Q: Whenever analysts talk about PBH (premium brands) or CSU (constellation) they inevitably talk about them being over-valued and due to fall or tread water for a while. You've allowed both to rise to about the 6.5% level in the portfolio (as per the last record on your site) without trimming. Does that mean you disagree with the analysts, or simply don't care about a short term fallback of 10%-20% since you are confident they will eventually regain that and move past it?

Q: Hello,
I already have a full position(5%) on CSU but I used to hold Engh and Amaya earlier. The latter two have done well after being removed from the portfolio. I dont hold any of Engh or TSGI. I am torn between adding to my position on CSU due to the high confidence or to Amaya or ENGH? Sorry for this difficult question. Thanks. Regards, Shyam

Q: Hello 5i
In yesterday’s Q&A you replied to a question from Glen that one of your important considerations when assessing a company was “strong management”. I couldn’t agree with you more. Would you consider adding a management rating to the “report card” section of your company reports?
And on that note would you supply 6 companies that have admirable management and board teams.
Many thanks

Q: Please suggest 2 companies in Canada and 2 companies in the USA you would buy today. No need to worry about portfolio diversity, or sector weighting. Just your 2 favorites in each country and let's say with a 5 year time frame before I would want to access the funds or switch them to income stocks.

Q: Peter,
Thanks to 5i we purchased CSU shares some years ago. As of close of business yesterday the shares had risen 510%. (I sold some shares last year when the weighting became to high). Now Mr. Rosen is predicting a crash or a recession. He seems to be counselling selling shares to raise cash. However why would I sell my hard won shares because of Mr. Rosen’s predictions? Investors need to think of themselves as owners of a business not “riverboat gamblers” going to get rich quick. I can assure the members that the officers of CSU are not selling their shares because Mr. Rosen is calling a market top. I once read somewhere that making predictions is a bit like spitting into the wind - you got to accept there will be a little spit on the toe. In Mr. Rosen’s case he seems to be going for a “spit polish” - maybe on both shoes!
Thanks for all you do
Jim
