Q: Greetings!
I am looking to add some solid industrials weighting to my TFSA. 5 yr plus time frame. Can you offer your top 5 stocks , and top 5 Canadian focused ETFs please with rationale? Also, interested in any Canadian based ETFs that focus on US industrials. I could use some additional US focus, so how would your top picks in each ETF category compare with each other in terms of geographic region?

Q: I have neither Telaria or Rubicon Proj. but I would like to start a position. With the merger between them how would you play this? Buy both before the merger or buy one and why. What happens after the merger? Do you think the merger makes good sense ?
Thanks, Peter

Q: I have noticed lately that some of your answers have an addendum that people associated with 5i may have financial interest in companies mentioned. Does this represent a shift of philosophy away from unbiased answers?

Q: I own Boardwalk and Interrent REITs. I have nice gains in both. Boardwalk finally seems to have some momentum behind it after languishing for a few years. With a solid quarterly release in the next couple of weeks, do you think it can continue to move higher and get back to the $60's. They keep saying they are trying to diversify the portfolio, but no major moves yet out of Alberta. Alberta's economy is doing better, but the name will always be attached to oil until they diversify throughout the country. Thoughts?

Thanks,
Jason

Q: I bought into both of these companies last year and am down about 50% (along with the rest of the sector). In spite of the overall sector performance what would be your expectation of these 2 companies for this year and next? Should I get out while there is still something left and reinvest into something considerably less volatile or is there a chance these companies can still make a comeback in the short term?? Thanks

Q: I was surprised to see Park Lawn go down over 5 percent today on the announcement of the ceo's departure. When i looked into it a little closer, i saw that Mr. Clark had taken a small company worth 30 million to one evaluated at over 900 million in just seven years. I see Mr. Paul Smith is filling in as chairman while they search for a new ceo. Is it odd that in that time they did not hire someone and groome them for the post? I can see the importance of leadership! Should we be worried with this transition?
