Investment Q&A

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

Q: Do all four of these have dividends that are taxed differently and therefore shouldn't be in a non-registered? Does this apply to a TFSA as well, as foreign income I believe is taxed in a TFSA?

Where should I hold each of these? in an RRSP, TFSA or non-registered?

Q: i am thinking about full position in both SIS and PBH. I bought a little SIS before Xmas but wonder if I should move in another direction on these 2 as they have done very well recently. I have been contemplating for a while but wonder if I should wait for a pull back. Would KXS or GSY be another option? I am not to heavy in any of these sectors.
On another note I bought SHOP a while back, thanks! Your team has been a wealth of knowledge.

Q: Team,
Just like your thoughts on the listed stocks and which you would add ( in some order of preference) to an existing portfolio skewed to secure dividends and modest growth with a target 7-8% combined dividend and growth. Conversely is any one a definite NO.
Thx

I'm now looking for a little torc in my dividend portfolio. Could you recommend 4 or 5 names of good dividend stocks where one might expect higher than average growth over the next 3 years. Sectors not important.

Many thanks,

Q: Hi, folks
I'm very new to 5i Research, and trying to get myself orientated around.
I have some questions on the balanced portfolio
1) with less capital like $50k, what your recommendations on how to follow this portfolio?
2) when there is a add/remove in the portfolio, how quickly I will be notified?
3) in the report, when you add or trim a position, do you provide at what price to buy or sell?
4) for how long I need to hold the stocks in your portfolio? Do I need to have a stop loss/trailing stop to max my gain and minimize my loss?
5) what is the average holding period for a stock in this portfolio roughly? You can give me a range the longest to the shortest...
6) to initiate to build this portfolio for my own, is it better to wait for the market to pull back? or Do you have a recommendation about when to buy?

By the way, is it ok for me to ask questions about stocks/ETF's outside Canada or large cap's inside/outside Canada (I know you guys are focus on mid to small caps)

Thanks a lot!
Jane

Q: Saputo has been very weak as of late,m with the dairy disputes stock has lost approx 7 percent in the past few trading days alone. What do you think of the situation? Would you step in? Or would you let the waters settle first (as in not catching a falling knife).

Many thanks

Q: I own BEP.UN, BAM.A, BIP.UN and BGI.UN. Clearly I like the company.
Currently I am looking to deploy new money into the "income component" of my portfolios and am looking for a global real estate investment. I like the international aspect and the dividend of BPY.UN; and seee this as a long term hold.
Are there other quality players out there whether listed in Canada or on the US exchanges that would be better choices?
Or would you endorse BPY.UN?
Thanks again for your helpful guidance.
