Investment Q&A

Q: Everyone,
If you could only own shares in three Canadian companies what names do you suggest? My thoughts are CSU, BAM and a big Canadian bank. Clayton

Q: These are my wife's holdings in her non-registered account. Held these for very long time. EMP.A I bought for her maybe 5 years ago when down a lot. Sitting on a fair bit of cash. Thinking of adding to banks at some point (recession?) or adding BCE and EIF? T is small holding at 2000 shs. Comments/suggestions please. Oh, own ETF ZUE for quite a while also. RRSP has other banks +++

Q: In a recent question you answered " we think one of the most important skills for investors who choose to own high-quality compounders is the willingness to hold them through thick and thin, even in periods when they appear to be fully valued (or slightly overvalued)."
With this in mind could you please give a list of canadian high-quality compounders that you would recommend initiating a position in and holding through thick and thin.
Could you please include their sector designation and yield.
I am interested and low yield ones for a non registered account but would also like to see your higher yield ones too.
Thanks

Q: I would like to build a position in the industrial services sub-sector. Could you identify your favs [CAD/US] for 3-5 year hold [I have named a few, but look to you for those in which you have the most conviction] and rank according to (a) safety in a recession and (b) compounders for long-term growth. What makes them stand out?
Thank you..

Q: I identified 9 companies that out performed the TSX 60 plus 3 energy companies that I believe have a bright future. All 12 failed the MACD. 5 are trading at double digit discounts to their 52 week highs; dsg,shop,l,tou and cve. P/E range from 85 to 6 etc, etc. Please pick your diversified top 6 for a 5 year hold, with consistent profitability, no crazy volatility and suggest a great entry price. Thank you

Q: Like CSU please suggest 10 US and Canadian mix which can be no need to watch every day,Loosers lately makes hard to sleep at night. Such as NVEI,TSU,ATZ.CTS

Q: Why the big move today?

Thanks

Q: Hello 5i team,

I sold "CAE" and made some money to find next growth name. Could you please suggest one? I already have "STN" and "CP" in my portfolio for your information. Your suggestion doesn’t have to be in the same sector though, I am looking for the best rewarding one as of today for 3-5 years holding. Thanks.

Q: My son is interested in investing $30k in TFSA in four canadian dividend paying stocks with some growth, in different sectors. Which stocks would you purchase today? Thanks very much

Q: Can you please recommend a few companies for a TFSA that have good growth potential with limited downside risk.
Thanks

Q: I hold EQB in my income portion of the total portfolio. Where as 5iR allocates EQB to the Growth Portfolio which I don't have as a portion of my total portfolio. After reading the recent flash report of EQB, I'm inclined to now hold it in my Balance portion of the total portfolio. What do say you about this EQB transfer in my portfolio portions??? Also, I hold TRI that is now in the income portfolio. What do you say about transferring it to the Balance portion of the overall portfolio??? Thanks for the guidance......as I like to hold 20% in Income, 40% in Balance that is all Cdn and 40% in US stocks with more of a stronger tilt to growth that includes technology and healthcare........Tom 

Q: Hello 5i, I have read in the June edition of Canadian Money Saver that Thomson Reuters plans special distribution of US $4.67 per share. Do you know more about this, and the approximate date? Thank you

Q: IF STARTING A NEW POSITION, $ATD.B or $TRI.

Q: Any idea why the $7 drop on TRI on Friday?

Sheldon

Q: Could you give some suggestions for Canadian companies with a growth profile that pay a div you would hold in a TSFA.

Thanks

Q: Morning 5i Team,
I have held TRI since early 2020 and have since almost doubled my investment. I am thinking of taking some profits on TRI and invest the proceeds on something else. Would you agree with this move? And can you suggest a stock(s) to put the proceeds in regardless of sectors.
Thanks,
H
