Q: Planning to increase my stock portfolio with about 8% of SIS and 11% of CSH.UN
Would they be good stocks to add for longer term, conservative and dividend holding?
If you would recommend the stocks then go with the 8% & 11% split or would you suggest a 50/50 split.
Thanks, John

Q: Hi Team - XTC has been a frustrating stock. It's a half billion dollar company with a low valuation, but it's price has languished below 12 dollars. Do you have any insight into why it's such a thin trader, and why there's resistance to moving to a higher valuation? The conspiracy theorist in me thinks that it's pretty easy to manipulate a stock with such low volume.

Thanks for your long term and very valued service!

Q: I recently took a half position in TPK in the low 6's. I'm hoping for growth plus a solid dividend.
Today they reported earnings. Sounds like a strong Q4 helped salvage the year.
I'm curious on your thoughts given their recent report.
Is this a good long term hold? (5+)
Is the dividend safe/could it grow?
What is the payout ratio?
Should I add to my position at these levels or wait?
Thanks!

Q: I have accounts at multiple CDIC insured lenders. One of them is Oaken Financial which is composed of CDIC insured Home Bank and Home Trust. I'm concerned about the ongoing problems with parent Home Capital; one thing after another. What's your best estimate of the likelihood of a bankruptcy, serious financial issue etc.with Home Capital which would trigger defaults at the subsidiaries so that I would be dealing with the CDIC regarding my GICs. Thanks
