Q: I have some American cash that I would like to put to work but am hesitant to buy American stocks. I know there are Canadian companies that are listed in the United States. My question is, which Canadian companies that are listed in the U.S. would you buy today, based on the belief that they have the most upward potential for 2020. I would appreciate it if you could suggest 5 or 6 companies.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i:
May I have your opinion about the MG Outlook statement today. The EPS growth will come from share buybacks for the foreseeable future (3 years)? 5i went to half position in September 2019 in Balanced portfolio. Would you still hold MG going forward at a half position? MG has had nice dividend increases and do you anticipate this would continue?
Thank you for stellar advice. Thank you.

Q: I am a conservative, retired, dividend-income investor. I normally save up to 5% "full positions" for typical blue chip stocks, like the telecoms, pipelines, banks, etc.

I have partial positions in Leon's (2% position), Magna (2%) and Nutrien (1.5%). Would you add to any or all of these? At this stage in the market cycle, would you favour one over the rest...please rank.

Thanks...your guidance throughout 2019 was much appreciated...love the service.
Steve
