Q: Hi Team.
In view of the current market rotation, cyclical stocks are performing better. Could you identify three US and three cyclical Canadian stocks that could still outperform in the new environment. What sectors other than finance will benefit from the new administration in the US.
I value your opinion.
Thank you
Raouf

Q: Hello 5i Team!

With STN and WSP recent quarterly results in which company stands to benefit most with the planned future infrastructure spend in the US? I know that both companies are liked by 5i, however, which company has the current edge for a long term investment for capital appreciation? I held Stantec in the past and moved to WSP on your previous recommendations in the Balanced Portfolio.

As always, thanks for the great service!

Q: When looking at BIP.UN an infrastructure stock, can you compare this stock to other infrastructure stocks like a stantec or wsp global. My feeling is that stocks like stantec are more directly involved in the infrastructure industry and will be more directly affected by the Canadian and USA infrastructure spending that are planned in the near future. Your feeling would be appreciated. Tnx.

Q: I have 1/2 of position in STN, and and 1/4 position in WSP. I am down about 2-3% on STN. I am fine with both, but was wondering if I should consolidate to WSP. Two reasons, reduce stocks I own get more concentrated portfolio, and get more significant position in one Engineering company.

Thank you

Q: Do all above companies fall under Industrial? My total weight is 13% Is this too high? I feel that I have too many companies in this sector and may be better to have only 4-5? STN and WSP are similar so would it be better to sell one of these and add to the names that are listed. I am also thinking of selling ET and taking the proceeds to add to the other names now leaving me with 5. Is this a good approach?

Thanks
Dolores

Q: I see that the public sector is entering a growth phase, what would be your top 5 public sector dept picks for an aggressive growth portfolio?
I'm thinking that Health would be a 'no brainer' replacement for condordia, oh but wait...the grey tsunami...so would that be a long or short position.
Cheers and happy Friday

Q: Hello,
I am interested in the "water" theme. There are a couple of stocks in reading your reports that appear to me to be sound investments re. this theme and both are well rated. Would you consider good choices from the stocks you follow for this theme? If so, are they buys at this time or would you wait for a pullback? If there are better names I should consider, I would appreciate you letting me know.
Thanks,
Dan
