Q: I started following the 5i balanced equity portfolio in my LIRA a couple of months ago, but to change it up I am thinking about taking a 5% portfolio position in one of these companies. I have a 25-year investment time horizon for my LIRA. If I wanted to replace one of the 5i balanced equity portfolio funds with one of SHOP, APPL, TSLA, GOOG or AMZN, what would you recommend (both the one I would sell and the one to replace it with)?

Q: Hello Peter, Asked this question over weekend, but may be lost somewhere so asking again.
As part of a balanced portfolio in TFSA, which of these are worthy of new money in order of preference ( FROM TOTAL RETURN PERSPECTIVE - 3 YEAR TIME FRAME), I own all of these but low in weights. X, NFI, TOY,NTR,QSR,SIS, ATD.
Or if anyone else you like better.
Also, if any of these is a outright sell and re-allocate into others.

Q: Good morning team
Can you steer me in the direction of some very good articles on Reverse mortgages please? I'm thinking of major upgades/renovations to my home. I spoke to an appraiser and he pointed out to me that if we hit a 10 year ish stretch of decline or no growth in realestate that it could be a very bad idea if I chose to sell??
Thanks for keeping me on track. All is going very well at this juncture.!

Q: Hi, 5i team
I have been trying to follow your balanced portfolio but I haven’t bought TOY yet. I guess I was hoping to see some huge drop of the price to get in. Due the big sell off today, do you recommend to initiate a full position today? Do I need to wait a couple of days until the dust settles?
Thanks in advance!

Q: Hello,
I'm considering buying the Edgepoint Global Growth and Income fund, however the MER is very expensive series A at 2%. This would be a 25% holding in a LIRA account. I like the set-up income distribution with 70% global equities and 30% bonds. Can I please have your opinion on this fund, and could please provide the names of any alternative funds/etf's with a similar structure.

Thank you,

Glen

Q: I'm looking for a safe place for cash with a decent yield. This could be for several months or several years. How would you compare ZSH to PSA? Is one better than the other? With uncertainty over interest rates, do you have any recommendations for the fixed income portion of an investment portfolio?
