Q: I am retired living on dividend income. I just sold my EFN as it hasn't really done anything the past two years. I have a small position of ECN from the spinoff and am wondering if I should add my EFN proceeds to ECN?
I am ok with the 1% yield as an income investor if you expect above average capital gains over the next 2-3 vs bank stocks (TD or BNS).
Or if ECN returns will be similar to TD or BNS, then I will sell ECN also and just invest the proceeds into the bank stocks.

Q: Good day, I understand (from your responses to other questions) that you like EFN, and, looking back a few months ago, it was that you held in your model portfolio (and switched out of it just before it dropped somewhat significantly), my question is this, at what price will you find it compelling value to add back into your portfolio? Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i

I'm thinking of selling both MDA and EFN (down 30% on each), and consolidating them into MAL. Do you think this would be a good switch? I understand that EFN is unrelated to the two others, but it's a small holding and I would like to consolidate it into a more attractive name.

Thanks,
Jordan

Q: I just saw my daughter's TFSA and she is down 31%, with the above stocks well in the negative. The only positive stocks were the 3 we recommended to her from 5-I; CGX, PHO and SIS! Would you recommend selling these stocks and moving on? If so, any suggestions would be welcome. She has a cash balance in the account of 9,000.00 and she is down around 11,500.00 at the moment. Thanks for any help you can provide. We have been very pleased with our progress since we joined 5-I! Lesley
