Q: Good morning, Peter. Just renewed for 2 years at advantageous price. Wish all decisions were this easy. Power Fin has finally reached positive traction for me after several years under water receiving dividends only. Given your liking for SLF, would you swap PWF for that, stay as is or move proceeds to a bank or telecom? Portfolio is reasonably well-balanced.
Thank you and kind regards,
Geoff

Q: Peter,

First, I like the video!

I am hoping you a can address the role that analysts play in the movement of stock prices. On the one hand, I understand and accept that they can have a vested interest in a stock and therefore their predictions as to stock price and the interest they may show in a stock can be biased.

However, when it comes to projecting sales and earnings, their comments seem to be given a lot of weight, as in the company missed on this or that or the company exceeded expectations and the stock price almost always acts accordingly. If they have a vested interest as noted above, wouldn't they tend to underestimate these things so the stock will look good? they seem to be wrong most of the time anyway.

In a nutshell, then, why believe analysts on the one hand but not on the other hand?


Thanks,

Paul F.

Q: My wife and I are retirees and like many of us had most of our RRSP/RRIF in mutual funds. In the past year have moved more into the market and particularly since joining 5i have most of of the stocks in your model portfolio. I believe we should better balance our portfolio by reducing holdings in these funds as combined they total about 30% of it.
Funds are 30k each in C.I.Harbour, PHN Div. fund, 20K in Scotia BNS 313. We do now hold a position in ETF's: XIU, XRE,CDZ, and for U.S. VFV. Am thinking of trading some of the funds to items we are missing in the model such as STN, MG, KBL, We also have Rogers, and TD so have not replaced with BNS or Telus as yet.
Looking obviously for security with some growth and feel more U.S. items should be included but would prefer to buy on TSX rather than U.S. exchanges. Any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance and if there is some sort of award available for honest, impartial, financial advice, 5i should win it hands down. If so where do we all vote???
I expect this to be my only question for the year and will not tie you up with frequent ones.
