Q: I plan to buy 1 or 2 of the subject stocks in a TFSA for a term hold (5 years or more unless something changes). I see each of these stocks as medium risk with good growth rates. Would you agree with my risk assessment? Please rank in your view of highest to lowest potential growth rates.

Q: Greetings 5i team,
I hold these seven companies in my TFSA in roughly equal amounts. I would like to add WELL to my TFSA. Would it be wise to shave a bit from all of the companies listed in order to do so?
Or, do you see a better solution to achieve this (ie. SELL one / two of the other positions in favour of WELL)?
Thank you as always.

Q: Hello 5i team,
I wanted to add to my WPM holding and was wondering if it is still ok to add at these levels?

For MG, it has taken a hit in the past year and wanted to initiate a position at this level, are you still comfortable with Magna or is there something more fundamental going on.

Thank You,
Anrew

Would you consider one or more to be a good core holding for a retired reasonably conservative investor? How would 5i rank your most preffered North Amercan railroads please? Thanks in advance?

Q: I see that you and many analysts use forward PE instead of trailing when valuing a company. I understand that trailing PE is the recent past earnings, and forward PE is obviously the projected future earnings. But wouldn't it make more sense to use the trailing since its recent actual earnings, when the forward earnings are at best a projection or estimate, which is often quite wrong? Just curious why the industry standard seems to be the more inaccurate of the two. Probably because markets are forward looking, but I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thx
