Q: Over the past 2 years I have slowly adjusted my portfolio to be more growth (overall return) focused as opposed to heavily dividend focused. I am considering selling EIF and purchasing WSP. WSP is a larger company with a higher valuation which I'd be okay with as long as I'm paying for a better company with higher growth prospects. Your thoughts, please.

Q: I received a notice of the certification and settlement of the Concordia class action.
They have $5,294.365.61 less legal fees. They state: "Qualified shares disposed of on or before the 10th trading day after the public correction (Aug. 25, 2016)". I myself along with a lot of 5i people (who sold on or about that date) sold my shares on August 18 (settlement date). The rules of this are very convoluted. It doesn't look like I qualify. If I did, I would have to send the information to you to have it interpreted. Hope you can shed some light on this. Thanks Dennis

Q: I currently have zero exposure to the Communications sector. Do you recommend having at least one company from this sector in one's portfolio, even it it already has other dividend-paying companies (BEP.un, SLF, CSH.un, etc)? What is your favourite Canadian company in this sector, and why? Do you suggest staying with a Canadian company to address this sector in one's portfolio, or would a US Communications company be a better option? Thanks in advance.

Q: This momentum ETF, with a 5-star ranking (Morningstar), seems to provide a good selection of US stocks, with an excellent rate of return. Would you agree?
Is there a similar ETF structure for the Cdn market?
Thank you, Team!

Q: Hi, is the distributions received from these stocks classified as dividend or R.O.C. ? What is your thoughts or can you suggest some good stocks that payout roc as I have a high income from dividends. I understand that roc lowers book value and in turn can increase capital gain. Thx Jack.
