Q: Would you please rank the 3 stocks in order of total return going forward. IFC has the best 10year return, but not so more recently. I currently own IFC and I am concerned about the effects of global warming on future performance. I am leaning toward MFC because of its recovered mojo. I sense that MFC is the most conservative play in the group. Thank you

Q: MFC has just recently surpassed its previous peak in 2007 around $44. This was a long time coming, but it is struggling to stay above this value. Normally I feel that it is a good sign when a company that breaks through a previous high. Can I have your thoughts on MFC at this time, and why it may be a different company than it was 15 years ago.

Q: In my RRif I own Key & PPl, high yielding stocks to help cover forced withdrawals.
They declined on Friday despite a drop in bond yields.
So you think the decline was due to a drop in Wti?
Trump intends to increase tariffs which could result in higher interest rates due to inflation and his energy policy could lead to lower oil prices.
As a result of the above should I reduce key & Ppl & invest the proceeds into companies that will benefit from higher interest rates such as Mfc & Slf
