Q: Hello 5i team,
Can I have your opinion on the prospects for Cameco ?
I am seeking Cdn large Cap companies with Global pricing power, who can complete(successfully) on the world stage, and whose stock is well priced.
Is my investment dollar better spent elsewhere, such as Nutrien, BAM.a, MFC or others you know of ?

Q: Good Evening,

I bought Cameco stocks over 5 years ago. At the time, I thought it was a good 'bet' because historically Cameco had reached a high of around $60 per share. I bought in at $22. Despite the passage of time, this stock has stayed around the $10-$12 range. I will admit, this stock was an impulse buy. It was one of those stories where I heard a friend say something and I went ahead and purchased it without doing the proper research. I have elected to hold it because I figure I'm still getting the dividends and I will only lose money if I sell. I am wondering what 5i thinks about holding this stock. Do I hold, or cut my losses and reinvest this money into something else?

Q: Hi,
Unfortunately I bought some of these energy stocks back in 2014 and I am down +30% on all of these. I have just over a 5% weight currently in energy (not including ALA, ENB and TRP which I've included as part of utilities). Which do you think I should continue to hold and which ones should I just throw in the towel and sell?? I am a long term growth investor.

Q: Has the market overreacted to the recent CCO loss? I have made some decent return buying on dips the past few years and selling several days/weeks later as the stock recovers to near its pre-dip low. Do you think this is another blip I can profit from very shorterm? Have I missed something major?

Q: I'm sitting on a +/- 50% loss on both CCO and WJX and have been waiting for some sign of life for several years. Is it time to accept defeat and move on? I'm also holding on to a smaller loss on CXI. If I sell it I need to replace it with some other financial. What would you advise? Also, my CSI has grown to approx. 8% of the portfolio. Do I sell some to cover the other losses even though it's my best performer?
Thanks, Rod

Q: Team,
Just like your thoughts on the listed stocks and which you would add ( in some order of preference) to an existing portfolio skewed to secure dividends and modest growth with a target 7-8% combined dividend and growth. Conversely is any one a definite NO.
Thx

Q: Looking at CCO. What are your recent views on CCO and the uranium price since your last Q/A in January? CCO's stock uptrend continues and appears ready to break out of a 3 year intermediate downtrend. Company pays a $.4 dividend against $.7 cash flow and has a book value around current price. Has Kazakhstan really reduced output? Will new reactors coming on stream affect years of oversupply? Would significant military intervention(s) in 2017/18 affect uranium supply or prices? Are there better ways to play uranium should a broad material recovery occur?
