Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Just wondering if you could comment on the recent decline in Bank of Internet (BOFI) stock. I am currently slightly below my break even point. It is close to a RSI of 30. Would this be a good time to sell or buy?

Q: Hi Peter.
As a new member I'm curious to know more about the trading parameters of the 5i model portfolio. Will the portfolio ever go short? (Inverse ETF's)? How often will stocks get cut and new ones added? Will the portfolio ever go to a certain level of cash or does it always stay 100% invested. A brief description of what too expect would be helpful.
Thanks Nicholas

Q: Sherritt
Today I am hearing that Cuba is going to change the laws to allow wholly owned companies to invest in Cuba.
Also they are going to gurantee that assetts will not be confiscated.
If this happens willit not be HUGE for Sherritt?
Thanks,Warren.

Q: Thank you Peter, for your response concerning my TFSA portfolio. In keeping with my goal of creating growth, I have come up with the following ETFs and would ask your opinion on their value. If you differ with any of them could I ask you to recommend a substitute. I find it a challenge, with the resources available to me,to pin down ``dividend growth`` ETFs. I have selected the following based on their asset size, MER, and sector diversification. They are as follows:
CDZ, XRE, ZPR, XTR and CHB. They would make up the entire portfolio. Thanks for all you do for us.

Q: Hi Peter:
I am retired with a modest pension, and a huge believer in asset allocation focused on Cdn dividend income. I have recently trimmed several positions to raise a bit of cash (now at 7%) to take advantage of a possible summer pullback. In equities I own AD, AQN, ALA, BCE, BNS, BTE, BA, CFN, CGX, CSU, CPG, III, PBH, TCN, WEQ, as well as 2 dividend funds and 1 REIT fund.

Do you see any red flags? Caution flags for me are CFN and WEQ. Once purchased, I normally like to give the stock "time to perform".

Thanks for your help,
Steve

Q: I'm interested in investing in stocks that are in the business of cloud computing for my tech sector allocation. I'm aware of the big names like Apple, Amazon, Google and now Microsoft but don't feel comfortable picking one or two. Do you have any ETF (or other) recommendations in this sector? Thanks again for all your guidance :)
