Q: Please comment on Enbridge's recent asset sale. I am thinking about adding them to my portfolio and think that this can be a strong outperformer once the market starts to have a little more buy-in again. I am looking at both ENB and CGX and want to add one for a combination of both growth and income. I just feel both have been beaten down so much and are presenting great value right now. Would you prefer one of the other? Or do you think they are going to be in the dog house for a while longer? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5I research.
What do you think of the new BMO Global Comm. Index ETF, COMM? All I can find is its MER aroung 0.35 and it includes Apple, Netflix, Facebook, Google, Disney and Time Warner, but no Amazon. It opened at $20 and went to 20.42. This is just what I have been looking for to put into my RIF for a long time. Should I go ahead and buy a 3% position or should I wait? If so for how long?
I appreciate your thoughts on this or if you have other suggestions.

Q: Our son is 14 and his RESP is about $80K. It owns Amazon, Facebook, Nvidia, Alphabet (equally) and Knight (24%), reflecting his lifestyle and my faith in GUD. Can you temporarily overlook weighting, etc. and suggest one more US stock with some potential torque for a 5 year hold? Risk is not a factor. If this account craters, he will still get any education he aspires to before he heads out on his own...
Thank you.

Q: I am retired and have held MRT.UN in a RIF for a number of years, but it has dropped 20% in value in that time and although I appreciate the 7%+ yield, it is just languishing there with what seems very little prospect of growth. It does seem to have stopped dropping in value though.

On the other hand, DIR.UN has been on a bit of a tear in the last 3 months and also offers a high dividend. I am considering switching to DIR.UN, but wonder if this rally is played out and if it's likely to maintain its value or slump under profit taking. I'm a bit wary of switching from a loss position in one stock to buying high and losing more on the next one.

Do you have any thoughts on making this switch?

Q: I have been a member long enough to recognize that "ok" is a downgrade from "fine" when you comment on stocks.
That is what has transpired between Aprill 11 and 25 in responses regarding Micron.
Would you recommend Micron for a 4-5 year hold with the hope that it is closer to the two separate $100 targets rather than the recent $35 target due to pricing concerns.
Thank you.
