Q: Hi there, a couple weeks ago I asked if you were to build a US portfolio to replicate the BEPORT using CDRs, which stocks would you use. Thank you for the great guidance. Recently there has been 10 new CDRs added. Would you make any changed to your original list from a couple weeks ago based on the new CDRs below?
Airbnb CDR (CAD Hedged) – ABNB
Applied Materials CDR (CAD Hedged) – AMAT
Arista Networks CDR (CAD Hedged) – ANET
Blackstone CDR (CAD Hedged) – BX
Chipotle CDR (CAD Hedged) – CMGS
Merck CDR (CAD Hedged) – MRK
Occidental Petroleum CDR (CAD Hedged) – OXY
Oracle CDR (CAD Hedged) – ORAC
Palantir CDR (CAD Hedged) – PLTR
Wells Fargo CDR (CAD Hedged) – WFCS
For reference, this was your previous answers:
"We are not going to allocate via sector nor weightings here, but some of our favourite CDRs would be: BRK.B, ISRG, BKNG, JPM, RTX, GOOG, AMZN, MSFT, NVDA, LLY, CVX, COST, CRWD, UNH, PG, UBER, XOM, V"
Thanks!

We think the new list is fine, but would see no need for replacements here from the original set...
