Q: Hello

Brookfield Corp has smartly shot up to $82, from $75 level a few weeks ago, with stock showing strong momentum. It seems to have followed its private equity peers, with a favorable scenario after Trump win.

Company is also due to report in a couple of days.

We have a very small position < 1%, but like the Co a lot, being one of your favorites.

How would you approach building a position to at least 2% ? Would you be comfortable adding some shares, before the results and so at what price range ?

What is your recommendation to further consolidate this position, after results, if any weakness and price levels, please ?

Thank You

Q: Hello 5i,
It was mentioned that AW:CA is worth keeping for income. So far I am down $3,000. Is there a reason for this? I know we are not fortune tellers, but after an initial period of indecision would it be expected to go up? Would you suggest an adding to QSR in a U.S. account or another Canadian option? If so what should be considered? Time frame is five years for this 78 year old income investor.

Q: So Elon's gamble of aligning himself with the Donald, appears to have been good for his stock. My 3% position in TSLA is now finally above even - which is the point I said I would sell and buy a tech ETF instead. But as TSLA might keep climbing, I'm now wondering if selling just my upside periodically, and keeping my position at 3%, might work - until the knife starts to fall again. In other words, is a bird in hand really worth two in the bush, and how hard is it to catch a falling knife?

Q: Hi there,

You’ve often advised to ‘let the price of good stocks run.’ Does this mean that as long as a stock is performing well, it’s okay not to rebalance, even if it becomes a large part of the portfolio? For example, 100 shares bought 10 years ago might now be worth over half a million if left untouched. I’m curious if professionals would rebalance successful stocks like NVDA. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks in advance.

Q: Looking to diversify into more international equities. Trump is not fond of China, Russia is currently uninvestable (no ETFs). Are there certain countries/regions you think look good fundamentally and would likely have a good relationship with Trump? Please name a few international ETFs which you think could perform well over the next 5 years.
