Q: Hi Team,
Two part question. Firstly, like a fool I sold out of crwd at the worst possible time during the selloff in anticipation of more bad news and to raise cash in the overall sell off. Ever since it seems to be on a steady rise back up. Is it time to buy back the shares or should I wait until after earnings?
Second; do you see any compelling buys out there today to put new cash to work? If so what are some of your favourite names to purchase today Canadian and US. I was looking at adding to propel possibly …it boggles me it had such strong results and a muted share price ; not sure why but it seems undervalued. Same with go easy but I am already over weight in that one.

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: I have been a shareholder of Brookfield for 14 years and have gotten into the habit of reading CEO (Bruce Flatt) message to shareholders each quarter. I found the sections on in this quarter's letter interesting Share Repurchases and The AI Revolution is Increasingly a Renewable Story that your members may find worth wild reading. He also states that the share price is about 50% of the value of the company. Over the short term I could almost careless about the stock price of the company as the value of the company grows by 20% or so per year. Does this seem out of sorts the way I look at Brookfield.

Q: Hey folks, hope everyone is enjoying the summer season. I own basically an equal weighting of BN (4%), BAM (4%), BEP(4%) in our various accounts. I'd like to buy a 4% position in BIP. Now comes my question, should I be a lumper or splitter - that is, am I ok looking at these as 4% positions, or would I be better to look at this as 12% position moving to 16% wrt Brookfield products??

Q: My wife and I hold a blend of mainly dividend paying blue chip Canadian stocks (examples shown) in a diversified equity/fixed income portfolio. PE ratios on some of our dividend payers seem enticing to add to. As retirees with a reasonably conservative approach, what sectors does 5i feel have the best opportunity for P/E margin expansion over the next several years, assuming no 'abnormal' (whatever that is) market volatility and some moderation of interest rates? Consistent with the margin expansion theme, would 5i suggest we add to our existing dividend payers, or to more growth-oriented names like BN group?
