Q: I already have ENGH, KBL, TCN, AW.UN, CCL.B, CXI and HAC in my TFSA together with about 40% bonds. Can you suggest any of the Canadian stocks you cover which would be most suitable to add here? I guess for a TFSA capital appreciation is paramount.

Q: Greetings 5i Team:

If you had to choose one of these companies to add new money to without regard to anything but expected growth over a 3-5 year time frame which would you choose and if you could please provide a brief rationale?

Thank you

Q: Hello 5i. I really enjoy reading the questions on a daily basis and consider your replies VALUABLE information. So much so I recently renewed my membership.
I have held RDM corp for the past 3 years and it has been a steady, low volatility stock. After todays buyout news, I am considering selling and putting the cash into another company in the same space. Do you think TNC is a good replacement? It seems expensive compared to RC.
Thank you.

Q: 3 months ago I purchased full positions in engh, kbl, gil and sj as value plays looking for growth. My thought is to give the companies 2 years to get back on track. Do you still consider these good companies and do you think they will become good stocks within my 2 years time frame? Thank you

Q: I have ACQ with a big loss and am thinking that I should sell and buy either KBL or NWC (keeping in the consumer space). Thinking 2 yrs out, would this be a good idea? If yes, would there be a better replacement than KBL or NWC

Q: Hello - I'd really like to take a position in K-Bro, but I have questions:

1) K-Bro appears to be expensive. If I'm getting correct information, the TTM P/E ratio is about 26. Is that correct? Would you not agree that this is expensive? I really don't see this as a growth stock to justify such a high multiple.

2) What is a reasonable P/E multiple range for a company like this?

3) Going forward do you see decent dividend growth?

Thanks for you valuable service.
