Consider sending this to Rino given the parallels with Northern Telecom.

Q: Hi 5i,
In an answer to Cliff asking for replacements for recently sold PLI, you suggested GUD and SIS. Does this imply that SIS should be in Healthcare? I have it listed as Industrials. If so that changes my question as I was wanting a replacement for PLi and CRX. I only want a weighting of 5% but already own SIS and GUD. Thanks for the continually excellent services offered. US would be OK.

Q: Hi Peter,

I am 43 years old and my portfolio closely tracks your balanced portfolio. I also have exposure to the us and international stock market. I am at a point that I have enough contribution and exposure to the stock market and I do not plan to contribute more. I also have real estate exposure by owning my own home in Toronto. Now, I am looking for new investment vehicles to invest my disposable income. I have 10 year time horizon. Any general suggestion? I am willing to consider alternative ideas ( e.g. willing to buy a property in the US). Thanks for the great service.

Q: I have zero exposure to utilities at the present time. I believe that you advocate having exposure to all sectors of the market because you never can know for certain what the market will do. While most people expect interest rates to rise and utilities to under perform, the same could have been said in 2013. Which is your favourite utility and which utility offers the best dividend growth to potentially offset future interest rate increases. I am looking for low volatility, good dividend yield and good dividend growth.

Thank you,
Jason

Q: Hello 5I,

This is a follow-up to questions asked about Extendicare Inc that were asked in June. At the time you commented that it was fine for higher risk income. Has your view changed any with the release of 2nd Qtr earnings? CIBC points out that "EXE trades at a discount to its peers on every metric" .The company has identified $465M of development/redevelopment initiatives that it is planning to undertake. CIBC feels that EXE can accomplish this with internal resources.

Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Bob Ahearn
