Q: Hi, Transcontinental Inc shares are down almost 20% within less than a week, due to an unexpected hit on earnings mostly caused by delay in Coveris contribution. From a long term perspective and with cushion of dividend yield of 3%, does it make sense and would you be comfortable to take advantage of the dip and overweight to 5-6% for income and growth. Thanks

Q: Greetings! I am looking to add to my TFSA (long term), holdings that have good yield and strong dividend growth. I was considering either AQN or EMA, or should I divert from utilities and go with something with more potential for capital appreciation, TCL?
thank you!

Q: Can you comment on QBR in relation to its prospects related to its redemption notice of outstanding 4.125% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures due October 15, 2018. It had good results recently and I am questioning whether there are better alternatives such as Transcontinental.
Kirkland Lake and gold have recently lost their lustre ad momentum. In light of the political chaos globally, is this a hold or can you suggest other options in the mining space?
Thank you!

Q: Good day to all. I am looking for a few very good value stocks. It seems that many investors are beginning to do the same. I am well diversified so your answer could include any sector and dividends are not that important but would be a nice bonus.
Thank you
Have a great weekend

Q: I have a well diversified portfolio using a passive index strategy. I have the above stocks in my TFSA to boost the total portfolio return. Thanks to 5i that has worked well. My current TFSA holdings are listed and I am up at least 15% on the first 5 stocks listed and plus / minus 5% on the last 5 stocks listed. I am in my early 70's and feel I don't want to spend as much time on the TFSA investments. Can you give me up to 10 buy and forget growth names for the TFSA and if some of the listed stocks are included in your list then so much the better. Thanks

Q: As a follow-up to Larry's question on July 10, which pre-supposed my own, I had one more point: I am looking for two companies which will need to be cashed out in 2 years. Do these two fit the bill, or would you recommend something else? Just looking for growth. Dividend not important. Feel free to suggest two others which might have more bang for the bucks. Sectors not important, as I'm well-diversified and comfortable with present portfolio, thanks to 5I of course. : )

These two new positions would be "mad money" undertakings. Thanks.
