Q: I bought equal positions of SIS and CCL.B, which are in your balanced portfolio August 2017. Since then SIS is up 24% and CCL.B is up 12%. It seems that there is a lot more growth potential in SIS, so therefore I am considering selling CCL.B and adding proceeds to SIS. Would you agree with this trade? Or would you recommend another stock to add to with my CCL.B proceeds for better growth and momentum?

Q: Hi there,
I am an investor who generally does not like single company risk so i often end up with small groupings of stocks in the same line of business. Hence I owned these three in the packaging business for a fairly long period of time and done well in all three. Can you explain to me which of these business is likely to do better going forward and if you had to drop one which would it be. (i am thinking Winpak)

Thanks for all you do.

Q: Which packaging manufacturer has the best ability to transition away from plastics into recycled and/or paper based packaging? As TCL reinvents itself as a flexible packaging producer (Coveris acquisition) do you see this, or have you heard this discussed by management?

Q: Good day 5i team
I would like to know why and when to change a companies sector (TSX) to one I feel is more appropriate in my portfolio. It is something that skews a balanced portfolio as stocks will move with their sectors? I am using the examples from your balanced portfolio that have different sectors listed from the TSX. Or does it matter at all as all these companies are touching on both allocations?
Thank You J

Q: Hi there,
Just doing some portfolio re-balancing as my portfolio seems to have gotten off track a bit lately. I am running with about a 22% weight in industrials but have CCL and richards Packaging classified there. I always struggle where to classify these two - more suited to materials or do you have an alternate classification. i am extremely underweight in Consumer Discretionary. Any recommendations? i have been reluctant to buy anything in this space lately!

Q: Hi 5i,
I have aprox. 20k in cash in my RRSP. I am trying to decide in what to invest it in. I am turning 37 years old this year. Should I be leaning towards a growth portfolio like I am doing with my TFSA?

What would be your top 5 stocks you would start your RRSP US or CDN with $20k cash?

I also have aprox $160k in a LIRA right now. How should i go about investing this money? Can you recomend me specific stocks or ETF's?

Thanks so much for your insight.
