Q: Hi Peter and team,
My US investment portfolio is 20% of my combined portfolios. In my Canadian (registered and non) I mostly have stocks from the 5i growth portfolio.
My US investments are full positions in VIG, BRK.B, IWO, QQQ, SLW & INTC and half position in FEZ. I also hold CRUS, VOD, VZ and GT.
I would like to get your thoughts(outlook) for the next 2 to 3 years considering the interest rates may be going(US) up and QE in Europe.
I am thinking of increasing my FEZ to full position but I have to sell something. In your opinion how should I rebalance my portfolio?

I value your opinion and really appreciate what you all do for retail investors like us.

Thanks

Q: Hello Peter & Team,

Have you come across these foreign companies in the tech sector and, if so, is there any opinion you could offer on their current financials and future prospects as they are expanding globally, although they are still relatively small. Any information you have would be relevant and a good starting point for further investigation, or not, depending on your answer!.

Thank you.

Q: We currently hold Vale and are down substantially. We are wondering if we should sell Vale (and take the tax loss this year) and buy Altagas and Whitecap with these funds. We are currently about 14% in energy and 34% in financials with the balance over utilities, telecoms and reits. Would appreciate your thoughts on this transaction or a better recommendation.

Q: Hi Guys

Took over a 50% Haircut on Morrison Supermarkets in the U.K. Sold it in early October, with the idea I would use it for a tax loss and then re-purchase it after 30 days.
My feelings are mixed now that the position has been sold for close to a month, I know the competition is fierce with the arrival of the discounters, you only have to look at Tesco.Do you see value in Morrison at these levels considering they could monetize some of the real estate value of their grocery stores.
Thanks Gord

Q: 5I Team,

I would appreciate getting your view on North Atlantic Drilling Ltd (NADL). The share price has really been hammered in the recent correction and I'm wondering if now is a good entry point and whether the yield is too high to be sustainable.

Thanks,
