Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

I'd like to deploy the funds from the recent sale of TNC. (Thank you!) I'm presently underweight in these sectors: Financial, Industrial, Information Technology, and Utilities. At this point in the economic cycle, what would be the most compelling sector? What would your top picks in this sector be if you were a buyer today? Thanks as always.

Q: Hi, can you rank the following companies as long term hold potential taking into account current valuations. I am looking to start positions in all companies I am just not sure which ones to start with.

Also, I feel like there is so much noise about moving away from oil that buying ENB long term can be a bad portfolio decision. Can you also comment on this. I am 30 and don't plan on selling anything any time soon.
