Q: Hello
I am going to re-balance my family portfolio (by sector/industry mix and bond / stock mix) once the Dec 2016 statements come in.
In my family we have 2 RRSPs, 2 TFSA, and 2 RESP accounts.
In the past I would add up all the portfolios together and make a pie chart in Excel to find out our bond & stock mix and our sector/industry mix.
Before I start this exercise this year I wanted to have your opinion.
How do you recommend balancing? Each account separately or other???
Should I even consider BONDS inside my kids RESP since they are just 2 and 4 years of age?
Thank you for your help.
Regards
Stephane

Q: Ryan and Peter. Best of the new year to you and the rest of the 5i team. Thanks to Ryan for his article about re-balancing portfolios. I agree that health care is the sector that provides some value. I have some exposure to Canadian health care but would like to buy some exposure to specific American health care companies. If possible, could you suggest a few companies that offer some growth in 2017 and provide a bit of a dividend? Thanks in advance for your appreciated guidance.
Q: Hi 5i team, what is growth referred to ? Does it eventually reflected in the earning and then the price ? Any correlation ?
Q: I want to use this year's TFSA contribution to make it my highest risk/reward investment. I have narrowed it down to TIO, SHOP and ITC and I would appreciate your assessment. (I am open to others if you there is something else you have in mind - sector doesn't matter).
As always, appreciate your insight.

Q: In my RRSP I petty well diversified and have all the sectors covered with 22 names. The only exception is the health care sector.What are your current favorite 2 or 3 names you think I might add this year both for income and growth? I,m 68 and won't start drawing down the RRSP until I'm required to covert to a RIF.
Q: Hello,
Looking for a suggestion on a new name to add to RDSP portfolio. Prefer individual stocks over ETFs. Currently approximately equal weight: AAPL, BNS, CXI, GUD, KXS, NFI, PBH, SHOP, SIS, TOY, and cash. Looking for a portfolio addition to invest the cash in. Time frame is: 4 year old beneficiary withdrawing at age 50+. Current names reflect risk tolerance, and plan is to diversify with names as new money is added to the account
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks
John

Q: Hi Team
I can now add another investment in my RRSP. As you earlier pointed out, I don't have any banks or energy in this account.
What is your thought of BNS (highest Yield) or RY. I already have too much TD in my SDRIF.
Can you recommend an energy stock? I have ENB in my SDRIF
Thank you for your advise.

Q: Earlier today part of your reply to a security question was: "On any account there is, at first, insurance protection through the Canadian Investor Protection Fund, up to $1 million". What is an account? At TD they breakout you account into tfsa, rrsp, us, and Canada. Are these each individual accounts? As well you can have another account number with a similar breakdown. Would that account be covered by a separate $1,000,000 insurance? Would it then be wise to open another account at another broker, if you liquid assets exceed $1,000,000. Thanks, Mark
Q: To follow up on an earlier question. If you have a large portfolio that exceeds $1 million in combined unregistered accounts and $1 million in combined registered accounts, how do you go about protecting it from insolvency of a member institution? Is it possible to do so?
