Q: Good afternoon - I’m overweight in big tech in my TFSA and am planning to do some rebalancing. I’m looking for some non-tech suggestions please. Either US or Canada are fine.

Thanks!

Q: Did not have an opportunity to hear what ECN had to say about their earnings and possible sale of the company. Was there any indication of what direction the strategic review might take and possible timing of any announcement.. Secondly if a takeout does not occur is there anything in terms of future guidance that would provide support for the shares around current levels? Current results appear rather tepid and my concern is that shares could tank without positive news from the strategic review. What is your sense as to what direction the strategic review might take?

Q: Since AI become news I have been following with interest, however a little reluctant to put my feet into the water, as I am thinking this could be another bubble.
I have reviewed all question on AI companies, and wonder if 5i is going to consider an AI stock for the growth portfolio.
I did own Microsoft, and Apple however sold when the market crashed 2 years ago..
I look forward to reviewing your answer.
Thanks

Russ Healy was on BNN saying net overall asset value continues to drop in the last 5 year's and i agree with him as my performance is negative (down 6% in the last 5 years, (this is excluding the dividend . Kindly explain how you continue to recommend this stock as it clearly is a loser in value the dividend is its only advantage... would TRP not be a better risk return or even Fortis / one of the pipes for that matter Thanks for your help with this . Lastly what is your top 3 picks in the health care sector

Q: TMX is coming online in less than a year and Enbridge expects a drop in shipping volumes so that its Mainline is running at 95%. I see that you are still recommending Enbridge, but do I need to be worried about this? Enbridge has lots of debt and its free cash flow does not cover its dividend. If their operating cash flow drops from the loss in volume, could that not affect the dividend? On the other hand, it also has numerous projects underway, so maybe those will compensate for the loss? Thanks.

Q: Hi,
I'm trying to figure out why WSP's price seems to keep taking larger than expected dips after having good earnings, a long list of projects and is what appears to be a fundamentally sound company. Since the large sale back in April, it hasn't seemed to have regained solid footing from a technical aspect, and the momentum is slowing, leaving me to wonder if it is time to lock in what are fairly substantial profits? This is when I question whether or not a company's fundamentals have much effect when 'Wall St' loses interest in an equity.
