Q: Good morning 5i. My TFSA has re-trenched from a high of 108 k down to the low 90k's. My holdings were all good growth stocks but gone are TOY, SIS, NFL P.B.. I will jettison CAE this week. So I'm left with Go Easy, Boyd, and Kinaxis with a lot of cash. I will ad Bama, and Atd.B. Can you suggest 5 more dividend payers with some growth prospects for a 3 to 5 year hold. Many thanks .david

Q: I currently own TCL.A and NFI in my RRSP account and underwater by quite a bit and wonder if it would be better to sell one of these stock and buy BAD? I would add BAD but then I will be overweight in this sector as I also own WSP, SIS and CAE.
Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,
Hold the above companies in my TFSA ($30,000). % holdings around 10% for each, except CAE, OSS TRI, AD which are 3% - 5%.

Looking to deploy $5,000. Looking at d-un, dir-un, Telus & Fortis.

Safety and Income preferred, as in mid 60's. I would certainly welcome any other suggestions.

Thank You.


Larry

Q: I currently hold the above 3 stocks at around 2.5% positions and am wondering if there are better options in the industrial sector or should I hold tight. CAE is up over 30% but AFN is down 25% and TFII is down 8%. I’m a retired income investor.
Thanks
Lyle.

Q: I would like your opinion on MSI going forward.
I have owned MSI in my TFSa for several years now & it has done very well, however how does it compare it to another industrial companies such as CAE going forward. Some parameters of comparison that would interest me would be debt level, holding up in a recession, insider ownership.
If you think a switch from MSI would be advantageous at this point are there other companies that you would recommend over CAE?

Q: Hi 5i,

Looking to rebalance my industrials listed above. Before asking my question a little background info: Sitting at 10% sector weight with each of the listed stocks at equal weight. I would like companies with manageable debt, conservative growth and mid-large cap, with growing dividends. Shareholder friendly companies are also a nice to have. I also have a 10+ investment horizon.

Questions base on above, and please deduct as needed:

1) Would you continue to hold these stocks?
2) Which ones would have major issues if and when a slow down occurs?
3) Given answers to above, which new industrials would you recommend to replace the above?

Thanks,
Chris
