Q: I’m struggling to decide which 3 of these holdings have the greatest potential if the only criteria was growth in a TFSA for a 5 year + hold.
I would appreciate any thoughts on which 3 you might keep and why (or which 3 you might divest and why).

Q: some time ago I asked a second question about Canadian companies that pay dividends in USD(eg bar its etc). my broker Scotia McLeod will only credit these dividends in CAD. despite the fact that I asked them to hold relevant companies in the USD side of my cash account. my second question was does 5i or any of its members have the name of a broker that will deposit the dividends always in USD. thanks for your help Richard

Q: Hi,
Can you offer any thoughts on how you value a convertible debenture, in particular as it approaches maturity? I am concerned in particular with the EFR debenture and am wondering if this would be a good time to sell, as I am back to even on the cost and have picked up some interest payments along the way. The underlying stock does not help ally my concerns. GSY's debenture seems more worthy of holding on, however it has touched on 143.00 this week and brings up the question of exiting while ahead, as opposed to holding on to see if it can continue higher. Any thoughts you can offer on this situation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for all your hard work and helpful insight.

Q: Hello 5I.

I have held this stock for the past year. With the latest earnings I am just slightly up. On Friday the stock was continuing its run up to 21.10. And then The news came out that the US did not agree to repealing all tariffs with China. With that the stock reversed and finished down for the day. My question is, is this Company’s prospects highly correlated to the trade dispute between China and the US?

Q: I read the most recent press release from DIRRT Environmental on their 3rd quarter release. The CEO Kevin O'Meara made some pretty pointed comments about the company's failure to execute. I have never heard a CEO publically give such a frank and honest assessment of the company's missteps. Is Mr O'Meara a one off or is his rant a normal response from an unhappy CEO
