Q: My wife's non-registered Canadian stock fund is invested conservatively, primarily for income. However RY now exceeds 16% of the assets. I know this far exceeds your recommended level for any one holding, but selling some shares will generate very substantial capital gains. What is your advice in this situation? Thank you.

Q: Please update you opinion on Fierra. I Have held it since 2020. I am underwater if you look at the share price alone. However, with the dividend my return on investment is positive. The last and the latest reports are not good. Do you see anything that might change this slide? Or should I jump ship now?
