Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Good Morning
Magna and Exco make up about 9% of my registered account. I would like to add New Flyer based on your comments. Would you endorse a switch from XTC to NFI? Do you see NFI as auto related? I am concerned with my sector exposure.

Thank you

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team.

I have one account (representing about 20% of my overall portfolio) where I hold only the Balanced Equity Portfolio. KXS is pushing 7% of this account, so I was thinking of trimming it back to about 5%. All other positions in the account are at about 4% to 5%, except HCG, NFI, and PKI, each at about 2%.

Do you think I should top up one of the half-positions, keep some cash handy for future purchases, or leave well enough alone and keep KXS at 7%? (Note: I also own smaller positions in KXS in a couple of TFSA accounts.)

Thanks,

Scott

Q: Hell 5i team,
We have all dropped the superlatives regarding your excellent service,because of getting used to it, but we still believe you are great, even though we don't mention it as much!
I have two questions here, really. I have Stella Jones and Stantec in my TFSA and I have been wondering whether it is worth it to sell them and buy something like New Flyer there and putting these two in my margin account, obviously because of growth potential. How would you see this move?

Also, in an answer this morning you put PG in health care. Is that because it has enough of a health care business that you could classify it that way? On Morningstar it is classified in household and Personal products, I think.
thanks

Q: Peter and team:

I am currently down about 20% on TFI in a well balanced long term hold portfolio.
I am considering cutting my losses and buying NFI. Would you consider these in the same "sector", and what is you opinion of this switch.
My concern is how much upside is left in NFI. I have owned it in my kids RESP and done well (2.5x), but am wondering how much "growth" is left.

Than you as always for a great service!

Phil
