Q: I'm overweight financials - almost 20% of my total portfolio. In relatively equal proportions I hold: BAM, GSY, SLF, X and V. Should I trim across the board or do these stocks have sufficiently different economic drivers that being 20% overweight is not a concern? Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i

Can you assign a rank on the future potential for each of these companies on a scale of 1-10? 1 being dead in the water and 10 being amazing potential from current levels?

If you have 1-2 favs from this list, what makes them better than the rest?

Thanks!

Q: I see GIC’s rates in Canada are gradually moving towards 3%. With talk of BOC successive rate increases - I am dreaming of 4-5% GIC rates as a possibility by year end. My questions is this. Is there a traditional benchmark ratio relationship between the prime rate and the average GIC rate? In other words, if prime gets to 3% or 3.5% - what might one expect GIC rates to do. Thanks in advance.

Q: Thank you for your quick response to my previous question about this stock. As a follow-up question, given its high valuation, what would you consider to be a reasonable 'buy' price for this stock?
I find valuation to be the most difficult metric to figure out and have over-paid for some now hard-hit stocks in the past so I know valuation needs to be considered carefully. Thanks again,

Q: I had planned on removing both of these stocks after 5i discontinued them. Unfortunately, I waited too long on and am now down 75% on REAL and 10% on GUD. I heard a speaker on BNN Bloomberg recently say that it is too late to sell stocks that declined since the fall 2021. My question is - should I continue to hold these stocks if I don't plan to use the cash from their sale to purchase anything new (they will stay in cash)? Is there any hope that they can improve?
thanks as always for your help
