Q: hi 5i
Share price has ticked up and seems to have settled at the lower end of the auction price......As the closing date nears and auction closes how would you expect SP to respond.... in general, would a higher auction price be viewed as positive and how do you think shareholder should view the results...

I am a little surprised the shares have not continued upwards a little more positively....

Would the shares price be expected to stabilize at the auction price or just continue their previous trajectory downward after auction close...
thx

Q: I notice that both ENB and EMA have high payout ratios. ENB seems to be about 138% on Dividendhistory.org and EMA around 98%.
Is this possible? What does it say about the safety of the dividend or do utilities use a different calculation when it comes to Dividend payouts?
Thank you
Frank

Q: Hi 5i,
Without concern for diversification, if both owned but at relatively small weights, would you shift out of one to top up the other? My PF suffers from extreme weightings ranging from 20% positions to approx 1% positions. I expect I would benefit from addressing the lower end ie buy more or sell decisions.
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i,
Of the mag 7, I hold MSFT, GOOGL, and META. Please suggest the next mag 7 to hold or just add to those that I already have. This is for 7 to 10 years. My portfolio is balanced in all sectors as a blue chip, dividend, value investor with some growth. Eighty years old.
Thank you for your great service.

Q: Hi 5i
These are held primarily for dividends and (expectations of) some growth. Would you keep both for their different growth drivers and dividends or lean towards ENB being larger/safer at this time?
Thanks

Q: This weekend's Barrons magazine mentnioned Fairfax as a successful company that emulate's Berkshire's strategy and secret to success—and investor returns—combining investments and aquiring insurance businesses.
“It’s a three-engine strategy,” says TD Cowen analyst Andrew Kligerman, commenting on what Berkshire has done right. He ticks off insurance, investments, and wholly owned businesses. “You need to fire on each cylinder to make it work.”
