Q: Thanks to all of you for a terrific service. I obviously appreciate the excellent returns, but I really enjoy the opportunity to keep learning every day from your reports and thoughtful answers in the question section.

Could you please give a quick risk / reward outline on the above three small caps recently mentioned. Secondly, what are the five small caps in the US or Canada you are most excited about today if portfolio diversification is not an issue.

Please charge as many credits as needed.

Thanks again,
Brian

Q: Good morning 5i,
I notice that you give lists of stocks. So, I will ask a similar question but perhaps more difficult. If one were interested in building a socially responsible portfolio, I hear that 15 to 20 stocks would do, what would you choose, given the need for domestic, US and International?
thanks

Q: Looking for some feedback on my International holdings in my RRSP. Currently have zwp; zem; and Zdi.
I am interested in PID to compliment my existing holdings. I would split my current zdi holding to make 4 equal positions.
Pid has had better performance over the last 5 yrs, covers the same geography as zdi however with different country and industry weighting’s. Pid’s MER is higher than Zdi with a lower dividend.
Is it worthwhile to split my zdi position, convert entirely to Pid or leave well enough alone.
I do not have to Rif for another 9 years

Q: FOMO with my current stash of cash....I've cleaned up some small positions and been sitting on the cash for what seems like forever now....The market is always right but I still have red lights flashing and alarms bells blaring in my investor brain with the markets continued moving along like all is normal. I am buying some target names that haven't bounced back in small amounts but I am starting to question if I should get back into the market again with my hoard of cash....

What are the 5i collectives thoughts on good cash position right now. Currently I am at 15% cash while I am usually at 2% range. So it isn't like I am 100% cash but still some FOMO thoughts fighting against market correction coming cash hold.

Q: These companies are all operating a cloud platform that delivers a range of network services to business world. Are they basically similar so they are competing against one another? If I am interested in this space, should I buy them all in equal weight? or just one or two names? Your thoughts please. Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i team,
I notice a couple of questions on gaining access to the Canadian Financial Summit. I attended that, typically not live, but over the following day or so. Thanks very much for the free ticket. Some great presentations.
I may be mistaken on this and, if so, please disregard this note. Each day’s presentations were available for 48 hours after that particular day, then locked down. That was the free ticket. On Sunday night, all days were locked down. To view the presentations today, you have to buy the All Access Pass for $197 (which was on sale over the weekend). The All Access Pass also gives you some bonus documents in the Lifetime Access Library, I understand.

Q: I intend crystallizing a loss on CNQ and was trying to decide on buying a company in roughly the same business so that I stay in the market segment. SU might be the obvious choice but have some already. Can you suggest some alternatives from the those noted or others, preferably with a divided.
Btw I find the dividend updates very useful.
Thanks
