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: Good Morning,

I would like to add a couple of mid cap growth names to my portfolio for a 2 - 3 year hold. Without regard to sector how would you rank ECN, HWD, MX, CJT, DIV and ZCL? Any commentary is most welcome.

Thanks as always,

Dennis

Q: I would like to add to one or two of the above stocks with my gains from Shopify. In a well diversified portfolio I am looking for dividend income with some growth. I hold all of the above just slightly less than a 2% allocation in the portfolio.

Many thanks for your continued support, education, advice and suggestions. I have done well under 5i direction since 2013. Thank you.

Q: Hello Peter & co, I am going to start a half position in TWO out of Savaria, ZCL and Premium Brands Hldgs. This will be for long-term positions in a TFSA. Based on current info and prices, please advise which two you would favour. Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i,

I noticed that both ZCL (3.68%) and SIS (2.56%) have decent sized dividends for relatively growth oriented companies. Assuming I have flexibility amongst my registered and non-registered accounts would you recommend these two stocks being in my non-registered account to benefit from the dividend tax credit or in my registered accounts given the higher growth rates of these companies?

Thanks as always,

Jon

Q: I sold out of a position and have some cash to work with. I have narrowed it down to three stocks and I'm struggling to pick which one is better at this time. Which of the above would you pick as the long term holding that you feel would have the best return if bought today? Disregard sector allocation. Thanks

Q: Hello Peter, I have cash in my TFSA to invest. In addition to a diversified RRSP, my TFSA already has significant holdings in Google, Winpak, ZWB and the Agellan REIT (which have all done very well over the past few years).
Can you please suggest three 'growthier' ideas for new additions to the TFSA. I can accept a fair degree of risk, but not really interested in "long shots". (My gambling instinct was wrung out of me after my foray into Guestlogix - just a bad memory at this point). Thank you!

Q: I have some cash to deploy and I want to add to some small or half positions in the following 10 companies: MG, NFI, SIS, MX, SJ, PBH, ZCL, WSP, BCE, ENB. I would like to buy into some of these stocks today and some later, to spread the risk of the market's ups and downs. Which of these would you suggest I buy today, and which should can I hold off on? I am otherwise well diversified, so that is not an issue for how this cash is used.
Please deduct as many credits as you like. Thanks for the great service.
