Q: Hi Peter, why the sell of on the rails - in particular to CN and CP. Was there any news that affected them directly. Also would you consider them a buy and if so which one would you add. Can you also speak to evaluation. Thank you

Q: I would like to buy a railroad for my son's portfolio. I note the Cdn railroads are currently more expensive on a PE basis than the US rails. This would be a long-term hold (he is 29 yoa, and going into RSP). What would be 5i's preferred choice? If you think CP or CNR, I am not opposed to waiting for a more favourable entry point.

Q: This is my selection of stocks for steady revenue (and secondarily potential growth) .Since a serious economic crisis is not excluded in my opinion ,I now plan to : 1) only keep Cies at low risk to become out of business and that should maintain dividends, based on their history and financial strength , and to : 2) sell the other stocks to buy ETF instead..

Wich stocks can be "relatively safely" kept at long term for this purpose ?
