Q: Hi there,

Can you give me a 1 (low)-10 (high) ranking on these as to which you BUY/ADD right now for a 3-5 year horizon?

I know you’re not big fans of averaging down but are there any of these that you’d look at if you bought at higher prices?


Thanks.

Q: FEEDBACK Re Timelines for answering questions.

I have been a happy 5i’er almost since Day 1. Lucky me. A very rewarding experience…. perfect , maybe not - but I haven’t found a better service or something at lower price for 5i services.

Over the years and given all the questions I have asked, my recollection is that having to wait longer than 36 hours has been amazingly rare. And none of my questions have ever been lost.

Maybe I am just lucky …but my experience has so positive. Thank you.

So call me Happy Camper.

Q: Just wondering if any other 5i folks that deal with BMO are having issues with the transaction to Sunoco. I did not receive the $44 share and no cash, only some shares of Sunoco worth 93k cad. They redeemed 5000 shares of PKI

Q: As a snowbird I am looking for an investment vehicle with high income paid in USD and have identified these two. I can handle some risk and a degree of leverage but it is not required. Are these two appropriate ; which would you recommend ; are there others I should look at ? Is their unit price quoted in CDN or US dollars ?
Thanks. Derek.

Q: Good morning 5i
In a recent very popular question, judging by the up votes, you gave a number of equities that you would recommend for a TFSA:
SHOP, TRI, BN, GLXY, SLF, AEM, PNG, EIF, CLS, TD

Like many others, i am always interested in tweaking my TFSA and so I wondered about your answer. Tri, BN, SLF and TD seem to me solid, 10 star companies. But i wondered about putting Shop, Cls, glxy, pyng etc into this account. To my mind they don’t seem any where near the blue chip quality of the previous mentioned stocks. I know that to make money in a TFSA that you have to take some risk. But are these too risky for such an important account ?

I am not saying that they shouldn’t be in there. But, perhaps I am just nervous because they are relatively new and unproven over a long period.
So, i would be interested in hearing what level of confidence you would have in them. And related to that, what weight you would give them?

Could you also add HOOD to the mix and your level of confidence in a TFSA
Thanks for this great service
