Q: Hi There,
I am currently looking at adding one US stock to my RRSP account. I currently have JPM, VTI and IWO in the account. Of the above listed stocks or any others you feel would be a better fit, which would you recommend? Timeframe is 10 plus years.
Thank You,

Q: One of my largest holdings in my RRSP is Blackstone L.P. Today they announced they are converting to a Corporate structure as at 7.1.19. It appears the market likes it. What effect will this have on the dividends (ie: yield & taxes), the SP now and going forward in your estimation? Should I buy more (to a reasonable % of course), sell or hold?

Q: I know the QCOM is a healthy company and is well positioned technologically .
With look at P/E and P/B , I am just wondering if it is time to sell and deploy the funds elsewhere. It has been a rocky HOLD, and I am finally in the black on the name .
Now I am down on NVDA ( who would have thought ) .
These names have not been kind to me ... I expect risk, but I understand that these are the best companies in their sectors ( or do you recommend others ? ). Thanks again ,
Go Jets

Q: Hi, thank you for the article on international stocks and the portfolio analytics.
I am now trying to decrease my Canadian home bias (40% to 25%) by increasing my international exposure (20% to 35%) and maintaining my US at 40%. My wife and I own XWD, VE and XEF in our TFSAs. I was thinking of selling XWD and adding VEE or VWO (RRSP) and/or VDU or VEA (RRSP). The switch to RRSP additions is to benefit from US withholding tax exemption.

Could I have your thoughts on the above changes. Is there too much overlap in owning all four ETFs? Could I simplify to one, two or three?

Thank you.

Q: Yesterday you recommended this company as one of your top midcap industrials in the US. I'm trying to get a handle on why. Not just for this company but as a way of deciding among various factors in making purchases. For example, the Stockcalc report on it says it's 21.6% overvalued. Thompson Reuters report rates it a 4/10. It has a P/E of 41 with a 7% growth rate. On the other hand, this stock has risen 8% in the last week and 15% in the last month so clearly a number of people think it has very good prospects. Why?
