Q: Peter and team, what is a good strategy for an RESP ? Child is 12. Account is $30k in a mix of individual stocks. Due to size of account and institution, trades are $25 per. Is there a few ETFs that make sense to replace individual equities, or would you mirror your model portfolio ? My apologies if this question has been answered before. I looked but could not find it. Thank you.

Q: what impact will the Dividend Reinvestment Plan have for dhx thanks
Q: I have a question re ETF's of U.S. stocks hedged to the C$. If the U.S.dollar appreciates significantly in relation to the C$ would the hedged ETF increase because of that with all other things being equal? Thank you.
Q: Hi Peter and Team: Do you think it is an appropriate time to buy a materials ETF, or should I wait?
On the subject of the number of questions: I think each question should pose essentially one focussed issue for your analysis. To ask for details on more than one stock is being greedy, but asking for a comparison of two similar stocks would be OK (in my opinion). Infrequent questioners who have multiple queries should pose multiple but separate questions.

Q: I just received a letter from lonestar about a special meeting to vote on changing the year end Which is okay. l noticed they are also proposing a stock option plan up to 10% of the floats. I like the idea of employees owning shares but is 10% a reasonable percentage. I would have thought 5% would be more reasonable. What is normal, reasonable while balancing incentives for employees while not watering down the # of shares.
I want to echo another reader concern. I write in very in frequently but may have multiple questions at that time.

Q: Peter; When I go to Investment and Company Questions I only see one (1) Question on DHX? Is this right? I can't believe you have had only one question today. Thanks.Rod
Q: I keep getting the message " there are no questions in this category" when trying to view investment and company questions. Is there something I am doing wrong?
Thank you
Thank you
Q: I am interested in the question from Gary and your answer re: ENB and ENF. According to the Globe website, ENB has a beta of -0.037 and ENF 0.513. This would suggest ENB has far less volatility than ENB. But first, what does the negative number on ENB mean and, are we comparing apples to apples?
Q: As a new member I would like to know more about the rating system.(B+,B,C+). Are differences significant and predictive of future corporate growth/stock price?
Q: Peter, some of the equities rated highly by you have very high price/earnings ratios. Is this not an indication that a stock may be overpriced?
Q: I see that you’re interested in receiving comments, tips and suggestions regarding your Q&A section. I’m wondering if it might be easier for your subscribers (and staff) to divide up the questions into sections. One section for questions pertaining to 5i Report Companies, another section for General Questions and one for answers to BUY/SELL/HOLD (Fear/Greed) Questions. Or whatever works. These sections would make it easier to browse any answers related to the area of interest. I note that the View By Category section is good, however it does not include all 5i Report questions (those that you have issued reports on). Excellent service.
Q: If I hold an ETF on U.S. stocks that's hedged to the C$,e.g.ZUB ,in a non-registered account in your opinion would the dividends be subject to U.S.withholding tax? Thank you.

Q: Morning to all.. my question involves dividend payouts. SYZ is paying out quarterly and this is due Dec 15th. After that date would it not be advantageous to buy into a monthly payer like IPL for two months taking advantage of their payout and then buy back into SYZ? Cycling for payouts ... could it work? TY.
Q: Hi, after firing my wife's financial advisor, I transferred all of her securities to a brokerage account (BMO). I have trimmed the weeds (there were a lot) and am left with one flower - PMT.DB.D which was bought at $72 and now fluctuates around $96. I'm not familiar with this security and am attempted to sell it and reinvest in a growth stock in her TFSA. Can you share your thoughts on this security, whether to hold or sell, and what I could replace it with in her TFSA?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Q: I think one question, one topic is a reasonable suggestion. We do not want this site to become a free for all forum, else Peter & crew would have no time to search and create report on new names. I believe we all signed up to find a new multi bagger. So please allow these folks to do their thing.
PS: I plead guilty for taking advantage of numerous questions in the past.

Q: Hello 5i and Members:
wading into the "questions" comments: one question per person should be enough, imho. But members, c'mon, please use the feature to search by symbol: if the company you're asking about has been asked about 3 times yesterday (this has happened), then surely you shouldn't have to ask again. Go back over all the questions and you should get a precise position of 5i's views. Peter, possibly when this type of thing occurs, you could direct the person more often than you do. Being a nice guy has to stop somewhere (parents will understand this!).
Great service, great price and some very good (great) questions. There are also the other kind lol.

Q: Why do existing shareholders never get a chance to participate in new IPO's? It seems to me, as a common curtesy, existing shareholders should get first chance. I am thinking of the recent issue by AVO.
Looking forward to your comments.

Q: TCF
CBM Asia Development Corp
I would very much appreciate if you could share your knowledge and experiences as to what a "memorandum of understanding" is. Particularly internationally among different countries, ie Indonesia.
Is it generally a binding contract, or more often than not do we see MOU's fizzle and disappear?
As an aside. Thanks for your service. You guys have helped me learn a lot about companies I initially wouldn't have looked at.
High risk High reward penny stocks aren't the only thing out there!!! But honestly, they're kind of addictive. Stupid or not, it's kind of seductive for a young guy (I'm not leaving them quite yet because I need another fix/hit). Actually that might make for an interesting article.
