Q: Hello 5i Team .
CSCO since August has been in a slow downward trajectory. What is possibly causing this. Is there some kind of seasonality affecting the stock at this time or is it something else such as future earnings? What is the potential if any over the next quarter or two? Is Cisco a buy, sell or hold? Thanks so much!

Q: With respect to Betty's question below on CGI, I think this sell off is simply because of the increased scrutiny CGI will be facing due to the poor roll out of Obamacare?? Recent article today in the Globe about it. This story does not seem to be going away any time soon, and rightfully or wrongfully, CGI's name will be run through the mud, both for the site STILL crashing, and the huge cost of the program. Obamacare will obviously be debated heavily over the next 3 months... referances to the poor roll out will be made by everyone, and CGI will be the one tied to it. Personally? I think it's just a good opportunity for those not it, to get in, but I'm a shareholder so take that with a grain of salt. Just my 2 cents.

Q: I'm usually looking for good dividend stocks for an income portfolio. I'm now considering a small (speculative) position in a new and very interesting technology, 3D printing. It started in plastics and is now moving into metals. I'm starting to agree that' it's going to be a real game changer. Are you following any stocks in this area, are there some strong leaders to consider investing in? With anything new I'm sure there's lots that are more fluff than substance.

Thanks John

Q: Constellation has been "A" rated and I think it's no secret it is the current favourite 5i Canadian stock for numerous reasons, great chart. I'd like to know what CSU would need to do to earn an "A+" rating to rise above its very few "A" peers; would a stock split help? If CSU can't make "A+" what non-Canadian company might be on the horizon for the "A+" rating, recognizing it's not your area of expertise? If I'd never heard of 5i I would not have been in CSU since $115 and since the initial purchase have averaged up, and I sure wouldn't be in "A" territory! Thanks, 5i.
