Q: Thank you for providing such an unparalleled service. Your cost increases are minimal.

My question is about diversification in my RRSP which consists of mostly high quality growth stocks (GOOGL, VISA, NIKE, ACN, NVIDIA, etc.) I am however, under-represented in Canadian stocks which include BAM, SHOPIFY, IFC, FSV, & BIP.UN. My goal is to build up my Canadian portfolio in this RSP.

I am well represented in Tech, Consumers, disc, & health care with my US holdings. Can you recommend 10 Canadian stocks that I could add for the long term to balance out my portfolio? I am deficient in financial, materials & industrials. Or to apply the Occam's razor, should I just buy and accumulate XIC over time.

Many thanks

Q: Hi Guys - looking at adding to my financials position. I currently hold ~2.5% in each of TD and BNS. With the forecast estimates of improved earnings, increased dividends/buybacks, etc... which of the "Big 5+EQB+LB" would you find the most attractive, both in terms of capital growth and dividend increases (i.e., total growth). Thank you!

Q: On a 2 year horizon, (this account must close in 2 years) which has the more chances to do better? We would sell ENGH to harvest tax loss and buy TOI if the perspective in such a short time is favorable.
Thank you for your enlightening advise.

Q: Concerns me when a position reports good numbers in a strong market but the stock doesnt react. Recent examples are DOO and TCL.A A guest on BNN mentioned DOO has presold the complete manufacturing run of 2022 Ski Doo's. With this in mind earnings should be stellar this year but going foward the bar is set very high for comparisons. I've trimmed DOO once and still have a 6% weighting after having it more than double since the first purchase. Considering exiting the position altogether. Thoughts on both companies and my theory, thanks.
