Q: Hi, I can't decide which financial stock to choose for a half position in my portfolio . For financials I already own full positions of BNS, SLF . (And HR.UN for real estate if you think that is relevant)

Which would you choose and why? Thank you

Q: hello 5i:
I've just sold BPF.UN and wish to replace it with a good, reliable income stock with at least a bit of growth potential. Would Crius (KWH.UN) be a logical name? Any other suggestions?
thanks
Paul

Q: Can you rank the stocks best to worst in your opinion. These are the stock s that are in my Financial Services Sector. Would you add, swap or remove any of them? My portfolio holdings/thoughts are very similar to your BE Portfolio. I was thinking to remove RY. Thank you and great job.

I own the following stocks:
BNS, CCL.B, CNR, CGX, CSU, KXS, GUD, MG, MX, NFI, PPL, PBH, SIS, TOY, SJ, T, WSP, ZCL, VET, BCE, ENGH, TD.

Thanks for all of your great advice over the years. cheers

Q: I would like to add a few small cap "seed" positions that have the potential of growing a at a rate of 25% plus per year, i.e. essentially a triple+ in 5 yr. I already own PHO and ITC and am interested in GSY, PEO, BUS and PTE. Could you rank these equities (staring from highest growth rate) and include any other small cap candidates that I have not considered that fit the criteria.
And thanks for all the savvy advice provide by your service. James.

Q: With goeasy's large drop today, assuming it's due to a sideswipe of the HCG debacle, is this a time to add to GSY. I know you like this company's growth prospects and have recommended it recently, but my concern is if there is a strong possibility that government may take a closer look at the 'alternative' financial practices given HCG's meltdown. Thanks for your take on this evolving situation!

Q: I have half positions in CCL.B, ZCL, GSY,ECI and PHO; full positions in SIS,KXS,SHOP,PBH and GUD. Growth from 'good' companies is my only consideration and I have a 10 year timeline. These companies are part of the growth portion of a balanced portfolio.
Please provide guidance on the following 2 questions:
Could you rank my half position companies with growth potential as the sole criterion.
Is it reasonable to increase one's stake beyond a full position in any company that has excellent future prospects? If yes, please rank my full position companies based on growth potential.
Thanks for your excellent service, as always!
