Q: I bought Hershey in my RRSP in mid-2024. While mostly known for chocolate, the company has been diversifying into non-chocolatey snacks. However, the stock price remains down due to high cocoa prices. Would you be content to hold Hershey and collect the dividend until cocoa prices drop? Would you have some other suggestions? I tend to go for boring US dividend payers that also have some growth potential in my RRSP. My top holdings right now are MSFT, COST, MA, BIP.UN, ENB, and O. I also hold VOO as an underlying holding. Thank you.

Q: Good Morning,

Assuming the fundamentals don't deteriorate, at what price range would you start to get interested in CELH again and watch for the potential of a recovery?

I was lucky enough to be playing with house money in this decline and have since exited, so I'm just observing the stock at the moment.

Thank you.
