Q: Good morning 5i team,

I’m considering moving on from Linamar and CGI group in search of better growth prospects. I still like both companies, and believe they still have a good outlook, however, after holding each for some time I’ve been growing restless with the share prices seemingly stuck in the mud. Perhaps I’m just being impatient, but I cant help but wonder if these holdings are dead money. At least for the next year or two anyway.

I’m considering switching out Linamar for either New Flyer Industries, or Premium Brands Holdings, and CGI for either Kinaxis or Celestica.

Could you please give your opinion on whether it’s worth being patient with LNR/GIB.A, or a good idea to move on? And if moving on is recommended, would you consider the alternatives I’ve mentioned as good replacements with growth for the next 1-2 years in mind?

As always, thank you for your excellent insight and advice.
Tristan.

Q: With the recent changes to the balanced equity portfolio is it now tech heavy or are you considering CLS Consumer Cyclical (Discretionary) to replace CGX because it is a hardware based business and not software?

Thank you.

Q: In August of this year, you noted that although Celestica was a good company, it was also a "business... that ... is more of a 'later cycle' business, meaning it does better as the economy really gets going."

Would you consider the economy having picked up enough for this company to be a good buy at this time? (I already own Enghouse, Sylogist, Avigilon and Apple in Technology, each with a 4% weighting, except for AVO which is at 2.5%)

I am doing some year-end cleaning up of deadwood, and re-allocating some funds to a few companies with more growth. (Mind you, I'm thinking of taking AVO behind the barn and shooting it, to offer an old farmer's almanac analogy.)

Your thoughts are always valued.
