Q: Hello
I am looking at Canadian non-cyclical segment stocks.

What are your thoughts on TPX.B and SAP?
Can you also comment on their projected growth for 2018?

I currently own some Premium Brand, Aliment Couch Tard, Coke, and Mondalez.

Am I over diversifying by adding two more names to my Non-Cyclical segment in your view?

Thank you!
Stephane

Q: I'm thinking of moving on here and an wondering what you might replace it with at today's prices. I also own MG and have done very well so don't need to stay in the auto parts industry. I'm a little light on industrials and materials so either sector would be fine. Thanks again for your valuable service!

Q: With XTC's growth slowing down and NFI's pullback, I am thinking of selling XTC and buying the equivalent value ( 4% of a balanced portfolio ) of NFI. I have a gain of 60% having owned XTC for 5 years. I am interested in dividend growth and stability in the business.
What are your thoughts about the prospects of these two companies 5 years out?
Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i,
From time to time a well performing company misses on earnings estimates in a quarter but it does not necessarily mean that its longer term good performance and potential growth will slow.
What was the cause of the poor earnings per share result. Was the reasons for this miss merely a temporary hiccup or perhaps a longer term issue. What conclusion should one draw from this quarter's results? Are the views about this company change from your September report? Is the growth by acquisition theme and potential remain intact. What can we expect to see from the company in the next 6 and 12 months. Should I continue to hold or sell at this time.

Thanks for your excellent insights.

Q: Hi 5i,
We (senior investors and drawing from portfolios) have $173,000 in 2 TFSA accounts. We have $32,000 cash available in these accounts. Accounts currently hold AC, KXS, NFI, PHO, SIS, SHOP, and fixed income XBB and XHY. What would you suggest I look at to add to this mix at this time for long term holds. No cash is drawn from either TFSA .
Best Regards,
Ted

Q: Under your old format I had an alert and a favourite list. How do I access them under the new format, if they are still available?
I read on November 30th on answering a question that you also provide charts. How do you access them?
I just cancelled a $650.00 newsletter a great deal of money more than yours and it was no where near as good as yours. I am happy to have you guys behind me. Thanks. Dennis

Q: Hello,
I was reviewing the data available via TD Waterhouse including Thomson Reuters reports, and compared revenue and net income growth in the past 2 years of Amazon, vs Alibaba vs JD.com (all somewhat in the same industry but latter 2 in China).
My read is Alibaba and JD.com have significantly higher growth in both metrics than Amazon.
Would appreciate your review please and thanks.
