Q: Hi Peter and team
1. Can you see the new US Prst energy policies impacting ENB share price favourably?
2. Also, NIO dropped over 7% last Friday -- I assume this is normal volatility for NIO. What would you see as the key strengths and weaknesses of NIO going forward?
Thank you

Q: What is your opinion on the bid by Couche-Tard to take over Carrefour? Did management not do their "due diligence" as they seem to have been very surprised - that their was push back by the French government on the grounds of "food security".
Is the governments excuse a reasonable one or was it just to keep a major head office in country?
In the past Couche-Tard usually did very good job of looking for potential problems before attempting a takeover - usually only walking away because of a higher bid they were not willing to beat.

Q: Hi 5i,

Please kindly comments the above stocks (FTS, SU, ENB, KEY) in oil related sector, I am thinking to invest for 1-2 years, kindly to rank the risk and potential in coming future. Should I keep all of them or may suggest to take off one? Perhaps I should consider FTS more on utility rather than oil related? Thanks for your advise.

Q: Hello 5i
I have a 5 year GSC ladder in my TFSA with $10,000 dollars a year. Each year I get about $1000 to $1300 inerest and turn over the principle. In my TFSA I also have the growth stocks of Lightspeed and Leon's which make up 6% of my equity. The rest, as a value investor primarily are mostly dividend paying blue chip in a well diversified, balanced portfolio 60% equities 40% cash and bond ETF's. I am 73 with good pension.
My question is: Should |I keep the GSC ladder which is a warm, fuzzy security blanket or by stuff like SHOP and NVIDIA or other suggested growth stock?

Q: Hi 5i
Bitcoin is a real head scratcher for me. I can't see why anyone would use it as a form of payment considering stories like "that pizza purchase years ago is the equivalent of millions in todays value" or "I have a couple of password tries left before my disk is encrypted and my millions are lost forever" ... so there's goes the asset / store of value argument. Maybe I'm getting old but I just don't get it (having said that I bought a small amount of ether and ripple as a learning exercise a few years back and still hold it ).
In any case, the real question is with more etfs/companies piling into bitcoin related investment, if it were to grow to such an extent as to be bubble territory and subsequently experience a severe pop, would it have any side effects on the rest of the market or specific sectors of the market do you think? i.e. would it ever be anything to be concerned about ?
Thanks
Mike

Q: Wondering if 5i has any thoughts on this company. I noticed they signed a joint development agreement recently with "an industry leader" but I can't find any news on which chip maker. I'm assuming if this gives one chip maker an edge, others will have to sign on as well?
