Q: I have $35,000 total room in our TFSA for my wife and myself, 71 years of age. Together we have 60 equities in our Income portfolios dividend long term investing with a 10 year horizon mostly following the 5i Income portfolio. Not wanting to add new equities should I top to ENB, BCE, UTX. Loblaw, NWC, and SPB to get each up to about 2% weight or follow another venue that you may suggest?
I also have a five year GIC ladder in place, cash resource, and defined pension. I feel that with XGD at 1.82% weight I do not need to add to it.
Thank you
Stanley

Q: LNR is obtaining $100 mln in grants from federal and provincial govs. What caught my attention was this : "It also said the grants will support a Linamar innovation centre focused on technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning and collaborative robotics". Do you have any insights beyond this press release on what LNR is planing to do or what it has done so far in this area? How do they compare to Magna in this area?

Q: Hi,

I have 2 questions:

1) What is your opinion on Apple and Amazon's current stock price? Is it too overvalued (to buy)?

2) What do you think the impact of the new $14 minimum wage in Ontario will be on the food industry, particularly, on Premium Brand Holdings?

Thank you

Q: Looking for an entry point for a purchase of Aurora Cannabis (intending to likely exit before July, or in the event of a Constellation-style buy-in). What would your $ buy point potentially be, in light of the Cannimed situation. And where could you see this stock by July considering the current frenzy around this industry

Q: Hello Peter,

I currently have a greater than full position in CP and have been hesitant to trim it back given how well the stock has been doing. However, I'm concerned about how the situation with Nafta will affect the stock. Can you provide insight into how you think this or any other factors might impact the stock price in the near and long term? Many thanks!

Q: My question from yesterday must be lost due to time out. Hardwood Distribution is off its 52 weeks highs, due to soft results, last quarter and possible short term impact on its China imports (11%) of its sales as a result of 200% anti-dumping import levy. Company's last NR did say that it has been positioning for past 12 months to replace the sources. I am planning to take a small position in the company to gain a stable name exposure to residential construction sector ( with large US exposure). HWD also has a solid dividend record. What are your thoughts on the company and its current valuation ? Thanks

Q: If Nafta gets ripped up, the auto industry in North America stands to be severely disrupted. In the short term I expect many will get hurt. I'm thinking I should be proactive and sell-off Magna now while it is still near its top. But what to replace it with? Does TB (Toronto Dominion BanK) stand to show a major growth spurt once its new AI acquisition is in place and providing heretofor unavilable information on its clients? I hope your 2018 is as good as 2017 was.
