Investment Q&A

Q: A number of anlaysts have this rated as a buy, what is your opinion?
Thanks

Q: Good morning if you had to own one of these in a long term RRSP which would you side with and why?

Thanks

Q: Good evening!
You mentioned this new company as 'small' in a previous comment, but they now appear as part of the TSX 60, notably number 2 on the list in dividend returns (to Telus). How can this be small and make that list?
Also, can you tell me what their payout ratio would be, referencing cash flow of course, not 'official' earnings.
As well, I asked another question about a week ago referencing which stocks to move into a TFSA from RIF. Did you receive that question?
Thanks!
Paul

Q: I’m doing a fairly major portfolio clean-up and account optimization exercise.
Specifically, I’m removing dividend-oriented and income-generating stocks from my TFSA and RRSP that are better suited to a non-registered account, and reallocating TFSA/RRSP capital to assets that benefit most from tax sheltering.

At a broad level, I’d appreciate your perspective on:

• Which CAD and USD names are best suited to an RRSP (e.g., U.S. dividend payers, global compounders, cyclicals, etc.)
• Which CAD and USD names are best suited to a TFSA (long-term growth, compounding, low income leakage)

I’m less interested in yield optimization and more focused on long-term after-tax efficiency and proper account placement.

If helpful, feel free to answer at a category level (e.g., “U.S. dividend aristocrats,” “Canadian compounders,” etc.) or with specific examples you think are particularly well-suited.

Thanks — looking forward to your thoughts.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i,
Like the momentum of both companies. Like the strong net cash position of TIH.
Which one would you pick of the 2 for the potential highest return over the next 5 years?
Is it FTT based on 5i starting a new position in your Balanced Portfolio? Or is it a coin toss?

Q: I would appreciate your guidance on investing available cash in my portfolio. I recently sold my NVIDIA holdings, and as a result, approximately 50% of my RRIF investments are currently in cash, and about 5% of my non-registered (open) investment accounts are also in cash. I currently hold VFV, VGRO and XIC in my open account along with approximately 20 equities. I do not currently hold any ETFs in my RRIF account. My objective is to fully invest this cash before the end of 2025. I would appreciate your recommendations on the following:
• Top five investment ideas (ETFs and equities) suitable for my RRIF account, and
• Top five investment ideas (ETFs and equities) suitable for my non-registered (open) account,
with the following parameters in mind:
• Investment horizon: 5 to 10 years
• Risk profile: Moderate
Thank you in advance for your assistance. I value your research and look forward to your recommendations. Best wishes to you and your team for the Holiday Season, and warm regards for a healthy and prosperous New Year.

Could you give me some examples of companies within those sectors that are strong companies fundamentally and have excellent upside potential. I

Q: I have been considering selling the following companies for tax loss. Do you think they are reasonable candidates? Or do you think there is too much bounce potential going into 2026.

Q: Hi Peter

I was wondering what you think of the valuation of WSP vs peers. Can you provide your metric to rate and the current valuation. Also would you buy at this level or what price level would you begin to buy. To me it looks expensive. I would appreciate your expert opinion.

Thank you
