Q: Hi !

I refer to your monthly section of "best stocks ideas"

What are we to read in your selections: best value presently, ? best long term value ? best buying opportunity now ? best undervalued stocks ? best growing potential short term ? best long term growth ? best total income ?

It would be most helpful to know exactly what you mean by your best stock ideas.

Gratefully,

Q: Thinking of starting a position in P&C insurers. Would DFY be a good choice for growth? How has DFY performed since demutualization? Intact is certainly growing great but is it expensive? I already own MFC & SLF would adding a P&C be too concentrated?
Thanks

Q: TSU is at a 52-week low. Is this a:

(A) Excellent buying opportunity;
(B) Modest buying opportunity;
(C) meh

I have no insurance position currently. I am familiar that 5i prefers Sun Life vs. Manulife. Where would TSU plug into the equation for an investor with a growth-oriented portfolio and with a long runway ahead?

Thanks,
Ian.
