Q: Hi 5i team!

I am scratching and pounding my head on which stocks to buy next. Here is my dilemma, I know I should buy stocks to diversify my portfolio. However, when there is blood on the streets(oil sector) it is time to buy. Need you to give me a clearer path on which stocks to buy to complement my portfolio. Here is what I have so far:

ETF; VSB 15%, VTI 15%, VEU 12% and VCE 10% which will be sold once I am a handful of stocks away from completing the model growth portfolio.

Stocks; Raging from 2% to 5%.
SJ, NUS, CXI, AYA, BNS, STN, ESL, HCG, GUD, SGY and 12% cash.

Thank you

Q: Hello

Noticed TWX slipping a little as of late despite very strong box office results along with other positives moving forward. Any reasons we should be aware that might explain the 9% drop since the end of December

Thanks for all you do

Q: Hi team, Hopefully you can help me. Supposedly Ireland will be the fastest-growing economy in 2015 for the second consecutive year.

According to the Goodbody report, the Irish recovery is solid and based on strong domestic demand. After 5 years Ireland's budget deficit will dip to 3% from 32%. More on the link:

On top of that, Moody's upgraded deposit ratings of Bank of Ireland (not sure how important this would be).

Would've thought these were all good news and IRE would be up not down by almost 8%!! Any thoughts please.

Thank you!!

Q: I need a transportation stock. I currently only own TRN.US Trinity in that space. I seem to be torn between Trimac and Transforce. They both have high debt but Transforce
Seems a lot more expensive. I prefer to go with the one that has the most potential at their current prices. I realize that Transforce is safer with its size. I respect your opinion, thank you.
