Q: I will be coming into some cash around the middle of next summer and will be re-orienting my portfolio towards income. I want to have 4%+ overall yield. To that end I am looking for a bunch of higher income stocks so I can hold on to my low or no yield, growth stocks. Specifically I am looking at stocks that have over 6% yield and whether you think a full or partial position makes the most sense for each. Please deduct as many credits as you see fit. Thank-you.

Q: Hi there, I'm thinking about reducing my position in WIR (taking profits) and entering MRT. Can you tell me why the steady decline in MRT sp since 2015 and do you see a reversal any time soon or any other catalyst on the horizon?
Or would I be better off sticking with WIR, or perhaps you have a better suggestion.
Many thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team,
I am looking at gradually building up positions in the above stocks over the next year as part of a diversified small cap growth portfolio.

Could you please comment on them and their growth prospects? If their is an economic downturn how does their survivability look? Are their any red flags that I'm missing?
In what order would you start buying them given today's price?
Thank you for the great service!

Q: Gud has now 51% and yet BIO trades at $10.15 BRL, about 16% below the offer price.
What do you read into this. Is there an opportunity here ? Can I buy BIO, should I ?
Will GUD offer less than they offered the private previous owners ? When will GUD start reporting earnings from this acquisition ? Do they need all the shares to do so ?
Finally do you see more analysts stepping in now with this new acquisition, maybe one or two will make it their top pick in 2020 ? Thoughts?Thanks

Q: I own a small position in PRO REIT PRV.UN. It has performed well and would like to add more units to my position. What is your opinion on this Reit and its ability to continue to grow and pay its distributions? Do you consider it risky and if so do you have other REIT's that you would recommend in this space?
Thanks - John C.

Q: I sold WCP for the tax loss with the intention of buying it back after 30 days. Now that the 30 days has passed, I am questioning if I should repurchase it or if I would be better off with something else. It was my only energy sector holding and I am looking to fill the void with a new full position. What would be your best choice(s) for immediate purchase with the following criteria:
-Canadian energy sector
-Pays a dividend (can be small or large)
-Relatively strong balance sheet
-Will be able to weather $50 /barrel oil indefinitely but should nonetheless see some big gains when/if the Canadian sector turns around
