Q: Hello 5i,
As always I appreciate your very valuable advice!!
Earlier in Nov. you commented on the demise of Sears and the impact on other mattress retailers. In the comment you indicated that the mattress market in general is shrinking. If this is true should I be concerned about holding Sleep Country for the longer term?
Thank you
Dave

Q: Can you provide some colour on this Blue Ribbon Income Fund RBN.UN? It doesn't seem to be well known, but pays a very healthy dividend. How can they pay such a high dividend? Are they returning capital at the same time?
Thanks.

Q: What is your opinion on Arista Networks for a 3-5 year hold? Does the insider selling concern you? I understand you can't time the market but should one wait for a pullback or just buy into assuming it's a decent stock? Thanks!

Q: I have a position in ENB at $48. If you were selling a covered call on this security, what strike price and expiry date would you select?. The goal would be not to have the position called away. The pending clarification relative to future dividend increase rates is one element that needs to be considered.
Thanks!

Q: After your recent comment on CJT, I started to check out this company. The story sounds really good - near monopoly in overnight air shipping boosted by increased trend in online shopping - though as you say the stock is expensive. But I note that there has been massive insider selling over the past year. Is this just a routine part of share compensation or is this a red flag ?

Q: Hi. Can I have your opinion on Instructure (NYSE: INST), a US educational software company? I could not find any question on that company in the database. It provides cloud-based Learning Management Software (LMS) to institutions to administer and deliver online courses, track learning outcomes, teacher-student interactions, etc. They also a product targeted to corporations for training employees and developing skills. The stock seems to be performing very well. It is on my watch list and I am intrigued by it because I am a big user of LMS at my University. Thank you.

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
I have a bit of cash in an account that very closely tracks the "Balanced Equity Portfolio". My weightings in GUD and CLS are a bit light now due to their share's pulling back. Both stocks look cheap to me and tax loss selling season is likely helping to suppress them. I would appreciate your opinion of adding to these two names. Thank you for your sage advice. DL
