Q: Good day 5i Team, I have a diversified registered stock portfolio loosely mirroring 5i's balanced leaning toward growth stocks (with Europe & US dividend etf exposure). I am long term with this but am looking for hedge against any broad market declines. Can you briefly explain and recommend inverse etf's as a suitable hedge against this.
Thank you for your valued advice

Q: Hi there,

Thanks for the great service! I purchased KXS when it was added to the Balanced Equity portfolio at 5% weighting. It has performed well and is now about a 7% weighting in my portfolio. Their results are coming out shortly which I presume may have the ability to move the stock much higher or much lower. In your opinion, should I trim my 7% weight to 5% BEFORE or AFTER the results?

Thanks!

Q: We are elderly and fully invested in 23 dividend paying stocks now, and have full positions in TRP, IPL and PPL. I am considering selling IPL and PPL down to a 1/2 position, adding to my VET and AAR.UN to bring each of them to 2/3 pos'n and taking a 2/3 pos'n in EIF. I should add that our present portfolio is 28% in the green with nothing in the red and I manage it daily. Do my changes sound reasonable to you given the present environment? Thanks, Ted

Q: PHILLIPS 66 (PSX:NYSE)... I am looking for a combination of refiners for a pullback. The movement in the oil/gasoline is indicating that prices will retract again from current levels. I would like your thoughts on Phillips 66 and one other to hold for the next 12-18 moths. Consensus is looking at mid 2017 before the market really starts to get a hold of the supply side. Do you see this company able to grow revenues and possibly increase profitability?

Thank you
Jason N.
