Q: Any comments on today's results? Pre-market bid/ask is ~0.5% above last night's closing, so I would take that to mean they beat. Since this was never a 'bond proxy,' do you think it recovers some of its lost ground, or has money simply rotated out of this, and its momentum is therefore done?
Thanks for all your insights.

Q: Hello:
I have been thinking of adding some ATD.B to my portfolio but have noticed the stock has been down slightly since the Trump win. Is this a bit of nervousness because of
ATD.B holdings in the U.S.?. Is the market wary of Trumps approach to anything not
American. I noticed Trans Alta Renewables & Alqonguin have reacted in a similar manner.
Thanks: Jerry

Q: Hi. My questions are:
1) If there is only one stock you can own, which one would you pick.

2) Between ATD.B and PBH, which stock do you think has the most potential in the long run?

Thanks

Q: Hi, Parkland Fuel stock continues to get pounded every day since its recent earnings release, losing over 10% of its value. It was mentioned as a baby Alimentation Couche Tard. Today, ATD.b stock price also showed considerable weakness. I have just started to wonder if there is a rotation out of these consumer names which have done well in past. And, if so, do you see this trend persisting, since money seems to be moving into banks, industrials and energy/material stocks. I have a small position in ATD.b but just doubled my PKI holding to overweight and feel a little concerned. Thanks for your valued advice.

Q: As a newer subscriber to 5i, i am interested in purchasing your BE portfolio. The above names have had huge run ups and I don't know how to approach them. Which ones are buyable at these levels?
Of the ones you deem buyable, can you comment, for each, as to whether a half position or full position should be taken.
And can you rank these in terms in terms of your preferences at current levels?

Thank you for your excellent service, as always.

Q: Hello Peter,
Given the issues with some world banks, I have decided to hold off buying XLF. Do you think i am overly concerned here? Second, Sienna Senior Living is either stable or goes down a bit where as Chartwell continues to grind a bit higher. Any idea? Lastly, ATD.B has pulled back a bit. Do you see this as a good opportunity? Alternatively, i was simply thinking of increasing my weights on Savaria Corp given the results and forward guidance and Knight Therapeutics as it seems like it is becoming a health care fund with great management. Please advise fo your thoughts. Thanks again.

Q: Recently I've sold some non performing stocks as well as stocks that were a very small portion of my portfolio in an effort to concentrate my portfolio on some higher quality, better performing stocks and I've come up with these 6. Wondering if you could rank these based on risk from less risky to most risky. I'm fairly conservative, tend to hold good quality companies for long periods (5-10 years) and I don't like a lot of volatility - I'd rather get a 5% return and sleep at night than a 10% return and stress about it.

Q: I have a question about ATD.B.Was it the increase in debt from the acquisition from Imperial Oil that caused the drop in share price today or profit taking or something I'm unaware of? By the way my portfolio is up more than 52% so far this year, in no small measure, because of your sage advice.Thanks, as always.

Q: I am wondering which two from the list above I should add. I am a long term investor who typically buys and holds for 5-10 years or longer (basically until the fundamentals change). I am 40 years old with a 70/30 stocks/bonds split and I hold emerging markets etc. in the recommended amounts. I am just looking to add two high quality names for the long term here to add to my existing equity portion. Thanks.

Q: Hi team, given today's news on Alimenation Couche Tard and price jump, is it still a buy for long term growth, or would PBH or DOL be good alternatives
Thanks. Sam
