Q: I am considering adding Valener Energy to my portfolio. However I note that the dividend is rather high and am wondering about the stability of this company and its ability to continue to pay its dividend.

Q: Hello 5i Peter and Team, I need to diversify, I have not rebalanced in years!
I currently own AD, BMO, DH, IPL, MCD, WCP. What stocks would you recommend to add to this list for more diversity over the next 6 months. I like dividend payers but do not need income yet. I am comfortable with a certain amount of risk.

Q: I mistakenly stumbled on Gartner in the U.S. when looking up the chart for Intertain since they have the same ticker symbol. I was amazed to see Gartner has a sharp straight up chart since 2009 that always bounces off the 200 day moving average, which is where it's currently at. I've never seen Gartner mentioned here or on Stockchase. It's a technology research company that touches every industry and operates in 85 countries. Sounds like my kinda stock. Any comment? Thank you.
Q: Peter and Team:
It will be 3 years until the kids start needing funds from their RRSP, and I am slowly selling individual stocks and moving to etfs to spread risk and reduce volatility.
They have good exposure to US Market ETFs, but all Canadian Exposure is through individual equities. Is now a good time to purchase ZCN (or suggested equivalent)?. Also how do you fell about low volatility ETF's i.e. ZLB vs. broader market equivalents.
Thanks for the great service and deduct 2 if you see fit!

Q: Hi Peter and Team!! In a nutshell, could you explain to me how income trusts work. How are they taxed? Would now be a good time to buy some, and if so, which would you recommend? Thank you for your tremendous service!!! Cheers, Tamara
Q: STN is a company highly rated by 5i. What do you make of its recent acquisitions? The company's SP has been dormant for sometime and there is no sign of life in sight. I like to take a position but is concerned that it may be dead money for quite awhile yet.

Q: Can you comment on the fact that BNN Market Call takes place during the trading day and not all of us can be watching while we are at work. I have frequently come home to see their picks and I an interested in a stock, but find it has traded up 10% or more just after the pick is announced on the television. This seems unfair for those who cannot watch. Do you have any pull with the BNN producers. Maybe we can get them to air it at 1:00 after the market has closed. Do you have any advice for other than to wait to see if the stock trades down to a reasonable level before buying?

Q: Do you feel Easyhome's recent stock decline is market specific or company specific? Do you think it is a decent investment at these price levels?
Q: HR.UN is the only REIT stock that I owned. It make up 2.25% of my portfolio. I am under water by 12%. Would you recommend this stock as buy and increase my holding or add another REIT? If I should add another REIT what would you recommend.
Thanks

Q: Are you a fan of the frequently expressed strategy of having your per cent of fixed income match your age? I suspect this is a personal decision based on one's risk tolerance, but as a general rule does it make sense? For myself, 50+ in fixed income seems like a lot.
Q: Greetings! Today, this stock declined by 23.08%, closing at $2.70 USD. I don't see any news. Do know of any reason for the decline? What is your opinion about this company as a growth stock? Thank you.
Q: I bought PHM in April at $1.60. It has since plummeted to $ .60. I understand that averaging down is frequently like catching "falling knife" but with PHM now having recovered to $.80 I am considering "averaging down" and buying another 1000 shares. What is your opinion. Thanks
Q: Hi 5i team,
I know you recommend keeping sector allocations during all ups and downs and my energy is just 2.8%, PEY at 1.3% and WCP at 1.5%. I am considering adding SGY (or something else)at 2.2% now to top up to 5%. Any comments are welcome.
Thank you for your unending expertise.

Q: Hello 5i,
I am presently underweight the tech sector. Assuming I own equal weights AVO,DSG,GIB.A CSU and MDA which one should I add to today? Or bring a new company into the portfolio?
Many thanks, Doug

Q: Peter et al.
Any thoughts on this one. It is the rebranded Bioniche. They recently got an FDA notification that their bladder cancer drug (Urocidin) will get FDA fast-track review. They seem well cashed up, but do have a lot of shares outstanding (280 million). Thanks.
