Q: Hello Peter, Ryan, and Team

I need to raise some cash and would like to know how you would rank these stocks from "sell first" to "sell last":

BLX 1.07%
BNS 1.9%
KXS 1.35%
NFI 0.81%
PBH 1.7%
SIS 2.22%
SYZ 0.94%
TFII 0.58%

I am underwater on all of these. The number following each symbol is the stock's weighting.

Thanks for your assistance.

Q: My portfolio is light in consumer non-cyclicals. Last week I was considering the purchase of NWC for dividend in my non registered account. With the recent earnings release and drop in price is this a good entry point or should I move on?

Would PBH be a better choice? Or is there a better non-financial dividend payer to add to my portfolio?

Thank you

Stephen

Q: Hello Peter, Ryan and Team,

I have been plucking the weeds and watering the flowers. These three are my biggest losers in a taxable account down between 20% to 30% and haven't been rallying as the others. Can you make the case for both buying and selling each of these? Thank you,

Wes

Q: Purchased this back in June 2018 for my RRSP account for some "growth" with a 2% position. Now down 22% - at what point does one say that's enough and move. Can you suggest a possible replacement a little less volatile.
thanks

Q: I want to add a consumer staple to my portfolio, can you recommend a few that might be recession proof? I currently only have consumer discretionary and am wondering if I should dump a few and add a staple instead? In consumer stocks I currently hold PBH, A&W, TSGI and STZ. Would you consider all of those discretionary?
