Q: I would like to increase my stock weight in technologies. I only currently have a 1,5% in BB and 2,5% in PHO. I have a 5% cash position in my TFSA to invest with a long-term growth (10years+) horizon. What tech company would you recommend for a new position?
Thank you,

Q: My Consumer-Cyclical sector is 6% too high and Technology sector is 2% too low.

So need to sell one of (AW.UN, BPF.UN, BYD.UN, CCL.B, CGX, ECI), each with ~ 2% position. Hard to sell any of these tried-true 'favourites' -but trying to take the emotional side out of the decision, and be disciplined. So, I think I should sell CGX because it has been flat for 2 years and I don't expect much upside. Can you provide your an order of selling preference?

And I need to add to these existing Technology Sector holdings (CSU, ENGH, KXS, MDA, PUR, SHOP). Thinking (OTEX, ITC) or more of existing ones.

57 year-old with a Growth & Sector & Dividend oriented portfolio.

As always, thank you for your wise guidance.

CSU, CCL, MDA, ECI, ENGH, BYD, OTEX, SHOP, AW, BPF, PUR, ITC

- Also the former CEO and current board member Lucas Skoczkowski sold well over 2 million shares in a black out period . Will this create any negative scenario for the company
Thanks

Q: Just joined and will be slowly adopting your balanced equity model portfolio.

I am heavily overweight in financial ( 25%) and energy ( 19%) and have very low exposure to tech ( 2%). Which 1 or 2 of the tech stocks currently in your portfolio/research would be best to add at this point in time. I will probably drop each by about 5% to get 10% into the tech stocks you suggest as a first move.
