Q: Good morning team 5i. I am in the middle of rebalancing my very well diversified 4 PFs, that is doing well all in all with most of your stock suggestions in your PFs (THANK YOU). I treat them as one PF. Around Apr 23/15, you mentioned that an investor should have no more than 15% to 20% in Small Caps. Around June 16/15 you mentioned Cap Sizes are as follows; SMALL - 75 million to 500 million, MID - 500 mill to 1 Billion, and LARGE -1 Billion and above. Canadian Business Magazine 2015 Special Edition on Pg 127, mentions SMALL 1 Billion or less, MID - 1 to 5 Billion, and LARGE - 5 Billion and up.
Would you please clarify this for me?!! If I follow Can Bus. Mag I am too heavily weighted in small caps!
Also would IWO ETF be considered SMALL or do ETFs fit the consideration of Cap size?

Q: Your last post was when CKI was at $9.50 It is now at $12.00
I am up 50%. It pays a decent 3.3% div. Would you buy, sell, or hold at this level. Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,

I owned some Growlife shares in 2015. And did pretty good with a short term investment.

The company vanished (after my exit) and I have now received a request to particiate in a class action suit. I guess they did not tell the truth all the time, or something like that.

I did not hold many shares, so the likely result would be a small amount of money.

My question is, is there danger that there would not be sufficient funds to support the claim process, and I might be called upon to contribute ?

I am OK if this question is public, but I doubt if anybody would be intersted.

Q: The Bombardier preferred shares BBD.PR.C have declined significantly over the past several months. Currently at $16.45 the yield is 9.50%. Is there too much risk associated with this company to own this preferred? Thanks.

Q: With Friday's closing price at a 14% discount to the offer from TDG should I load up and buy more?

Q: I currently hold SLW and G each at 2.5 % of my well diversified portfolio. Would you be comfortable now increasing one or the other or both to 4 or 5 % for income and some growth. I am under water 12 and 13 % in each. I also hold First Quantum. Many thanks!

Q: Good morning.

I've currently got 3% of my portfolio in Healthcare (AMGN and PHM split roughly 70/30) and would like to add to bring it up closer to 5%.

Currently thinking of adding more PHM or picking up some GUD but would appreciate your thoughts. This would be in my TFSA, so am comfortable with more risky assets. Maybe you think something different entirely?

Q: Wonderful company. Reading their financial statements, however, they are starting to 'speak' less about growth and more about profits, cash flow, dividends. Is there any reasonable work that indicates their market share? Without getting into related/adjacent industries/products do they have any real opportunity to grow left? Thanks for the A+ service!

Q: With the breakup of JDSU soon, can you explain the right of debenture owners to convert to common stock although JDSU says it does not expect anyone will because the conversion price is $18 and change well above the price JDSU is trading at i.e. $12.50 or so. So what happens? Do debenture owners get paid out? Thanks.

Q: According to the charts in TD Broker, the PE multiple on this stock has doubled over the last 5 years(give or take) and the stock price has moved from $40 to $500. Do you think the value is too high even with the probability of more acquisitions? Do you find PE an important component to consider in a growth stock like this one? If so how important? Thank you
