Q: Hi 5i:
I believe it would be wise to get in soon on 5G hardware producers, transmission networks, appliance manufacturers.
Aside from Canadian telecom networks I cannot readily identify any Canadian candidates.
Could you suggest Canadian opportunities, as well as a few promising US chip makers, networks, and end users?
Many thanks for your great service.

Q: Hi,
I have the above stocks in my wife's account and I'm looking to diversify further. Ultimately, I'm looking to build my own ETF through individual stocks. What else would you add here to fully diversify?

Thanks
Robert

Q: Looking for couple of stocks or ETFs with a 4%+ yield to add to an existing RESP. My time frame to hold would be about 4 years and the weighting would be about 5% of my portfolio. I am fairly well diversified so do not have any sector preferences, just want something lower risk that I can hold for a few years that will pay a decent dividend.
What would be your recommendations?
Many Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter and Team,
I hold a large position in TELUS. But I'm concerned about the impact of a possible decision by the Canadian (or other) governments to refuse to accept the Huawei 5G system. Your thoughts? If I believe that Huawei will be rejected, would it be better to exit, or at least reduce, TELUS? Thanks in advance.

Q: My only holding in the communication sector right now is a half position in Telus and I would like to increase my weighting in the sector. Would you recommend that I top it up to a full position or purchase something else in the sector. I am also underweight US equities right now so I would accept a Canadian and/or US recommendation.

Q: Hi
I hold all these stocks in a non registered account, to take advantage of their dripping and tax advantages. I have the $ to buy another holding. What top 3 companies do you suggest to add to this mix for a long term hold, my goal is the highest dividend possible, with as little risk as possible. Also, do you have any issues with the compaies already held? I also have other growthier holdings in my tfsa as well as etfs for US and International exposure in my RRSP.
thank you
Michele

Q: In my RRSP account - I am looking to add 1 more company to the above list. I am somewhat of a conservative growth investor - would like something that will increase over time yet paying respect to risk. I am looking at BIP.UN or SLF - can you provide your opinion and maybe suggest others that you feel might "fit" ? Your opinion is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Q: With all of the wizards running to keep their pensions, a platform has been used as another campaign promise, ie to legislate something like a 25% reduction in cell phone rates.
Although they haven't been elected and will certainly will not get a majority this time around I would like you to please give us your analysis of what would happen to T and BCE in the long shot chance this becomes legislation?

Thanks

Q: Hello Peter, any ideas about recent sell-off in RCI.B? I read some news about the back to school promotion intensify between RCI and Shaw's Freedom. Considering overall rate dropping backdrop, do you think Telecom sector is at bargain compared to other "safe" sectors (e.g., Utilities, REITs). THANKS!
