Investment Q&A

Q: This question concerns a well diversified Canadian portfolio (~30 holdings), focused slightly toward growth.

Looking to add to positions in ATZ, DOO, BN, BAM, GSY, KXS, TRI, PBH and T as well as initiate a partial position in WELL, all for long term holds (5+ years).

Would you rate any of these as a wait-and-see rather than a buy today? Please rate (1-10) in terms of your conviction to buy today, along with suggested target buy range [great, okay].

Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i Team,
I have a small position of Emera cumulative redeemable preferred shares class E that trading at about 18.25$/share as per this morning. They had 4.5% per annum dividend payment so they have a 6.1% yield at current price.

I would like suggestions to diversify that part of my portfolio. (It's not a big weight in my portfolio but I would like some diversifcations options... Options could be other companies preferred, bonds, bonds ETF etc. since they are basically having similar behaviors in the current yield environment.

Thank you, Michel C

Q: Hi all at 5i!!
My son has a pension fund from his company administrated by Manulife .consisting of 20%NEI Jantzi Soc Index ( Canadian large cap) 20%BMO CDN Small-cap, 20% MMF Us dividend income fund, 20% ML FC Us Equity, and 20 % ML Mawer International Equity. Does this combo seem Reasonable or any red flags here. This is for long term growth and the choices were limited. I value your thoughts.
Cheers,

Q: Can you comment on what is going on here, and whether my shares in this company are worth holding through this turbulence. Thanks

Q: Probably in your queue, but BNS another stinker quarter. But now 5% down, so at this point just hold, or move onto TD?

Q: I know this company is fairly new, however what are your thoughts on their royalty business model for this space and on the management team? Would you hold shares?

Thanks

Q: I have been sorting my portfolio now I have transitioned from an advisor managed portfolio to one I manage myself. This stock is less than 1% of my portfolio. I bought it, sold not long into the pandemic and purchased some last year. The decision I have is do I add to this near these levels or drop it and focus on growing a position in another industrial stock in the portfolio (CN (thinking of switching to CP), CJT, EFN, WTE, WSP, XYL). For me geographic diversity is currently 90/10 Canadian in this sector.

Q: In my RIF, the SLF position is now 5.5%. I have a very small starter position (< 1%) in BRK-NE. Thinking of reducing SLF by 1.5% and putting it into BRK . I realize there will be an overall reduction in dividend from the reduced SLF position but am anticipating growth in BRK will more than offset this issue . Any concerns on such a move ?

Q: Everyone, what has you gleaned from the quarterly report so far this year. Clayton

Q: Hi Guys,

I'm looking for a good royalty/streaming company, in the natural resources space, that is paying a solid dividend. Who would you recommend

Q: I originally purchased this stock reluctantly on the advice of my (then) advisor. I've never been a fan, as they seem to bounce from one crisis to another and have been stuck in a trading range until the recent hiring of Mr. Doyle; the trading range so far appears just slightly higher. There seems to be lot of investment advisor/analyst support at odds with my view. I am rethinking this position in my portfolio now I've no advisor, and am trying to decide if this one is worth keeping in my Consumer Cyclical group (currently underrepresented overall). I am interested in growth with this stock more than the dividend. Would appreciate your thoughts as it resides in your Income Portfolio. If not QSR then what is a plan B in this sector? Thanks very much.

Q: Bill Wignall is out as the CEO at Sangoma, was this a suprise, or was it a planned transition? Could this mean the company is being sold?

Thanks

Q: Peter; I’m up nicely on MDA and getting nervous over the way this “ market” oscillates- every inflation number either scares it or helps it. Is it worth holding or take the money and run? Thanks.

Q: How would you view this company with their recent listing on NYSE and then buying Ranger? Will this be another WCP like scene...initial skepticism and then increased performance?
