Q: Hello:

Doing a little cleanup and wondering if NA, BCE, SJR.B or HPQ are worth holding. For sure I have plenty of Canadian financial exposure without NA. I also hold Telus but wondering about dropping Shaw and/or BCE. HP seems to be on the upswing with COVID but is it a long-term keeper?

And then, if you think some can go, what might I substitute? NVDA for HPQ? Would US telcom companies be attractive?

These are held in RRSP, 20 year horizon.

Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Can I get your thoughts on BBU? It seems outrageously cheap at only $3bil market cap when Westinghouse is producing $650mil in Ebitda and the company earned $1.3bil in ebitda in 2020. The portfolio of businesses looks solid, with high growth potential on a few (Clarios and BRK stick out to me). Am I missing something? Thanks for all you do.

Q: Bill Gates sold $370,000,000 worth of CNR shares recently. Are there any negative developments in your view with respect to this company? As well, I noted that two brokers have lowered their targets from $165 to $160 and from $155 to $139 respectively.
I will appreciate your comments with respect to CNR going forward. Is it a hold, sell or add to existing position?
Thanks

Q: I am looking to add a consumer staples stock to my portfolio as I currently own none. Could you please give me your opinion of PBH and L? I see Loblaw as more of a value play and PBH as growing more over the next 2 years. I am concerned over the difference in valuations between the two companies but would like some growth. The dividends are similar for both. Is one riskier over the other? Should I buy one over the other or perhaps buy both? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,

First of all, thanks for your advise to help me understand more for the US & Canadian stock markets. I have a feeling that the US market will end the over 10 years bull market soon and bear market will come in. Due to the issue of GME, BB, NOK, and AMC showing many "NEW" investors involve the US and Canadian market (because of the BB), specially the Reddit social media investor forums is not healthy. I guess the Canadian market may also affected, due to the BB issue. Just in case the bear market will come, what the above stocks need to be sold to play safe. I am thinking to sell KXS, LSPD, and NVEI, those stock prices may not be survival during the big drop in coming. Do you have the same feeling that the bear market will come? Can you please rank the above stocks able to survival during the bear market and please suggest to take off any just in case the worst worst things really happen.
