Q: I hold TD and BNS, and want to add more of the bank with the best current value. Can you please tell me which of the 2 banks represents the better value? Would appreciate knowing what metrics you use to determine bank stock value. EV values in the minus range make it confusing.
Thanks!

Q: Your thoughts on MKP’s latest results and the 8% div yield.. The results are good but not quite as good as last year. Why would they declare a special dividend verses just raising their quarterly dividend?
Thanks

Q: VB on a bit of a tear the last few months. I’m at 1/2 position and can’t decide whether to hold for overall financial sector diversification (also hold BNS, TD, SUnlife, MFC) or sell and add to one or all four of these large caps. Given VB’s valuation has now caught up to the sector, my thinking is it only now moves with the sector on go forward basis, so why not play that game with a safer large cap financial name? Does this make sense?
