Q: Good morning 5i. My TFSA has re-trenched from a high of 108 k down to the low 90k's. My holdings were all good growth stocks but gone are TOY, SIS, NFL P.B.. I will jettison CAE this week. So I'm left with Go Easy, Boyd, and Kinaxis with a lot of cash. I will ad Bama, and Atd.B. Can you suggest 5 more dividend payers with some growth prospects for a 3 to 5 year hold. Many thanks .david

Q: It is a shame that you have published the following nasty question : ''With the Bloc doing so well in the election and the PM sure to lavish our taxes their way, what companies generate a lot of income from Quebec, and/or are candidates for charity ? Thanks.'' It does not seem to be an intelligent and respectful discussion.

Q: Hi Team,

I am looking to do a covered call strategy on growth stocks you like that have reasonably liquid options markets and high implied vol. What are your five favourite "long-term hold" CAD and USD stocks where such a strategy could be implemented?

Was looking at AYX as an example where you can create some interesting downside protection scenarios selling 1yr calls at strikes approximately 10% higher than current price that still give you a 20-35% total return if the stock rips higher through your strike.

Thanks

Q: Three months ago a .20 EPS quarter sent GSB to the $14's. Today, a .19 EPS quarter sent GSB to the $9's. Sales are up from last year, Gross Margin is up from last year, Costs are coming down, EPS is up over last year. They have zero debt, $13M in the bank, excellent FCF and high insider ownership. I can't see a problem with this company at all. Is the drop a "sell on news" story. The stock can be volatile and is a small cap security. Is it buyable in your opinion at these levels?

Do you think the US reits is a good area to look into seeing as the US economy seems to be doing well and interest rates are low. Thanks
