Q: Hello 5i,

Trumponomics is laying waste to "green" energy. Can you list 5 stocks in Canada and 5 stocks in the USA that would be most affected? Is it worth hanging onto a small position of BEPC after the news? We have a small loss at this time.

Thank you
D&J

Q: What percentage of a portfilio would you allocate to renewable enegy. I have organized possible holdings into 3 groupings: A. asset allocators, like BEP-un, CWEN; B. technology enhancers, like ARRY, SHLS, RUN, C. Electric utility deliverers: AES, FTS. I would ssk that you recommend a your preferred namres for each grouping. My questions are: 1. Is this a useful way to organize and, if so, what percentage would you allocate to each grouping? 2. Could you rank the stocks in each grouping for safety and growth with suggested [ballpark] entry buy prices? Thanks

Q: I read an article last night talking about if you had purchased AAPL stock on it's IPO 42 years ago at 22$ and invested 10G at that time and held until now the value not including the small div they pay would be roughly 14Million$ after all the splits your share count went from 400+ to over 100,000+ shares.. I know it is a tough call and this is more of a fun exercise but could you name a few companys/stocks that one day may return something like this over 30-40 year time block Canadian or USA..

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,

In a non-registered U.S. dollar account I am looking for an ESG stock (no oil/gas, defence, tobacco, etc.) that has a yield between 4% to 6%. It should be a relatively stable company with some growth potential. It will be less than 1% of an overall balanced portfolio. I have come up with the following possibilities:
ABBV - +/-4.4% yield but patent for Humira coming off in 2023
MPW - +/- 5.4% yield healthcare reit (which seems stable)
WPC - +/- 5.4% yield reit (less stable than healthcare reit?)
CWEN - +/-4.4% yield green energy (not sure if it should be class A or C shares)
I would like your thoughts/opinion on these please for a long-term "little worry" 3 to 5 year hold.
And please, please please if you have other suggestions I would love to hear those!!

Thanks for your wonderful service.
