Q: Hi Team,

Is it a good idea to have a stop loss order for some of the high volatility stocks such as PHO, RHT, COV, TSGI and tech stocks and what should it be set at.

Thanks

Q: Interested in your thoughts on Laurentian Bank. The stock price has been in a steady decline for the past year despite a dividend much higher than the Big 5 banks.
Is that dividend safe and how would you rate an investment in Laurentian compared to one of the big banks. Also do you see any prospects for an increase in the stock price.
Thanks as always!

Q: Hi 5i team.

I'm primarily an income oriented investor and have over half of my portfolio in cash right now due to selling a house. I have a full position (which is 4% for me) of ENB (through ENB and ENF). I'm thinking of adding gradually building a full position in TRP as well. Do you see enough difference in the two pipeline companies to justify owning both and is 8% too heavy for that sector.

Thanks
Peter
