Q: I am looking at adding to ATD.B. LTD seems to have come down nicely over the past year and the number of shares outstanding seems fairly stable. I am wondering about growth. Morningstar shows $1.89 for 2016 up 8 cents from 2015. What kind of growth does your analysis show? As an NR stock do you have plans to do a report at sometime or is $26b market cap too large?
Many thanks
Mike

Q: I am looking for a few income picks to add to my portfolio. However I am concerned about the eventual hike in interest rates and a certain amount of capital flight from income stocks that would ensue. Would you agree that financials generally and insurance companies in particular would do well in a rising rate environment? Any more specific thoughts are appreciated. Thanks again for your great service.

Q: Hi Team,

I understand that this is a little bit outside the focus of 5i, but I was wondering if you guys had any thoughts on TOUR after the investments made on Friday by large firms like Sequoia and Temasek. Could this be China's version of PCLN?

Thanks,

Q: Hi 5i,

Just following up on my question about hedge funds and hedge fund ETFs.

I have found a list of some hedge fund ETFs that have over $100M US in assets and >25K average daily trading volume (for liquidity reasons) and was wondering if any of them would be an acceptable alternative to directly investing in an actual hedge fund. Any thoughts you have would be appreciated, recognizing this is a bit off the main track of your advice.

Here they are:

QAI - IQ Hedge Multi-Strategy Tracker ETF
WDTI - Managed Futures Strategy Fund
RLY - SPDR Multi-Asset Real Return ETF
ALFA - AlphaClone Alternative Alpha ETF
MNA - IQ Merger Arbitrage ETF

Thank you very much.

Michael

Q: Hi 5i
Thx for your help and bang for my buck. There is no comparison to other investment advice I have encountered. My question is with regards to an investment site called american bulls ( japanese candlesticks ).They also have a Canadian version. It works well for trading stocks especially commodity stocks such as SGY and FM and TCK.B to name a few. I am mostly buy and hold but have traded in a TFSA and I find the signals to be fairly accurate especially when things happen quickly as in the oil and material sectors.

Q: Good morning 5I team,
Since REITs are included in the Financial Sector, I'm guessing there is no reason to have to hold any, as long as I have a good sector percentage. Is that correct? It seems that many people hold them primarily for income. Since I have about 8 years to retirement, and a decent pension at that time, I tend to focus on growth.
Thanks for everything!
