Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hello 5i,

We currently have 1% positions in AXON, CROX, LNTH, TGLS, and INMD. All are up 5%-60% currently. We are considering adding 1% positions in WIRE, BOOT, AMCR & 2% in IJH.
We are in the 63-65 age range and do not required the funds for 5-10 years. Do you have any concerns or comments on this strategy?
Thank you for your help.

Q: After many years of holding a full position in Laurentian Bank, I am just now breaking even if I sell at the current price. But with BNS and TD not interested in acquiring LB and the other major banks tied up in their own acquisitions, who does that leave as a potential buyer? Is it too risky to hold onto my shares lest the price plummets if there is no sale?

Q: Hello,

As a whole, I own too many positions and am looking to concentrate my portfolio. I own positions in both TFII and CJT that are in the same industrial transportation sector. I have a larger position in TFII, which has done well while my smaller position in CJT has slumped.

If you had to sell one of these, which would you choose? Or are they different enough to keep both? What do you think of CJT, down about 30% in the past year?

Thanks,

Q: I am interested in companies that might benefit from an Amtrak vacation boom.
I am open to any and all ideas.
And do you think this is a reasonable investment theory.

Q: Hi,

I've sold my house and moved overseas; I will return in about 3-4 years and may need to buy a new home at that time.

I have about $700K I'd like to invest while I'm overseas.

Can you suggest some dividend stocks to hold while I'm overseas, that I'd be able to liquidate to sell to buy a new home when I return in 3-4 years?

Thanks,
Robert

Q: These positions are getting large in my portfolio (7% or a little higher). I don't mind letting runners run, but do you see any that you would recommend trimming because of insecurity regarding the future of the position? Thanks!

Q: Both Aritzia and Canada Goose have seen a drop in their share prices recently. I am interested in investing in one of them for the long term. Which one do you think has a better growth potential and why?
