Q: Hi, I had a great 2020 investment wise, thanks, great advice.
In my TFSA I have STC- PLC - CCL.B that I will add to. I also have $room for two or three additional stock to compliment them for diversity, could you suggest sometime for a growth but also conservative investor.
Also would you be ok with a small amount(play money) for QBTC.U or would you stay clear?
Thanks

Q: I was surprised to see you quote ENB as one of your top Canadian dividend picks in a recent question.

I am troubled by the "low" increase in dividend growth this past quarter. Please help me interpret this from a numbers (earnings, cash flow, future growth) point of view that would reassure me that it deserves to be amongst your top Canadian dividend picks.

thanks

Ernie

Q: Would you recommend ATCO for a 3 to 5 year hold or would Fortis or Emera be a better choice? Also, why has ATCO gone down so much in the past 6 months.

Thank-you.

Q: Hi,
No rush for this question.
Could you please recommend some stocks to build a portfolio for the Smith Manoeuvre.
2/3 would be in an unregistered account and 1/3 in a TFSA?
I'm looking for about 15 stocks (or more) in order of your preferred ranking of what to buy first. Also, which of the ones suggested would be preferable in a TFSA?
Please deduct as many credits as you see fit.
Thanks

Q: Happy New Year to the great team at 5iResearch and thank you for the great advice I have received from you over the years. It has been very profitable. I have a reasonably well balanced portfolio with a small amount of AQN ( ~0.5%) but no PBH. I am considering selling AQN and buying some PBH as I am relatively low in Consumer defensives. Which of the 2 companies do you prefer?
