Q: Hi there,

I have a fairly heavy weighting of SIS that is about break even. I'm tiring of waiting for it and wonder what your advice would be on selling SIS to establish 3 equal weighted positions in VRTX, EXAS and ISRG? My thinking is I like the medical exposure and they are nicely diversified. Do you like this move and would you choose these 3 companies or suggest an alternative?

Thanks

Q: I really liked the recent results from Tecsys, showing excellent growth of revenue and profit, and initiated a small position. Thinking of adding some more. Seems like a less expensive logistics/supply chain type company than Descartes, which seems pricey to me, for the growth rate DSG has. Do you like TCS, or is DSG a better buy here for long term growth? Thanks.

Q: Thanks to you Peter, I purchased Winpak (a co I'd never heard of) when I first joined 5i over 5 years ago. and am up about 75%. That said, it's been flat for the past 3 years and, since it's now in my TFSA, I'm wondering if it's time to sell for either a growthier or a higher-dividend paying company. I'm prepared to be patient, but if you see WPK as having a low dividend and slow growth future, perhaps it's not an ideal TFSA holding. Your thoughts appreciated.

Q: Hi 5i,
I'm considering our 2020 TFSA contribution options and wonder whether we should add to our BAM holding (1.7%), OpenText (1.5%) or start a new position in Kinaxis? Our other Brookfield holdings (in registered accounts) include BEP (5%) and BIP (4%). Thanks for your advice.

Q: I am a conservative, retired, dividend-income investor. I normally save up to 5% "full positions" for typical blue chip stocks, like the telecoms, pipelines, banks, etc.

I have partial positions in Leon's (2% position), Magna (2%) and Nutrien (1.5%). Would you add to any or all of these? At this stage in the market cycle, would you favour one over the rest...please rank.

Thanks...your guidance throughout 2019 was much appreciated...love the service.

Q: Hello,

Happy New Year! What are your thoughts on SIR corp. They seem to have an attractive dividend..but ..is this a red flag? or a good time to pick up a few..NWH.un had an attractive dividend a few years ago with over 10% and then had some decent capital gains..Would you consider this a similar opportunity? Thanks.

Regards,

Shyam
