Q: Piggybacking off this question from Domenic on March 09:
Q: I am interested in establishing a 2% position in the Consumer Defensive space, and I am debating between Loblaws and Premium Brands. This position is meant to be held for an extended time period of several years. Which company would be better positioned to provide me a substantial return, and if asked to choose, towards which one might you lean? If there is another opportunity in this space that you feel would better fit the aims I have described, I would be happy to read your thoughts. Thanks so much, and I look forward to reading your feedback.

Wondering what your answer would be if MRU was thrown in the mix.

Q: This question concerns a well diversified Canadian portfolio (~30 holdings), focused slightly toward growth.

Looking to add to positions in ATZ, DOO, BN, BAM, GSY, KXS, TRI, PBH and T as well as initiate a partial position in WELL, all for long term holds (5+ years).

Would you rate any of these as a wait-and-see rather than a buy today? Please rate (1-10) in terms of your conviction to buy today, along with suggested target buy range [great, okay].

Thank you.

Q: I need to free up some cash in an un-registered account for a large purchase. Which of the above holdings have the worst outlook. So I guess rank in order you would sell them. I will likely need to sell 2 of them. I don't hate any of them but something needs to go to free up the cash.

Q: I have 1% positions of Premium Brands Holdings and Boyd in a TFSA. Considering consolidating into one or starting a new 2% position in something with better growth prospects. Do you have three prospects to consider that would be better than PBH and BYD?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and 5i team,
It’s that time of year to contribute to our grandson’s RESP (age 9). After rebalancing and adding new money we can add two stocks to the portfolio. To broaden the sectors , we are looking at utilities, healthcare, and real estate. Could you please suggest a name in each sector .
Thank you for your opinion.

Q: I’ve held PBH through thick and thin for over 5 years waiting for the “growth” to materialize and yet after this time I’m down nearly 20%. How long do you give a company to perform before moving on? Even if I was just breaking even I’d have some more patience with this but the opportunity cost of 5 lost years and a 20% loss is telling me it’s time to find something else. Your perspective would be appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hello, I am underweight Consumer Defensives, currently having only a small position in Costco.

Could you rank your favourite ideas in this sector with growth potential and current valuation as important criteria?

Thank you, Doris

Q: Hello 5i team,
I was thinking of selling the rest of my NTR (a bit of CAE) shares to start a position in PBH. This is more to have a non-cyclical position since I currently have none.

In your last report on PBH you state that their dept is Medium/High. How well are they servicing their dept (paying it down or adding to it)?

PBH has also been growing their dividend over the past 5 years, what is the payout ratio for it's dividend? Has the payout ratio increased over the years?

Thank You,
Andrew
