Q: Hello 5i,
can you suggest any Canadian publicly traded stocks that are involved with offering "In-Home" Health care. I believe "EXE-T" offers this as part of one of their services. How much does this contribute to "EXE-T" overall business? Please deduct as many credits as necessary. Thanks!

Q: I am trying to break my need to hold on to my losers. I have held KPT for 4 years with nothing to show other than the dividend. I like the dividends but I don't have need of them at this time and I want something with some growth too. Should I give it up? If so any suggestions for a replacement?

Thank you

Q: I would like to add to my industrials and can't decide between these two companies. I know you like both. Is there anything that suggests one over the other? I am wondering if given I have enough healthcare already, is that enough to influence me to go with NFI as it is the "purer" industrial play?

Appreciate your insight (and really looking forward to the new website!)

Q: Hi I am looking to do some tax loss selling. DGC DOWN 25%, GUD DOWN 13%, RNW DOWN 5%, ENB down 5% and SIS down 4%.
Could you give me some options to repurchase for each company if I decide to sell any or all of the above?

Q: Greetings 5i team:

Can you please suggest 3 stocks on a valuation basis that still have a good balance sheet that you consider have the best potential over the long term. If you can draw them from the mid-cap or larger dividend paying universe so much the better, irrespective of sector. Finally, if you could highlight what you see as the biggest risk for each?

Thank-you,

Q: Hi,
I have a fairly balanced long term outlook portfolio. Many of the stocks are safe(r) growth stocks with all drips being used. I am looking to deploy a few thousand $$ for a cheaper, riskier, high growth stock. What would your few (3-5) favorites be for this? Please rank them in order of preference and likely potential growth.

Thanks

Q: Hi. I have a overweight position in BCE which I have a 3% profit plus dividends over the last year. I'm looking to sell half the position to try to get a bit more growth in the next year, while still maintaining a good dividend. Can you suggest a couple names in a sector with a bit more momentum. I already have a lot of financials. Was thinking Chartwell?
