Q: Telus is having a solid pull back today - I believe on news of it's capital raise at $52. I've been a long time holder of the stock but had to sell to assist with a house transaction. I enjoy it's capital appreciation and consistent dividend growth. Is now a good time to re-enter given that I mostly mimic the BE Portfolio and currently have no telecom exposure?

Thanks!

Q: I have some extra room in my existing telecom allocation and am looking at adding TMUS and dropping SJR.B. Or should I just add further to VZ or FIVG to continuing increasing my US exposure and currency diversification? I am retired but do not depend on the income from this portfolio which is intended to be widely diversified and focused on dividend growing solid companies.

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

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.
