Q: I had not previously followed TELUS because I already had BCE and AT&T. I recently threw in the towel on Vodaphone, although since then VOD is getting positive comments in some investing letters. I have however been intrigued by TELUS after I noticed its presence at clinics and hospitals . Telus invested in health-oriented companies and am further impressed by its recent acquisitioni of the Canadian part of ADT.
Would the strategies being followed by TELUS encourage you to start a position in TELUS? Is T.ca now morphing into a growth company too? Does it have the cash flow and earnings to continue aggressive growth strategies ?

Q: Hello 5I Team
Newmont Corporation is a US domiciled company and trades primarily on the US market (NEM:US) and it also trades on the Canadian Market (NGT:CA).
I am assuming the Canadian listing is a result of the Goldcorp acquisition in 2019.
1 - Which is the better market (Canada or US) to purchase Newmont on?
2 - Assuming the dividends from Newmont are not eligible for the dividend tax credit, would it be better to buy the Canadian domiciled companies (ABX, AEM, FNV, KL etc.) and receive eligible dividends? The yield on all the major gold miners is approximately 1 %, so I understand yield is not the primary reason for holding gold stocks.
Thanks

Q: I have noticed more of ROP’s applications in use by in the medical world. It continues to remains on RBC’s top global ideas for 2020. Is it over-valued right now? Does it have the balance sheet and cash flow from existing operations to continue its acquisition strategy?

The share price worries me. Should it? Or does ROP deserve its rich price due to its growth potential? If you would buy, what would be reasonable entry price (or would you be patient and wait for the next market dip?)

Q: You had a comment on this company a while ago. What is your opinion today in light of the possible use of hydrogen as a fuel for future large truck applications. Would they be a major player to supply equipment to produce as well as distribute the hydrogen gas.
Thanks

Q: Greetings 5i,

I have no luck sometimes having stepped into BTO last week with a 1% position ... What are your thoughts NOW? What would you replace it with? Most larger Metals companies have run a bit and it feels like I'm chasing. Would you consider ABX or look to a Jr?

Cheers!

Q: I am considering purchasing either Home Depot or Sherwin Williams. Do you consider these stocks a buy at this time and if so which one would you recommend or is there another security in this industry that you prefer. Thank You.
