Q: Hi, what do you think of HNL at this level? Would it still be a hold as I currently own it and have enjoyed the recent run.

Q: I had an order in today for Fortis shares, but missed on my offer. I don't know whether to be happy or sad! As we now know, trading was haulted at the end of the day due to their announcement of purchasing UNS Energy of Arizona. Is 1.8B rather massive for Fortis? If the price moves downward tomorrow does one buy now, or wait until the dust settles? I was buying for the long term. I'm not too keen on purchasing companies heavily in debt. Your opinion of this deal would be very much appreciated. Many thanks, and Merry Christmas 5i staff.\
John.

Q: 5i
I thought LGT s numbers in the last quarter looked really good .
Do you see continued good growth in this company over the next few years and would now be a good time to take a half position ?
Thanks as always.

Q: Merry Christmas to one and all!

With TFSA season fast approaching, I was wondering if you had any thoughts about how to proceed with buying stocks with this in mind: being fully invested I have little free cash on hand in each of our TFSA accounts. Cash grows, albeit slowly, with left over DRIP money. So, $5500 would seem to limit us to stocks trading at, say, $55.00 per share or less. Stocks I might like to acquire (BAD, VET, BNS, etc., etc.)exceed my ability to buy in what I presume is a board lot, i.e. 100 shares. So, would you prefer buying lower-priced stocks in multiples of 100 or buying a higher-priced, but arguably "better" stock at less than 100 shares? The thesis is "Buy and hold" for distribution/dividend income which first and foremost would be "Dripped". I rarely sell unless there is compelling news that warrants a trade or re-balancing/diversification come into play.
Thanks,
Mike

Q: I have a question about Brookfield Renewable Energy LP.
I have owned BEP.UN long enough to have done fairly well with it. However, Vectorvest shows BEP.UN's earnings as fairly flat and low, give it a lower safety rating, and a '0' dividend rating.
Any thoughts as to why they are bearish and you are still bullish on the firm?
Thanks

Q: Good morning Peter and Team,

Would you be OK with selling one position of Corus (CJR.B) and replacing it with DHX Media Ltd. (DHX)? DHX appears to be much faster growing.

Q: I am looking at building a portfolio of telecommunication/media stocks for dividend income and some growth. Which one is better at this time: BCE, RCI.B, T, SJR.B, BA, MBT? How do you rank them in terms of attractiveness at this time? Or should I look at an ETF (is there one) or US stocks? Thank you.
