Q: I hold the balanced portfolio complete and have 20% of my total portfolio in the u.s. i like cgnx and evi but am looking at possibly some canadian stocks that would mirror these two or be part of the solutions. Could you please give me your thoughts on this matter and your recommendation of some stocks that would fit the bill.

Q: I must be naive.I thought conference calls would be a grilling of the ceo. I have been reading the transcripts and they are usually love ins with analysts asking softball questions. Nothing has changed. I presume at the end of call the analyst hangs a strong buy on the stock and the other side of the bank calls the ceo preparing the placement to sell more shares. I think this would good info for followers of 5i since every other question on Bnn
Market call asks what the analysts rate the stock which drives me crazy.


Could you email the list of great canadian ceos I missed it?

Q: My emerging markets exposure is currently 100% weighted in India via Farifax India HLDGS. I am looking at adding either Russia (RSX) or South Africa (FAH-U) to the mix. Which country do you feel has the better growth potential or is there a third country you prefer at this time? Is this targeted country focus better than an emerging markets ETF like ZEM?
Your thoughts and feedback is greatly appreciated and I understand this is outside of your coverage universe

Q: 10,000 Americans a day will reach the age of 65 and this will continue for the next 19 years. That's 3,500,000 a year times 19 years. More walkers, hips, knees, wheelchairs, nursing homes, retirement homes, pain pills, drugs. More of what Savaria ( SIS ) produces. Great for Savaria !

What other Canadian & U.S. Companies will benefit from this great explosion of aging of America . Is Canada in a similar situation. Baby Boombers, Bob

Q: You were not enthused with this issue when it did an IPO on November 1,2016. Have you changed you view? If not what would you recommend as a good place to park cash.
The cash balance usually $100K would fluctuate; but would never go to Zero.

Thanks Team
