Q: Hi 5i,
Please rank the safety of current dividend payments over the next 3 years for the companies listed below. Assign a 10 for absolutely no chance of a reduction and a 1 for almost certain a reduction will happen in the next 3 years. Although I do not want to influence you on the rankings, I would give the Royal Bank a 10 as an example.

AP.un
ALA
BCE
BIP.un
BPY.un

Please deduct as many credits as you see fit.

Thanks
John

Q: Hi!
Stocks have increased a lot recently and most of the above are well off their lows with stocks like BEP and BIP almost reaching their high of the year. Would you feel comfortable entering new money into the above names for income/growth or wait for a pullback? I know timing the market is next to impossible but do you see this rising market as sustainable and if one waits will the opportunity to enter still at reasonable prices be missed? Also, what are your thoughts on RDVY. It was not listed as a choice on the drop down list.
Thank you!

Q: Back in May I asked a question about DXCM. It was in the low $400's then and it has since fallen to the low $300's. Do you know the reason for the decline and what do you think of it now? How "expensive" is it now/would you buy? (I never ended up getting any and am thinking of stepping in now)

Q: Hello -
My goal is 10% precious metals weighting in my portfolio. I am currently 2% GDXJ and 6% CEF. If I want bullion to be 8%, is it necessary to split that up between CEF and PHYS? Or can the remaining 2% be put into the existing CEF?

Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you give me an update on the fundamentals of Medgold including available cash and insider ownership. Could you also provide any info you can find on average daily volume - there seems to have been a spike in volume recently but I really don't have any reliable data to indicate whether this is truly a substantial increase or not. Given the price I realize this company is pretty close to being in the 'buy a lottery ticket' category but it did have some success a couple of years ago.
Thanks.
Rob
