Q: Hi 5i,
I found the "Five from 5i" extremely interesting today but in reading about Blockchain I couldn't help but think immediately about DH and what impact such a technology and process might have on them. From your far more informed perspective, would you see DH as an adopter and still be able to survive or would Blockchain provide serious competition. I couldn't quite glean from the article to what extent the concept is, or would be, proprietary. That would make a significant difference for companies such as DH, I assume, should Blockchain gain traction and become an industry standard. Any thoughts or insights would be appreciated. And, yes, I hold DH - currently about 0.25% underweight my target.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Hi - I would like to top up my Gold/Silver Assets in my portfolio. I have a 10-12yr time horizon. - I own about 2% gold and silver bullion (in my safety deposit box) and would like to buy about $15k of precious Metals stocks but want them to be dividend producing stocks. - Can you give me a few of your favorite Precious Metals Stocks (or ETF's) that have a (relatively secure) dividend. I would like to buy about $5k of 3 different names if possible - also what do you think of Mandalay Resources (MND). - thanks again for this very valuable service!

Q: I currently owe NYX (NYX Gaming Group) at 3.3% weight and would like to add another technology stock. From your model portfolio would SYZ,DSG or ESL be preferred? I do like the dividend of SYZ but since NYX is considered high risk I would preferred the 2nd technology stock to be stock that I can hold for the long term and is low risk. I don't intend to keep NYX for a long term.
Thanks

Q: Hi Folks

Could you comment on the recent earnings report as well as the recent share appreciation. The price seemed to be topping in February when they announced strong results from partially held Vital Trust. That seemed to provide the impetus for another up leg. I have a nice profit and I am wondering whether it is time to sell and switch to another REIT. Thanks

Q: Feel free to disregard is this question is outside the scope of what 5i offers.

My question surrounds investing in real estate. Many investors have heard that even if we buy into the stock market at its peak and there is a crash, we will still be up in the long term. Does the same apply to real estate? That is, should an investor attempt to time the real estate market? We live in Alberta and not sure when the best time it is to upgrade our home. I'm also curious if real estate should be viewed as a portion of one's portfolio.

Thanks!
