Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I am a buy-and-hold total return value investor. I have a concentrated portfolio of eleven stocks. I don't worry about asset diversification. I hold FFH and BN in the financial space right now, but I'm considering selling BN and replacing it with a Canadian bank (not an ETF). What do you think of that plan? Which Canadian bank would you think would best fit my strategy? Could you please list three banks, in order of preference?

Thanks.

Q: is there any reason to expect meaningful growth in TD during the next year or two? I have a full position and I think the yield is down and the stock is getting tired. I am thinking of selling some (e.g. 20%) shares or selling covered calls in some at about 135/share.. What do you think of the stock going forward for the next two years?

Q: Q3/25 reported in November, EPS declined 26% vs. Q3/24. Can you go over the Q in more detail and advise whether fundamentals have changed. I am a holder of this company and had been thinking of adding since it has declined from its high of $134 in August. Would you be comfortable adding or do you see more attractive financial names? Thank you.

Q: I just noticed the jump in these shares over the past 3 days and thought there may have been news out on earnings but see that the last earnings release was Nov 6. Checking all the news sources I have access to has yielded nothing. Thought I would check with our ears to the street people, (that's you), and see if you have heard anything.
