Can you also discuss PE's, trailing and forward and their relation to both the projected EPS growth and historical valuations? Please deduct as many question credits as necessary. Thank you.

Q: I am constructing a dividend growth portfolio with the intention of holding all positions for the longterm, holding the following equities in equal weight (likely only one of MRU or L - or should I include both?), with 80% of the portfolio consisting of these individual equities and 20% in the ETF VGG.

Would there be any in this list you would not include, and are there other Canadian equities you would consider for this list? Is this the appropriate number of positions for such a portfolio. Please deduct multiple credits as required, thank you.

Q: Good morning 5i, I've held CCL.B for a few years and until the positive results in the 1st Q this year giving it a bump it has been a slow grower. I'm considering moving on to something with more momentum. Two questions: What are your thoughts on CCL.B for the next 3-5 years?, and if it were to be sold, what are your top picks in the consumer cyclical sector, Cdn or U.S. for growth and ideally a small dividend? I already have ATD and BYD.
Thank you

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

What is the long term value of CCL.B? With the recent quick rise in the stock price tied to decent earnings, it looks like its at the top of the range it has been trading in since about 2016.... I think we've been holding this in the 5i model portfolio since 2010 which is great.

I am wondering if we have realized most of the potential here and this money could be redirected elsewhere that has a higher differential between the current price and the long term value?
