Q: What do you think of this company ? They were buying back shares aggressively but seems to have paused in this quarter. It is cheap and I saw that Guy Speir just bought 8000 shares in his aquamarine fund. Thanks !

            Q: Hi,
After reading disturbing reports about Shopify's business practices, such as not enforcing its own acceptable use policy against its merchants selling nazi-related products, and its COO's board-level involvement with a far right wing media group, do you have any suggestions for ethical growth companies in Canada or the US to replace this name in my portfolio?
Thank you. Michael

Assuming one doesn’t mind complicating their lives a little, what would be your optimal all-equity ETF portfolio for an aggressive investor ?

            Q: Hello 5i team,
I am curious about your thoughts on Premium brand holdings (PBH). I entered a position around $86 and the stock has gone down in the past 2 years from a high of $110. I was wondering if you are still confident in the company? The BE portfolio entered at ~$56.
I think this is a slow growth company organically, do you stay with a holding as long as it is well above the entry point or is there a point were you may say that a company has run out of room and is time to exit?
Thank You,
Andrew

            Q: The fixed income portion of my portfolio is fairly low. Would now be a good time switch from equities into fixed income in bonds, or has the horse left the barn? What would be, in your opinion, some suggestions for fixed income?
Much appreciated.

            Q: Aside from LLY and NVO, what other healthcare companies might enjoy success with weight loss drugs or products related to them? I’ve heard good things about ABT., AMGN, PFE, AZN, RHHBY and others in this regard, but I was wondering how you might rank them and/or others (most promising names first). I’m quite interested in Roche which has been showing strength after a long period of weakness (it’s now $35.69 as of Friday July 12).

            Q: The stocks are held in m grandson's RESP.  Please recommend any others or substitutes.  He will not need to access these funds for at least 3 years.  At what point would you consider beginning to move out of these growthier equities into less volatile of lower risk?  Do you have any recommendations for quality dividend payors that you would slowly accumulate as you reduced these equities?
Thanks very much for your advice.

            Q: ETN is a theme play that is on the move. I'm thinking of selling UNH (considered defensive) and buying ETN even though it is more cyclical in nature. Other healthcare names held are ABBV, ABT, BSX, ISRQ, LLY (starting position), and SYK. Currently, health care makes up 9.71% of the total portfolio compared to industrial at 19.12%......What do you say about this stock change? And other suggestions are most welcomed!.....Tom
