Q: Hi Folks,
I am in the process of tweaking my portfolios in case we have a recession or we go into a bear market. I am thinking of selling CTC.A MCD and WSP and buying COST, DOL, L and adding to ATD. Your opinion is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Q: Hi Team

I have a question regarding 2 companies, thnk is trading at multi tear lows, it started as a qt and I am sceptic of these types, imho, insiders get a ton of cheap shares when they bring it to market. The other one is byl, they are both part of the e-commerce of things and there has been a lot of hype in these companies in the last couple of years, kinda like the latest greatest.......both have been picks on bnn a couple of times by one of their guests, every time he picks then the stocks jump on high volume and then settle down a few days latter. What do you think of these 2, worth a crap shoot.
Thanks for your research

Q: Could I get your favourite enhanced income etfs for a registered and non registered account

Q: Dear 5i,
I just renewed my annual membership. I have been a happy member since you launched your service. I just wanted to email my gratitude for providing timely and unbiased objective information. I am a basic subscriber but I like the other options you provide and the continual improvements. Thanks and stay well!

Q: I have been following KUT for some time and am wondering if now is the time to pull the trigger and buy some for my small cap portfolio. Yesterday's results appear very good to me - EBIDTA up 55% and Revenues up 42% YOY (52% constant currency).....how do these results compare to expectations and any reason you can see for the weakness (albeit on very small volume) after the Q announcement?

Could you also comment on TCL.A's continued weakness and if it is worth holding in my income portfolio. The dividend is nice and I don't mind holding if its safe and there is a reasonable expectation that the stock will be higher in 3-5 years.

Thanks for the support and all the great insights over the years

Q: We have new money to invest and would like to use it to correct our only significant sector weighting imbalance, which is in technology. The sector is currently represented by CSU, DSG, KXS and SHOP, where all but CSU are down.

5i has often stressed the importance of both maintaining target sector weights and not leaving too much cash idle. Now we find ourselves with the technology sector struggling and would like some guidance on how to proceed.

For the existing positions, which are long term holds, would you be inclined to spread out the additional investments over the medium term, say the next 6-12 months, or would you tend to be more aggressive, investing in the shorter term?

How would you rate (1-10) CSU, DSG, KXS and SHOP for additional money today?

If we were to initiate long term positions in TOI, TIXT, NVEI and LSPD today, how would you rate them?

Once again, a big thanks to you all at 5i! We've just renewed our membership after a first year. We only wish we'd known of your service earlier!

Q: I own the above three stocks in my TFSA and I'm down considerably on all so wondering at this point if you would bring any of them back to original weighting, sell or hold with a short reason why. Medium to high risk, long term growth investor.

Thanks in advance. Please deduct credits as you see fit.

Q: I bought the above stocks in my Margin account last year as a basket of small caps and I'm down on all so wondering at this point if you would bring any of them back to original weighting, sell or hold with a short reason why. Medium to high risk, long term growth investor.

Thanks in advance. Please deduct credits as you see fit.

Q: With interest rates on the rise how will this affect dividend paying stocks, dividend funds and ETFs. If not positive for this sector, what sector do you feel in your wisdom will benefit most?

Q: What ETFs/mutual funds ( not limited to Canadian equities ) would you recommend for a young couple (in their early 30s) for their TFSA. It will be for a long term hold. If more than 1 ETF is advised, what percentage in each ETF. Thank you

Q: What are the prospects for a five year
hold.

Thanks

Q: Hello,

I own the whole list (weights 1% to 2%) thinking I was being diversified but maybe went too far.

1) I am on the right track to reduce to about 3 names?
2) Which names optimise income?
3) Alternative names that I might have missed?

Many thanks!

Q: I want to add BRP to my portfolio but I dont want to be the sucker that adds it just before it and the market tanks even more. Thoughts on timing to add this name?

Q: All my fixed income is in XCB,XRB and VAB. All are held in tax sheltered RSPs and distributions are in DRIP programs. My question is " would you continue with the DRIP programs as I have to start withdrawals in 5 years when I turn 71? " These bond ETFs are all in serious down trends.

Q: tamarack and crew had significant announcements today.your thoughts dave

Q: Follow up to your answer to Greyhair on TCL.A Are TCL.A days numbered in the income portfolio? Bought a position after the drop last fall but the slide seems to continue. Yields is good but is it time to move on?

Q: Hello,

What happened to TCL, is it a good entry point or we need to let the dust settle.

Thank you
Ed

Q: Thoughts on how to stomach all the volatility. Since I know you are not a fan of stop losses does one just grin and bear it. It's nice when some sectors are working but what does one do when all sectors potentially stop working? It seems there are so many unknowns which the market doesn't like. In your experience, what is it like to go through a bear market and what advice you you have for nervous retail investors. Your wisdom appreciated!

Q: I want to reduce my foreign investments to less than $100,000.

I'm interested in momentum strategies and now own MTUM. Is there a TXS listed ETF which gives me the same result? How about a momentum ETF that replicates the world's stock momentum?
