Q: Hi team
I am in a bit of a quandary, I bought ala a while ago, before they cut the dividend, my average cost is about $ 29, I know the old saying it doesn't matter what you paid for it, its the present that counts, I have it in a tax free account. I am thinking about selling some of it and buying vet, higher yield, but Lord knows that it could be cut at any time regardless of the management says they wont. I also feel that it has a better chance of capital gains in the future. How do you feel about this plan
Thanks

Q: hello 5i:
the railroads are beginning to look a little more interesting to me. While I still think we need at least another 5% taken from the price to become very interested, I wish to know which you'd pick today, knowing you go back and forth on them (you last chose CN in mid-August), and WHY you'd choose the one you do.
thanks

Q: I have been holding this corporation for a few years. Although, it has performed to my satisfaction in the past, the current performance is quite mediocre, in fact, shares declined during 2019 (hardly covering management fees etc!) Is it time to sell?
What alternatives would you recommend.
Thank you, Team!

Q: Hello to all!!

There was a question asked about peleton. In your reply you said you prefer using zwift. Having said, wouldn't it be fun if 5i created a group ride every now and then.
Just a thought! Depending if there would be interest with other members.

Thanks
