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

Q: Hi 5i! I have been a long time holder of Manulife (MFC). Now with the prospect of rising interest rates, insurers are back in favour. Would you recommend holding on to MFC or making the switch to Sunlife (SLF). If not Sunlife, which would be your preferred insurer?

I am slowly turning over my portfolio to 5i's covered stocks and/or model portfolio!

Thanks for helping us retail investors!

Q: Hi Petr:

You recommended FSZ last week on BNN. I'm having trouble interpreting its P/E ratio of 165. I presume you are using something else instead of earnings as a comparator. Could you explain?

Q: I have positions in all 5 major banks, the largest in BMO as it pays the best dividend. The pundits all knock BMO, and they class TD and BNS well above it. But BMO lost the least % today of any of the banks. What is your thinking on banks?

Q: To increase the return of my financial equities I'm thinking of selling all my ZWB (BMO Covered Call Banks) and replacing it with an equal amount of TD and BNS. Is a 12 month total return of 8% reasonable? Thanks for the fantastic service. Paul

Q: Hi:
I bought HCG at around $ 52 recently, I understand that a group of people South of the border were shorting the stock, HCG fell from near $ 60 to the level where I bought it,
I am planning to hold it for at least 2 years to get the dividend
and hopefully enjoy abit of capital gain, do you think I should add more HCG at this stage ? Would it be a reasonable move?
Many thanks! have a good day
