Q: Hello 5I,
I am down 40% on multiple US Marijuana stocks. The ones that are taxable accounts I am considering selling and buying other stocks with potential to triple or more over the next 5 years plus. What would be your highest conviction picks to be able to accomplish these returns in US and Canada? Maybe 5 options for each? Thanks

Q: Please recommend, especially during this uncertain economic times, two to three Consumer Staple stocks to hold, again for longer than 5 years. My aim is 5 % yield but I do understand that yields for good quality companies are usually low. I would be happy to invest in those with really strong growth down the road. This is what I have compiled with: NWC, PBH, ATD, EMP.a, L, MRU. By all means, please include ones that you feel would serve this purpose.
Thank you again for your insight. Roger

Q: Can I get your take on Olympia’s latest quarter. I’ve been slowly increasing my position size here as this company seams to benefit materially from raising rates and doesn’t have the same flattening yield curve stigma that banks contend with (or recently increased tax rate). What do you think of this arguement. I realize this is a small cap so it’s not for everyone and my relative position size is small (especially compared to the banks which I own a lot more of haha)

Q: I almost missed the notice that the Directors of DM had purchased almost 2.5 million shares of the company last month which I see as positive but I also noticed when reading the FSZ information circular that 3 of the 4 Directors I was asked for vote for did not own a single share of FSZ. Needless to say they did not get my vote and I will now look to sell my FSZ in the near future. If the Directors aren't willing to own shares in their company then neither will I.

I am looking for your recommendations on good dividend paying stocks. Stocks which have come under pressure due to market conditions. Stocks that are low risk and do not have high debt. I am mostly interest in income stocks but would also like a stock that would give me some capital gains. I have listed these and would appreciate rating these. Please also provide me with any other tickers you feel would fit my needs here which I may not have thought about.

Thank you.

Donna
