Q: Hi,

In light of the Donald's proposed 54 billion dollar budget to increase defence spending, including new aircraft carriers,

Would you suggest buying the rumour ?

From what I gather, chances are this will not pass in its current incarnation.

And if you were inclined to beef up defence in your portfolio, what stocks, mid to large caps would be your preference for a basket of stocks ( I prefer to avoid sector ETFs). Can you rank them ?

Thank you,

Karim

Secondly, a suggested CDN ETF with US large cap/financial exposure that as pays a 3+ % div.

Q: I have a small position in MU ... less than 1%.
It's up about 50% since I purchased about 8 months ago.
I'm concerned that as semiconductor prices are increasing, there may be increased production from other competitors and that the market may become oversupplied.
Should I hold on or is the stock becoming long in the tooth .. in which case should I sell?
