Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Please rank the following companies on growth for the following 1 year and 3 to 5 years span. I own all of them in taxable account some of them for 5 years+ and plan to start moving some into my TFSA. As you can notice I like your recommandations.

Thank you,

Q: It seems the economies of Canada and the United States are diverging and not for the better in Canada. This makes it difficult for me to buy Canadian companies as opposed to American. My question is, have any Canadian companies foreseen an advantage to shifting a good part of their operations to the United States to take advantage of the possibilities for making better profits?

Q: My overall Industrial weighting is fairly bang on with SIS, TFI, WSP, and a US industrial ETF.

I have been looking at TVK. Would it make sense to trim WSP at 4.59% of total portfolio down and add TVK?

WSP has been a great and I assume safer, but I can see trimming it down to 3% and adding TVK?

Thanks again.

Q: I'm looking to close a gap in my non-registered portfolio in the Industrial Sector. I'm not too concerned about industry. I'm looking for some reasonably priced options that you guys like that have good growth potential, but also pay a (growing) dividend. My intention is a long-term buy and hold. Would you please recommend your top 3 Cdn and top 3 US "likes" and rank order purchase preference from 1 to 6 (with 1 being your top pick) and any rationale for your choices that you think might be helpful to my decision making process. Thank you and thanks (yet) again for your excellent service.

Q: Over the past 5 yrs these stocks have done quite well - thank you. (Except BYD).

My portfolio has grown but these are small % and need a top up to have a meaningful impact.

Looking ahead 3-5 yrs could you rank these on moat strength and which would be best to buy now?

Thank you

Q: I get it that general-contractors like BDT are exposed to cyclicality in ways that engineering-and-design co's like WSP are not, but then I compare their P/E ratios (20.5 vs 54.5) and wonder if the latter could ever grow as much as the former - or is BDT's low P/E just a fact of life in cyclical sectors, such that it's the one that's growth-limited?

Q: Hello 5I
I wish you all a happy Thanksgiving and Thank you for all you do for us.
I recently bought some Honeywell (HON)shares thinking that the spinout that they announced was a good move. I was comparing them to Fortive (FTV) (Not many past questions on this company) and now I am not sure if they are the better vehicle. Could you please weigh in on this and if needed, add any other name thar you may like more. I am not worried about tax implications of selling. Which direction would you take if it was your portfolio?
Once again, Thank you
Jeremy

Q: We are planning to set up a separate investment account for our grandkids. Assume a 10 year hold. There are a few sectors we would want to overweight - 3 stocks, CAD or US, in Financials, Industrials, Technology and 1-2 stocks in the others. What would you look for and how would that translate into individual stock selections.
