Q: I bought into both of these companies last year and am down about 50% (along with the rest of the sector). In spite of the overall sector performance what would be your expectation of these 2 companies for this year and next? Should I get out while there is still something left and reinvest into something considerably less volatile or is there a chance these companies can still make a comeback in the short term?? Thanks

Q: We have given our 19 year-old Son $12K to maximize his TFSA. I have advised him to watch North American ETFs, now that we are at the top of the economic cycle. Can you recommend a few individual Canadian stocks with a 6+ year time horizon? Would you recommend any International, European or developing world ETFs?
Thank you!!

Q: How would you view this company and stock? I read the the Ontario Teachers Pension has increased it's holdings by quite a bit recently as well as other investors and analysts commenting they are warming up to BB. Can you also comment on their autonomous driving applications or other projects they are involved in? This would be a long term purchase 5-10 years. Thanks as always

Q: Good Afternoon,

I’m typically a contrarian stock buyer. With the stock market at record levels right now, would you suggest wait for a pullback or do you have any stocks that I should consider buying? Thank you.

Q: Hello Gentlemen,
I own shares of all 4 of these companies and considering selling 3 of them and dumping all of it into FAF.
Or shall I hang on to all of them and see if I break even over time.
Total shares is about 2.5 % of my portfolio.
Your input would be appreciated.
Thank you

Q: I started half positions in these company’s last week. Do you think it would be best to buy full positions now or wait for a little pullback?

Q: We have the following in our RESP: ABT, BNS, NFI, ENB, TRP, PIF, MX, and BEP.UN and ~$4,000 in cash. The grandkids are now 6 and 5. As you can see, no particular philosophy has been at work so far. What might you suggest adding to the mix? Is there anything that should be sold?

Thanks, Bob.

Q: In our RESP we now have: MX, NFI, BNS, PIF, ABT, TRP, ENB and BEP.UN. The kids are still young (6 and 5). We have ~4K to invest now and wonder what you might think would be a good addition. Are there some you would delete?

Thanks for your wonderful service, Bob.

Q: Hi 5iR team, Many brokerage houses start each New Year by attempting to consolidate their best stock ideas for the year in a comprehensive list.....their Conviction List. I'm wondering if I may ask 51R to do the same? If I was to canvas the 5iR Staff stock experts what would the majority agree on to be your best 5 stock ideas, give or take a few, for 2020? Thanks team. Chris

Q: I need to increase my Cons Disc and my Real Estate allocations. I currently hold GC and DRA.UN. Do you have any other suggestions of a Balanced Equity nature for each sector. Risk is not a concern.

Thank You for your great service
