Q: Hello 5i team. Greatly appreciate the terrific info I get from your site.
Hear many opinions on when interest rates will rise and the impact this will have on different types of investments. I would appreciate your views on this, specicially how higher interest rates (whenever this occurs) will impact stocks, bonds and preferred shares.
I have recently been using funds from maturing GICs to purchase yield-producing ETFs, primarily in bonds and preferreds (CLF, CBO, CPD, XPR, XHY). Plan to continue doing this while GIC rates are so low, though will retain a sizeable portion of overall investments in GICs for safety.
Thanks. Tom

Q: Energy is 18% of our portfolio (600G), with full shares in HSE,BTE and CPG for the dividend, and 1/2 shares in CVE and KEY for growth. We do depend on dividends for half of our income. Do you think this is a reasonable apportionment?

Q: I just read an article were the analyst was concerned about high margin levels. It got me thinking about the 5i investment philosophy. Do you ever consider factors like this or where we are in the business cycle, or investor sentiment, or is that all just noise.Are the fundamentals of the company and its growth prospects the main determinant for you?

Q: Each day I check Member Question to see if a stock that I hold is being written about. Is it possible for 5iResearch to have software that has a database of stocks that are of interest to each member. Then when that stock is mentioned in Member Questions, an e-mail notice would be sent to the individual client to inform them that a stock of interest to them is being mentioned. I believe such a program would be very useful to 5iResearch members & complimentary to the services 5iResearch provides.
