Q: Hello Peter and the 5I team:
I am a new member and have a question on CSV (Constellation). This is an acquisition driven company. How long can they keep churning out increasing profits?
Do you have any recommendations on REITs? You do not have a single REIT in your model portfolio. Is that by choice?

Q: For a retired person looking for a solid income stream would a laddered bond fund like CLF or CBO be a sound investment as part, say 5%, of an overall portfolio? Thanks and keep up the great work.

Q: With the March 21 budget mention of Canadian banking "bail in".http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/story/2013/04/02/f-rfa-macdonald-canada-cyprus-banks.html. It appears that if my bank gets into financial difficulty it has the right to seize my assets (cash).
The Big 5 banks also control brokerage firms in which I have all my assets (stocks, RSP, TFSA, etc). If the bank did get into difficulty would my above assets be at risk. Further to this what independent brokerages are there that would not subject me to this and also offer online trading?
Look forward to your response as this as you can appreciate is becoming a major concern for me.
Regards,
S

Q: Home Capital (HCG) took a bit of a hit last week after the Fitch rating announcement. What is your view on Home Capital now. Also, I am confused that you have Home Capital in your model portfolio, but I could not find it in your coverage universe nor could I find your research report on HCG. How do stocks get into your model portfolio?

Q: Hi, I have a question regarding investment strategy. I heard that you shouldn't invest more than 5% in any stock and I also herd that you should only hold about 5 to 7 quality stocks. That accounts for 35% or my portfolio. My question is...what do I do with the other 65% of my portfolio? Should I be investing that portion or is it better to leave it. This way I won't lose any money on this amount.
Thanks
