Q: Hi, I am wondering if there is any information on TFSA $ amounts being held by

Canadians across the country? What is the average value of a TFSA across the country?

How many have achieved balances of excess 100k 200k 500k or 1 million?

What percentage do these large accounts represent for TFSA holders as a whole (Example 5% have achieved this level of balance)?

I tried finding this info on my own and did not find much that I would consider reliable. Please take as many question credits as you see fit. Thank you for the great service.

Q: Hello 5i,
I am considering purchasing BEP:US to meet my P.A. targets for both Sector (Utilities) and Geography (U.S. & International).
In researching BEP, all I could find was one pie chart that indicated its geographical footprint as being 50% U.S., 35% Canada, and 15% Brazil.
While this will work for me, my question is "how accurate is that as a geographical breakdown?" It seems to be all I could find.
Can you offer any other suggestions for Utilities with a greater U.S./International bent? U.S.-denominated is preferred - as is a comparable dividend...
Many thanks for any insights you may have.
Cheers,
Mike

Q: SIS is down 6% after an earnings report that appears to be their best ever. Plus the following forward looking comments from Bourassa ..... " Our goal for the end of 2025 to reach approximately $1 billion of revenue and 20% adjusted EBITDA are well within our sight. " ...... Could 5i comment on the quarter and conference call with your analysis ? And possibly some insight into the stock reaction ? With optimistic forward looking statements I normally don't expect the stock price to go down ..... Thanks Garth ......

Q: I currently have HCAL in a growth orientated TFSA and I don't think this is a good fit.
Currently, I hold Goog, SHOP, LMN & CLS. Do have a few ideas for a stock that could replace the HCAL ETF?
