67.82)
-
Sun Life Financial Inc. (SLF $65.27)
Q: From the answers I have gleaned over those 3 insurers you seem to be favoring SLF over the other two, from a volatility & performance perspective (over 1 and 5 years) it would appear that SLF is worse. Can you give your reasons why as you obviously see SLF of better quality fundamentally going forward.

Q: How would you compare these two, HMAX has a DY 0f 12.57% and ZWB is 5.38%. They have similar MER's. Is HMAX more 'risky?'. They appear to be in similar investments.
Q: Hi 5i Team,
Are there any company-specific issues to account for yesterday's 4.28% decline in the share price of QBR.B, and the larger 6.87% decline for Telus?
A 5i member recently expressed his frustration with Telus, a view that I share.
I own both of these stocks, and have been pleased with the performance of QBR.B. With Telus, not so much!
To maintain the same weighting in the sector, I plan to sell Telus, and use the proceeds to buy more QBR.B. Your thoughts?
Thanks as always for the guidance.

Q: I have read your answer to a previous question on the recent TRI stock split. I am not a professional and don’t understand what is going on. Is there there is any downside to just keeping my stock and doing nothing?
Q: Performance over the last year has indicated a price increase in excess of 20%. do you anticipate continued increase and if so why?

Q: The negatives I see for investing in MOS are:
- Operational and Production Issues
- Brazilian Credit Risks
- 2026 class-action lawsuit alleging price-fixing
- Surging sulfur input costs
Are any of these a major concern going forward to make you want to shy away from MOS as an investment?
Do you have any concern about balance sheet or free cash flow?
I see that P/S, P/C, and P/B are at the historic low end. What is actually the best metric for this company?
How would its rating compare to NTR? I'm guessing NTR would be rated roughly a "B" or "B+" ?

Brookfield Corporation Class A Limited Voting Shares (BN $58.35)
Q: Hi 5i
I am tempted to sell BEP.UN to buy more BN. BEP.UN is about 1% of port., BN about 1.7%. BEP.UN is at 52 week high and often pulls back to under 40 from here. BN is well off its high so going forward, I see it with better total return potential. Have held both for many years. I am starting to hear rumblings of private equity/private credit/mark to market problems, which make me a little hesitant on BN. Also the BEPC/BEP.UN discrepancy has narrowed somewhat so I'm not sure how this factors in. I look forward to your thoughts.
Thanks, Greg
