Q: Hello 5i Team

My wife and I are looking at our investments, and although we rode the market right down with the majority of people, we are not looking to spend anything/withdraw any time soon. We are young professionals in our mid thirties with two young kids, so lots of time for our RRSPs/TFSAs to bounce back.

Do you think this is a good time to leverage to get further into the market? I'm thinking that we can borrow $50k on a HELOC and get some solid stocks at a steal. Earn some dividends and get some quick capital appreciation, with the expectation of selling off and recovering the cash by the end of the year.

Looking at perhaps going 1/3 each to things like CAE, RUS, and RBC. I'm new to making my own decisions on investments. Is this an absurd idea? Let me know if I'm crazy. I see all my friends jumping in at the moment and the temptation is high.

Q: With oil Storage at a premium , and contango in the futures market
is relatively strong. the value of these oil tanker companies is fairly cheap and they have been able to increase their oil storage price.
This seems to me setting up for some very profitable earnings .
If you agree which companies would you prefer in this situation ?
Thanks

Q: Hi there,

There are some high quality names that have not been beat down in the downturn (ie: KXS, DSG, CSU etc) which have not participated as much in the rebound, which makes sense - but if someone was looking for high quality names that have been beat down that would present a good entry point and a great opportunity at recovering and outperforming in a rebound, what would you recommend looking at?

Thanks!

Q: To Peter's question regarding exchanging Brookfield Infrastructure Partners Exchange LP units to BIP.UN:

I got info from BIP investors relations late last year:

1. LP units are exchangeable to BIP.UN 1:1 for 7 years,
2. The exchange is deemed disposition, i.e. taxable on gain
3. The exchange is no fee, can be done by brokerages

I emailed BIP investor's relations couple of times in the past, they are quite responsive and detail in their replies.

Hope this helps.
