Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: HCG recently announced leadership appointments such as New CIO, SVP Underwriting and SVP Human Resources. Looks like they are building a long-term strategic team to lay the foundation for growth and managing operations effectively.
In this context how does 5i view the developments.
Two key questions here.
1) What would you recommend for existing investors and what advise would you give for new investors looking at making a stock purchase
2) What impact can we expect in the next couple of quarters or say year 2018 in terms of earnings and business outlook? Will the new appointments and personnel costs have significant impact on earnings in near term?

Q: Hi,
I have many of my stocks enlisted in DRIP. I am a long term investor and don't need to draw on any of the dividends right now and have a well diversified portfolio. What types of stocks would be ideal or better to enlist as DRIP? Growth stocks don't really pay dividends so we can probably ignore those. Comparing stocks such as AQN, GSY, SIS, ECI, SGY, etc..how would you rank them for DRIP or would they all be fine?? I have many stocks that pay decent dividends but I'm trying not to continue to drip in losing stocks where I can invest those dividends elsewhere.

Thanks, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!
