Q: Hi,

I need to raise some cash.

What would be your order to sell of the stocks listed, for a long-term, somewhat growth oriented investor.

Thank you,
CG

Q: Hi,

Sorry my last question meant to ask about individual stock compounders, not ETF's. Can you list 5 Cdn and US names that you would DCA into over time? For example, I'm assuming BN would be on that list. What other names? Looking for names that can CAGR +10-20% over time. Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i,

We have listed a few Ugly Ducklings of the year below. Please rank the following stocks for purchase today with a longer-term view on growth.

CRM, MRVL, TRI, CSU, LMN, CROX, UNH, HD, GSY, FOUR, AVAV

Thank you for your sage advice.

Q: With the recent drops in stock mkt. Could u suggest 5 undervalue Cdn. dividend & growth stocks, as well as 5 under value US dividend & growth stocks. Take as many credits as u see fit

Q: For more defensive US stocks (I.e. non tech) how would you rank the long term performance of the following CL, Cost, HD, MCD, SYK and URI. I have all of these, but I am not happy with the performance of CL nor MCD and I am thinking of selling them and upping my positions in the others. I am not worried about being concentrated in too few stocks, as I have the opposite problem.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: Hi! Would you buy HD and SYK today? What do you think their growth prospects are over the next 5 years? Thanks so much.

Q: Sell or not, and proxy for sales in your opinion.
AC, TECK.B, CS, SES, STLA, ARE, CVE.
XBI-N, HD-N, NIKE-N,

Q: In the context of Return on Equity (ROE), what is the ideal ROE? I am asking because, when we examine company profiles, we can see significant differences in companies’ ROE. For example, here are the figures for: RY-CA 14%, DOL-CA 104%, and HD-US 405%. Why is there such a disparity? Thank you

Q: Hi - I'm trying to get a sense as to how much these companies have the trade/tariff war issues priced in. I know it's a short term question here, but would you wait to buy these great companies given the economic uncertainty? My sense is purely anecdotal, but my gut tells me that people are pulling back on extra spending....so while COST and WMT benefit from people looking for low prices, they may also avoid the spending on extras. Thoughts? In other words, would you expect negative earnings revisions over next few months on these companies? Even if trade war averted (unlikely), they still may miss this quarter as people are already tightening their belts.

Q: Hi Folks,
I currently hold HD in my non-registered account. I am thinking of switching to DOL for a little/lot more growth - they seem to be going in opposite direction. May I have your opinion?
Thanks

Q: Please rank these stock for risk relative to the US Tariffs from High to Low....thanks....Tom

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I'm curious about your thoughts on sentiment turning against US equities in the coming months. I'm already exhausted seeing all the foolish tweets and news clips coming out of the Trump administration and I have to believe many others are too. Trump 2.0 seems much worse than 1.0! Also, I've been hearing that European markets are already outpacing the US market so far this year and I'm wondering if the US market deserves its current valuation given the increased volatility and increased risks?

I own many US stocks (e.g., 5 of the Mag 7, COST, ISGR, HD, TT, SYK, RS, ZS, HON, V) and I'm thinking for the first time of selling/trimming some of these. I would look to increase my dividend-paying Canadian stocks to generate more income. I'm also thinking about European dividend payers?

I'd appreciate your general views along with any comments you might have related to selling/trimming some of the stocks I've mentioned above. I'd look to sell into the end of this month and buy favourite TSX dividend payers (e.g., ENB, SLF, CNQ, BEP.UN, BIP.UN, T) or others you might suggest after the next tariff decision in early March.

Like many members, I have to thank you again for the wonderful service you provide. Your Q&A section and market reviews are fabulous, especially during difficult times! I also realize this is a long question and the answers are worth more than one credit.

P.s. I had registered to attend this week's webinar which may have answered some of my questions. Unfortunately, something came up over lunch and I missed the webinar. Please let me know if there's a chance of catching a replay.

Q: Please provide a suggestion for an US ETF that invests in basket of US dividend paying stocks such as PM, BAC, HD, MCD, BLK. Thank you

Q: Hi 5i,

What would be your reasonably valued top 5 US stocks today with a balance of growth and income in mind (with a focus on dividend growth), regardless of sector. Thanks.

Q: With the repatative hurricanes in USA and the flooding and devastation occuring, there will have to be a large rebuilding of homes and businesses, Which Sectors will benefit from this? Which Canadian and US companies will benefit? Does the lumber duties have an effect on the Canadian lumber industries response?

Q: Is the negative book value a concern for the company. I see some online people claiming the stock is undervalued, however, how can that be if it has a negative book value. Is the dividend safe?

Q: Morning 5i team,
Thanks for all your great advice to help grow our portfolios.
I own some URI and looks like it’s stalled and looking to sell that and buy one of the following, COST, TT, WMT, CAT or HD.
What are your thoughts on that move or would you put it somewhere else?

Q: Many Consumer brands are under pressure but will turn around at some point soon. Any guess as to how far out? What to watch for? Could you rank and add thoughts behind your best overall pick to accumulate... Is there another company you would also consider at this time?

thx, M
