Q: Hello 5i,

I'm considering PLS for my TFSA as I have no materials exposure. Currently holding Boyd, Enghouse, Spin Master, Premium Brands. I know this is speculative, but in light of potential infrastructure spend in the U.S., possible lower CAD and a stock that seems oversold, in your opinion is it worth the investment or would you have a better recommendation.

Thanks

Q: Each year I have maximized my TFSA contribution and have a total value of $80,000 consisting mainly of small cap stocks such as BYD.UN, PPY, CRH, HNL, and tend to rotate stocks periodically. With my advancing age I have toyed with the idea of simplifying the management of my TFSA by holding a single ETF, that being ZDY. Your insight would be appreciated.

Q: Peter and team

I am looking to add some growth potential (along with acknowledged risk) to an otherwise fairly balanced portfolio.
Sector allocation aside, could you please comment on CRH, ITC, and PHO with regard to current valuation, potential growth, risk, and order of preference in the current market.

Thank you for a great service.

Phil

Q: Hi 5i team:
from CNQ I received some shares of PSK. I noticed that analysts have it as a "hold" mostly, what is your opinion should I keep them ?, I am underinvested in energy, so a would not mind to keep them, but if risk is high I would prefer to sell them and buy something more predictable. Thanks !!!

Q: According to my record keeping over the past year, these stocks were spoken of favorable by you in the Q & A section of your site:

COR, JPM, SIMO, SBUX, QCOM, NDAQ, EBIX, AMZN, ITRI, IWO, PI, NVDA, ARLZ (NASDAQ, NYSE)

Looking out to 2017 do you still feel favorably about these stocks?

If not which ones you cull?

Also, are there any US stocks you would add to this list, whose growth prospects you really like over the next year or two?

Thanks in advance.

Q: No question today. Just wanted to thank Peter, Ryan and the entire 5i staff the best of the season and all the best for 2017. The support you have given to me this past year has been invaluable, and I assure you, much appreciated! As a retired teacher, I think all public school students should be exposed to your service before they graduate from high school. Not sure how this could be achieved, just know it has huge potential to improve their lives. Just a thought.
