Q: Hi Peter and Team:
so far our RSP accounts have equity only (as per our model portfolio). We do not have any fix income such as bonds.

if we want to have 10% fix income, what's your recommendation to start with? So far we prefer to buy corp bonds. I am 50 now and may want to retire at 60.

Thank you
Adriana

Q: Hello: My TFSA value is $64,274. This includes $5,638 in cash that I need to invest. My objective is growth. My holdings:

AYA $9,370 (14.6% of TFSA)

XTC $7,424 (11.5%)

DHX.B $9,530 (14.8%)

CSU $32,312 (50%)

Thanks to 5i these stocks have done very well. The TFSA is about 8% of my total investment portfolio. Can you comment on the health of this mix? What stock(s) do you recommend I add with the cash?

Q: Hello 5i Team,
Fairfax has launched a fund for India. Is it too early for you to venture an opinion if this would be a good long-term investment. For the record I am retired and is it something I should avoid?

Thanks....

Q: 5i
I have a half position in GC but just cannot decide on whether to ad to this one or start buying into aya . Aya has been doing much better while GC has lost some ground .
Also I'm thinking of getting back into acq since it has had much better momentum of late and forward earnings look quite solid plus it's well down still from its high .
I would greatly appreciate your advice on these stocks .
Thanks

Q: In their Fiscal 2014 report, the management "expected meaningful growth in fiscal 2015" and held cash per share $1.65. Given the large portion of business that comes from Western Canada what would you expect in terms of growth for 2015? Also in your October report you noted insider selling. Does this selling affect your otherwise positive opinion of management? Has that selling subsided? Would you be comfortable buying a small position here?
Sorry for the multiple questions.
Many thanks
Mike

Q: Hello great team. Amaya is in a strong bullish trend in all time frames according to BMO. I am holding 6.9% within my Portfolios along with most of your other PF choices (both PFs). My question is; should I ride this a bit longer? AYA was a bit stuck for a while but is rising nicely again as I am sure you know. Any news? Thank you for all you do. I am doing well with your Q and A's and best of all "makin moola"!

Q: Hi Guys, Is there a trading tool you know of where I can back-test a trading hypothesis to see it's success? For example, what I would test today is to examine the trade (long) success of buying equity in a company where the current share price trades at a discount to a bought deal financing such as the one announced today (@22.25). With many many thanks again
