Q: I held this company a fair while before the big acquisition. I sold for tax loss in Dec. and then bought back in Jan. for $16/sh; then, CV-19. They are still a major printer; so, I am thinking that they are not doing as much with all the closures. Do you think this is baked into the stock? How much debt. have they been paying off and do you think the dividend is sustainable? I am thinking of adding to my position - a tiny % of my total holdings of approx. 30 stocks.

Q: Hello 5i,
Thank you for providing a clear and modulated message through the past 2 months.
For a 5-10 year hold could you rank the top 10 highest (TSX) yielding stocks with the safest dividends. ( strongest balance sheet, lowest payout ratio, historical dividend growth, etc).
Could you also rank them separately in terms of bounceback / growth potential over the next 2 to 3 years?
There may be redundancy in this question vs others asked and the 5i portfolios - so please take as many credits as necessary.
Thank you

Q: I'm continuing to rebalance my portfolios. The above stocks are in my income portfolio and are less than full positions. Would you sell any of them? I have enough cash on hand to top up two of them. Which would you top up. (I hold 22 diverse stocks in this account)

Q: Wajax and Transcontinental have several things in common : mid single digit p/e, moderately high yield, relatively safe pay-out ratio, and a turnaround in earnings seems possible. Can you think of any other companies whose profile hits the 4 previously mentioned criteria. Thank you.

Q: Greetings 5i team,

May I please have your expert analysis on the earnings of these companies.
I have been holding EMP.A for a while and have good profit. Is it time to bail out or still a good investment?
Is it time to step in to TCL.A?

Thank you in advance and have a safe and fun holidays

Q: Hi. I own TCL.a in a non-registered account & NFI in a TFSA, both at a huge loss currently. My questions are:
1) What do you think is the risk of continuing to hold these stocks now?
2) What do you think of their potential over the next year and in the years beyond? Do you think they can recover?

Since NFI is inside my TFSA, should I sell it and buy something else? TCL.a could sell for a capital loss. If I have to sell either one, which one should go first? Or should I wait another quarter before doing so? Thanks for your help.

Q: TCL seems to be dropping a lot going into earnings and/or the news regarding the publisac issues in Montreal - it looks like a civic subcommittee has recommended banning this flyer distribution system though it is not a done deal (from what I have gathered). My question is: does TCL break out the revenue for Publisac? How material is this if it happens? Or is it more a case of yet another negative news item for a company that has been dealing with too many for too long.
