Q: I need in increase my portfolio weightings in Consumer Cyclical and Utilities. I currently hold AQN, BIP.UN and FTS in Utilities in roughly equal amounts and hold QSR and LNF for Consumer Cyclical with QSR double the holding of LNF. Should I add to my current positions to increase my weighting in both sectors or consider adding new stocks?

Q: Hi Guys / Gals,

A couple of quick questions.

1/ SGY.CA - bought 5,000 at $0.73. Does it have further upside potential in near term or should I just bail.

2/ CSH.UN.CA - buy, sell or hold for income?

Thanks so much as usual.

Q: Hello 5i I own 2000 shares of IPL and am confused with the 4 options that the shares must be submitted to in the BIPC 20.00 per share takeover. My cost is 24.00 per share. I think BIPC has room to appreciate in share price and there yield is around 3.5% what do you think about BIPC as an investment. So I have to maybe report a tax loss depending on the option I pick. Could you comment on each 4 options the pro's and cons. Also what is the clarification of "Eligible Electing Shareholders Only" which is stated in option's 3 and 4.

Q: goood morning - i have full positions in NWC and PBH. NWC has been steady, with a bit of growth. PBH has done well. I am thinking of selling both and buying QSR for both growth and income. Would you consider this to be a net upgrade in position? Thanks

Q: Hello Team.. I am over weight in banks and considering selling either RY, BMO or BNS and starting a position in MG. I am considering magna as a play on the EV space-does this sound reasonable? Thank You and Best Regards. gary

Q: Bought MG about two months ago and down 15%. I suspect in part it's due to the global chip shortage. If this is indeed the case, I am not reassured by NVDA's recent comment that they anticipate the chip shortage to last through to the end of 2022. To what do you attribute the decline...and when - and why - would you anticipate a turnaround? Is MG a buy, sell or hold? Thank you.

Q: What is the strategic value of BIPC acquiring IPL? Most pipelines have under performed (stock price performance) the past 5 years. Oil is not a growth industry. Why not buy a renewable energy name like NPI instead? Also, how significant is the deal relative to its entire portfolio? Is there anyway to get a % revenue/earnings breakdown of the industries BIPC is involved with?
