Q: I have been using 2.6% as the TSX dividend yield for 2017. Accurate? I read 2.8% somewhere recently. Thanks for your help in clarifying. As always this simple metric is surprisingly hard to find.
Thanks!

Q: Am I wrong in thinking that CPG could do quite nicely in a high $50 oil environment. Just their high volume of 170000 bpd would lend itself to the bottom line and lift the stock. They are also light oil and producing in both the Us and Canada.
Thank you gord

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
My wife and I each hold both BCE and T in our RRSP/RRIF accounts. We are overweight Telecom, and trying to reduce the number of holdings. I note that T has beaten BCE for the one and two year periods, but BCE has beaten T for the three and five year periods. We would consider one of these stocks as a "hold forever". Also, not that it's pertinent, but we're BCE clients for our landline, internet, TV, and cellphone.
Given that 5i has dropped T from the model portfolio, if we were to keep only one of these two, which should we keep?
Thanks, and Happy New Year to all at 5i and our fellow subscribers.

Q: Happy and prosperous New Year 5i team,
I am just considering adding to my tfsa. I bought a chunk of Toy when it fell and thus have a bit of a profit already. And I was thinking of adding to it in 2018. But, I noticed that you added Dol to your buys this year and I have learned to pay close attention when you make a move. So, the question is, given that I am already well diversified, should I add to Toy or is there something about Dol which you have an extra strongfeeling about, since you added it to your portfolio?
thanks

Q: I'm worried that there will be a severe market crash in 2018, and therefore I think I should hold a high proportion of cash (35%, perhaps as much as 50%) in my investments. Do you agree that this is a reasonable thing to worry about in today's environment? Can you recommend a good, safe place to keep lots of cash, where it will earn at least a little something?
