Q: Hi 5i.
Earlier in the year, my investment group decided to follow the theme of military and defense stocks, with the Russia/Ukraine war already well underway. We came up with a few smaller specialty companies that we thought might benefit from restocking arms and ammunition, war logistics, etc. Each has had a decent run so far this year. Wondering if you could provide a quick assessment of these companies and if you have any other ideas related to this theme. Also, what are your favourite large cap names in this space and maybe an ETF?
Thanks!

Q: I'm interested in investing in a basket of companies that you think have the ability to increase their dividends even in a recessionary environment. Could you please send me some of your favourite ETF's that would give me exposure to these kinds of companies. If possible could you suggest ones that give me the necessary exposure to:
Canadian companies
American companies
International companies.
Thanks for your appreciated support.

Q: MTY or QSR: which best buy? I am thinking mild recession - maybe better price of entry later? I do not own any stocks in this group. Not sure I need to own? Not big dividend growers which is my mantra. Too many good blue chips avai8lable that are good dividend growers.
