Q: Hi team, I am looking at telcos. I currently hold Rogers and was thinking of switching out to Telus or BCE. I am curious for your input on the metrics. On Globe Investor, Rogers metrics are less favourable than both Telus and BCE on Forward PE, Price to Book and Debt to Equity. On top of that BCE and Telus have a higher dividend yield and a better 5 year record of raising the dividend. All that being said, RCI has performed well lately, what am I missing? Why would the market pay up for RCI, why would one buy Rogers instead of BCE or Telus? rob

Q: I just sold a US stock from my TFSA and I want to redeploy the US cash in either US or Cdn funds. I'm thinking Amaya or Concordia in US dollar's. I have a half position in AYA in Cdn funds in my RRSP, I'm underweight health care and I'm looking for long term growth. Thoughts on these 2 options or would you have a 3rd option that you like better. I'm diversified and won't need access to cash for 20+ yrs

Q: I notice that there have been a few small brokerage outfits closing up this year, Octagon being the most recent. Edgecrest Capital packed it in in September. Some of these smaller outfits had positions in micocaps. I know Edgecrest had a large position in Questor. Can some of the sell-off of micro-caps like questor be attributed to the liquidation that inevitably ocurs when people move accounts?

Q: Hello 5i, I don't currently have any exposure to the lumber sector. I'm thinking of adding CFX, ADN or WEF. They all seem to be moving again. I do like dividends but don't need them for income at this time. Do you have a favorite in this sector.
Thanks again

Q: Hello 5I Team! Here goes with my first question to you.

At first glance it appears PLI released positive news today, so would you please give us your take on their news and outlook. Given that the stock is down nearly 10% today, is this a good entry point to acquire more shares?

Currently, what is the 5I intermediate and long term view for PLI?

Thank you.

Q: Hello - Would I be correct in saying that the price for Fortis is presently cheap? When I look back over a 5 year period the P/E ratio appears to be at its lowest level right now. Would you agree?

I have no data that goes back further than that so I don't know what the average P/E would be over a longer time frame.
