Do you think this is a good mix of stocks for a RESP? Is there anything you would change? Should I swap one of the tech names (SHOP or KXS) for PHO? Thank you.

Q: Hello Peter and team,
I was thinking about buying the following 5 REITS. Collectively they would make up 5% of my portfolio (1% each) and the focus would be on income. I chose them to be a mix of Can, US and Intl exposure, and to have higher yields, and less exposure to commercial.
Please note I have a 2% position in NWH.UN but count that as part of my healthcare portion of my portfolio.
AAR.UN
WIR.UN
RUF.UN
NVU.UN
DRG.UN
Thank you for your excellent service!

I keep hearing that US Banks will do great in 2018 and am switching from ZWH to ZUB in my RIF where I have a 8.4% weighting. Is this a good strategy or do you have other ideas and why?

Q: I have cash in my TFSA that I would like to use for a new half-position in a growth micro-small cap stock. I already own GSY and PHO in that category. Could you recommend 1 or 2 stocks that would be a buy at the moment?
Q: I saw Ryan's pick of Descartes on BNN and wonder if you can comment on what catalysts you see for this to go a leg up? My admittedly basic technical analysis doesn't suggest any upward movement so I assume this is underpriced based on fundamentals. My question then is when do you expect it to move and what factors will cause the stock to move upwards?
Q: Hi 5i,
I have the following in my Can. cash acct. would you suggest any to be moved to my TFSA in kind, for tax reasons? Would be $5500 for 2018 contribution. All have done well in growth and I look forward for them to continue.
Thansk kindly,
PS

Q: Constellation Brands released their 3rd quarter results today and stock dropped about 3%, as company moderated its full year expectations to the lower end of forecast. Overall profit was higher, though. What do you think of the results and the company for a small investment, as a part of sector allocation ( and US Equity exposure) for long term ? I have been thinking about it for a while, but never got an opportunity. Thanks
Q: Happy New Year 5i Team.
We have been considering TMX Group (X-T) to add to our holdings for some time.
We are long term hold and income investors.
In a recent answer to a question (December 11, 2017) regarding TMX you replied…
“..The main concern would be the lack of new listings, but listing are somewhat cyclical.”
David Baskin, regarding TMX mentioned on BNN (January 4, 2018) … “Business is going well on all fronts, and the TSX was #1 in international listings last year.”
Do the recent ‘newly’ listed cannabis companies on the TSX improve your opinion of the ‘lack of new listings’ ?
Perhaps I am misinterpreting something here, if so I do apologize.
Do you happen to have any new outlook for TMX for 2018?
Thank You
Dennis

Q: Happy new years to you guys at 5iresearch!!! I hold positions in all of these and they have been dogs for about a year now.
