Q: Good Evening,
I am currently light on financials. I have a 2.8% position in SLF, 3.4% position in BNS and a 2.6% position in GSY. Would you recommend adding to these, or starting a position in ECN or something else. I am a long term investor who doesn't mind some risk.
Thanks,
Janet

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and 5i staff,
For my son's 2018 TFSA contribution, please rank these stocks and one ETF in order of preference: GSY, AVO, TOY, SIS, MX, XEU. He already holds SIS (up 216%), TOY (up 50%), and MX (up 34%). He holds no European stocks and very little outside of Canada, so I think that XEU could achieve some extra diversification, with a further advantage that it's a "commission-free" ETF with Scotia iTrade. Any other suggestions would be most welcome.
His other holdings include BCE, BEP.UN, BNS, CAR.UN, ENGH, GUD, KXS, NFI, PBH, and TRP.
Thanks for such great advice! There's no way we could replicate such results without 5i at our side.

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Further to my question you just answered on my grandaughter's RESP, I'm thinking of selling GSY (its up nicely) and buying a bank stock like BNS. I am concerned as there are are no large caps in the portfolio. What are your thoughts on this? Thank you.

Q: thanks for your great advice throughout the year. Like to make some purchases over the next while. Looking for growth and some stability over 5-7 years. What is your picks avo or pho, gsy or ecn, toy or nfi. Is now a good time to purchase these stocks.
Q: I am looking for low priced high growth Canadian companies that I want to buy in TFSA in the new year. Volatility, risk factors are NOT relevant. For about 11k. (5500x2) I bought PHO and BBI after reading your responses to some of the subscribers in the Q&A section. Any other names that you would suggest? ( Being seniors our core holdings are in the ETFs in different sectors and safe stocks like XIC, VDY, VIG,MGV,XEG,GLD,XGD etc., ). So, this 11k can be allocated to risky micro or ultra micro caps and I am ok with some losses if I can score a few three or 4 bangers!

Q: Hi 5i team,
I’m thinking of adding ECN to my portfolio. However, I already owned GSY and FSZ. Do you see any overlapping? Which two out of these three names will likely have the best growth in the next few years? Which two out of these three have the better balance sheets? Thanks and all the best for the new year.

Q: What would be your top candidates to be taken out for a significant premium in 2018??
Q: I recall in an answer it best to hold Magna outside of a TFSA because of the consumer cyclical nature of the business. Do I have this right?!
While I think of goeasy as financial, it is classified as consumer cyclical. Should this be held in a trading account rather than a TFSA?

Q: I am starting a Growth Portfolio with $100,000 to be phased in over three years. I purchased DOL and SHOP with each 5% weighting, or $5000 each. What weightings should I consider for each of ECN, GSY, OTEX, PHO? (These positions will be in my TFSA and held for the long-term, more than 5 years.) Are there any other positions that I should consider at this time and if so, what weighting?
.PS...I currently hold KXS and GUD in my balanced portfolio.

Q: Can you recommend 5 stocks which have high growth potential, but currently undervalued or not over-valued for 3 - 5 years hold ? These stocks can be in any sector and can be Canadian or US .

Q: Gentlemen, any concerns over GSY's negative cash flow? Profits are growing nicely, but much of the gains rest in receivables.
Q: I Would like to do some rebalancing. If you were to pick a stock in the financial sector for 4% of your total portfolio which stock would it be.? Also staying in the financial sector but looking for your suggestion for a stock with a bit more risk/reward. Looking for maybe a 20%+ growth target and this stock would be in TFSA and be 2% or less of total holdings. Not looking for ETFs at this time
Thank-you. Terry

Q: Two questions: I’ve recently intiated a half position in GSY and hold full positions in TD and BNS. I’m wondering what your take is on the implications for these companies as the new rules for mortgages takes effect Jan 1. Would it be prudent to scale back my bank holdings somewhat and increase my position in alternative lenders? Would you recommend a full position in GSY at this point as some borrowers may have to make a move away from the big banks? I accept GSY is riskier and the government could impact the alternative lending space with regulations.
A second related question, Cannacord is forcasting an 8% decline in mortgage lending for 2018. Your take on the impact for TD and BNS please.

Q: Hello Peter
As a recent new member, I am both impressed and a little overwhelmed with all the information. I started making a lists of potential companies to invest with, but decided to cut to the chase and just ask you....I am looking for your recommendation for both income and growth companies.... perhaps 4 or 5 of each. I am fully invested in TD, which has done well for me this last year, as well as a couple energy stocks.... Spartan and Ring. I am retired but have a steady income flow with pensions and dividends from an ongoing business. Thank you for offering such a great service and look forward to a bright and lucrative future. Brian

Q: My portfolio is light in the financial sector (CXI) and and I was thinking of adding GS at about half position (25K) to my RRSP and/or cash account for at least a 5 year hold, likely much longer. Although the yield is very attractive, I would prefer more growth. I am about 5 years from retirement and will be fully funded from other sources. I have slightly above moderate risk tolerance. Please suggest 2-3 stocks from each Canada and US, and if possible provide a rating. Thanks.
