Q: My son has saved up for a bit and has a decent amount of capital for his age. He has a TFSA but his investments are varied and not the best for a long term portfolio. We recently sat down and planned out a long term portfolio that would less risky for long term holdings. Would you guys change/swap, remove or add any from this portfolio of Canadian Stocks? TD, MG, BAM.A, ENB, SLF, FSV, T, FTS, CNR and TRI. Is the market also in a comfortable position to currently make a large investment of capital? Thanks.

Q: Hi Guys
According to an update i received from Simply Wall St.
12 analysts covering this stock no longer expect the company to break even in the near future.
* They were expected to make a profit of 5.23 million in 2023.
* New consensus forecast suggests the company will make a Loss of 8.75 million in 2023
This doesn't sound very encouraging. What are your views?
Thanks Gord

Q: Hello, I have holdings that replicate the Balanced Equity portfolio with weightings being within about 1% for each stock based on the model portfolio. I have also aimed to hold a small number of stocks from the growth portfolio and currently have 1-2% for each of LSDP and WELL. I am considering adding 1-2% holding to SHOP, LSDP, WELL or adding 2% for TOI or DOL. I have a 20 year time frame.

I am leaning towards SHOP, TOI, LSDP for adding shares but am aware of my heavier weighting in the technology sector and am considering if Dolorama may be a good option at this time. With the war in the Ukraine and inflation, also based on my time frame, can you recommend which stocks you would suggest adding to of the ones listed at this time?

Q: Hi - Would you consider it a prudent time to invest in the Cdn auto parts sector (with regard to macro slowdown outweighing low inventories or vice versa)? If so, of the Canadian players, which one do you prefer and why?
