Q: Hello:
I have been thinking of adding some ATD.B to my portfolio but have noticed the stock has been down slightly since the Trump win. Is this a bit of nervousness because of
ATD.B holdings in the U.S.?. Is the market wary of Trumps approach to anything not
American. I noticed Trans Alta Renewables & Alqonguin have reacted in a similar manner.
Thanks: Jerry

Q: I'm considering buying some GILD.My portfolio is all CDN stocks so it should benefit from some diversification and I feel US stocks may gain some strength under Trump.Obviously GILD is very cheap which reminds me a little of Concordia when I bought what I thought was an undervalued health care stock only to watch it nose dive.I also noticed a few reputable investment firms loading up over the last 2 months.My other choice was to buy PBH which is a great company but very expensive.What are your thoughts on a very cheap GILD which adds some diversification vs a fairly expensive PBH which is currently performing much better? I find i'm more of a GARP than a value investor but I appreciate getting a great stock on sale.

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: Hi Peter,
Any idea why Brookfield Infrastructure partners is going down? I was thinking of taking a full position of 5 % rather than diversifying with Stantec etc. Also, what is the reason for stocks such as Hudbay Minerals and Agrium to continue to go up and is this sustainable? I have noticed the canadian banks and insurance especially TD Bank and Manulife have gone up alot lately. Do you think it is time to trim them as they look over bought. Lastly, can you comment on why Ceapro and B2Gold are taking a hit. The big prediction was gold was going to go much higher after Trump, but all of a sudden, gold continues to experience declines. Thanks very much.

Q: Hi team

Could you comment on the recent earning by Pure Industrial REIT AAR.UN. I would think going forward their industrial exposure to the USA would be very positive for the stock if the economy takes off. The stock has fallen quite a bit since the recent earning release (I realize part of this is because all high dividend stocks have fallen). I am wondering if I should add more at these levels in a well diversified portfolio?
