Q: Greetings 5i,

What are your thoughts on BAD? Off of its 52 week lows it seems to be moving in the right direction.

Cheers!

Q: This stock is being dropping over a month while the sector is moving up, anything wrong with this stock? I have the stock and am under the water. Should I hold or sell move on?

Thanks,

Q: Can you tell me what the earnings per share have been for Richard's Packaging for the previous 12 months and if it is a reasonable expectation to have that earnings per share number climb by 10% for the 12 months going forward?

Also, what does Richard's Packaging debt profile currently look like?

Thanks.

John

Q: Hi guys.
Feeling a bit deflated. I joined pretty recently and decided to take a chunk of cash and put into your highest rated stocks above. In a short couple of months I am down almost 10%. Every one has lost money. Are they still all in favour. Do I just plug my nose and wait? Also, I have some short term cash I need to park. Was going to put half in Apple with the recent pull back....thoughts? Any other ideas for a two month hold?
thank you

Q: You have been pro PBH for sometime - and I have done OK with that (thanks). What is your opinion now in view of the Amazon/Wholefoods scenario?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

Magna has been declining for a week. Was it because the trade talks between the US and Canada or other issues? Is it buyable now?

Regards,
Jim

Q: Could 5i please list the companies that are no longer followed or no longer in portfolios due to under-performance? The dates they were pulled would be great too. Thank you.

Q: Regarding today's decrease in the price of CCL.B you responded to a question "CCL has done a secondary bought deal of $333 million at a discount". I must admit that I do not understand the answer, nor do I understand why this would cause a significant drop in the price of a stock. I would greatly appreciate clarification of your answer. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter Do you feel that the whole food deal should have any effect on PBH To my understanding they play in different sand boxes
Kind Regards
Stan

Q: As a conservative investor/retiree with a diversified portfolio looking for income and some growth, I am considering Enbridge (now own TRP). Sources mention Enbridge's pipeline of growth opportunities and anticipated 10% - 12% annual dividend increases through 2024. These projections "feel" optimistic, given the large debt taken on to acquire Spectra? Does 5i feel the debt/equity mix was appropriate on the Spectra purchase? Does 5i see any reason to be concerned about "culture clash" between the management groups or other integration risk? Thank you for your comments. Edward

Q: Hello 5i,
I've held finning for a long time and recently sold it and wish to replace with byd.un.
I think I read that byd.un raised financing in may 2017. Does that mean it will NOT need to raise more to close its' recent purchase?
If byd does need more financing:
Who would do this deal? Who did the financing for byd in the past?
Where would you expect the share price to adjust on the announcement of such a deal (provide a typical range or 5is best guess based on past deals)
Would more debt suppress the share price for the next 12 months?
In a volitile market would byd bonds be worth holding ?
Many thanks

What is the reason for the current slide

Q: Hello Your A rating and recent report on Cineplex using the word "Monopoly" got me interested in the Sector. Would purchasing shares in AMC Entertainment be worse, equal to, or better than buying Cineplex given the lower valuation of AMC and scale that AMC has? ceteris paribus on the dividends and exchange risk aside. Thanks very much

Q: Would you buy at these levels or wait for further declines?

Q: Hi,
I looked at the Thomson Reuters Report dated for today's date - 2017-06-15. On page 3 of the report it shows the 12 month Price Target mean price as $10.10 with a a Target vs Current upside of +15.4%.
The problem is TCN is currently already at $11.55 as I write this. How can they put a report out with todays date calling for 15.4% upside when the price is already beyond their highest 12 month target price?
I thought the Thomson Reuters Reports were a nice "confirmation" tool as they rate Tricon a "10" but now I don't know if these reports are even worth looking at. I have noticed other similar anomalies in other stock reports with them. Can you clarify what is going on here?
Thanks.

Q: Any comments on the 5%+ drop today. Would you recommend adding to this level. The stock is up 90%+ in last one year so would this be profit taking? I do not see any negative news. Thank you for the answer.

Q: adding to the pile of questions on ENB that you have been getting lately :) I gather the stock is down almost 12% YTD excl dividends due to lower oil prices and also being a sort of bond proxy so as rates rise people look elsewhere for equivalent risk free yield. The current yield, based on a full year at the current quarterly payment rate, is close to 5% and the company has stated a clear path to raising the dividend in the future. While short term rates are rising it doesn't look like long term rates are moving in the same direction. Given the spread between ENB dividend and long term bond rates do you feel investors are getting enough of a premium to invest in ENB and would you be a buyer here for a 5-10 year hold?

Q: Which stocks in your opinion are undervalue and which one you think are
very volatile for traders?Knowing that you don't encourage trading.

Q: Good afternoon 5i,
I recently sold AW.UN in my RRIF as I am trying to limit the non-portfolio holdings. Could you recommend a replacement from the income portfolio or should I just buy it back? Already hold most of the Income Portfolio holdings but willing to sell in other accounts to insert in RRIF.Thanks for the always helpful advice.
