Q: Hello,

I hold BNS:CA for dividends. It has been dropping in price recently and I am looking to add to my position. I seem to remember it is a long term favourite within the bank stocks. Given the current Canadian and global "uneasieness", would your opinion change or would shift to TD:CA or XXX:CA (a bank) be in order. I have read the recent Q/A re: BNS:CA in the database,

Q: Any stocks dropping that you feel represent a good buying opportunity? Perhaps something being sold that is an ‘overreaction’ or will look like a good buy in a year or so from now? Thanks

Q: Propel stock had, lately been doing well, hitting a high of $42, late January, after an analyst upgrade. Today, a month later, it has done full circle, back to $34.50, where, it was trading since October, 2024.

Is this just profit taking or a shadow of the big brother GSY ( just reported ), in your view, or something has changed ( Trump jitters ) ?

Do you still continue to expect excellent growth ( UK acquisition etc ) and would be comfortable adding after this pullback ?

Thank You

Q: I own TOU and TPZ and like them both for long term holds. TOU was recently added to the 5i income portfolio. Why go with TOU as apposed to TPZ, which is more of an income structured investment. Do you feel that TOU will offer a better total long term return both with respect to their dividend and capital appreciation?

Thanks.

Q: Hello 5I, I am in my late 30s and have been a contractor my entire working life. Seeing as I have no pension, my business account is essentially my retirement fund. If you could pick 10 stocks (doesn’t matter if they are Canadian, American, or international), as potential retirement stocks (some combination of capital appreciation and yield), to potentially live off of 15 years down the road, what would they be? I do have a TFSA and RRSPs invested more aggressively.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5I Team,

What are your thoughts at this time on International Petroleum? With its sustained share buyback program the outstanding float is being constantly reduced. Would this factor make it a compelling investment?

Thanks
