Q: Can I get your assessment of this company in light of cannacord's recent endorsement as a promising stock for this year (being mindful that it's price jump today has breached the analysts' target price for the year) . Financial Post also noted that iAnthus' inclusion on the upcoming mjna growers index etf may impact its performance to the upside. Your valued thoughts pls

Q: Multiple questions:
According to my information 92 percent of Fortis’s revenue is from regulated sources. As such would increases in interest rates only effect the company in the short run as the increases in interest expense would eventually be passed on to the consumer when changes in the rate base are applied for by the company and granted by the regulators? This ignores the maturity date of the company’s debt and the fact that the rate base increase granted may be less than that applied for.
Not in your area of expertise but I would appreciate your opinion on state owned China Mobile (CHL: US) and Omega Healthcare (OHI: US) as to their suitability from a risk perspective for an income oriented retiree.
Thank you for considering these questions.

Q: I've held this stock through two seemingly disappointing quarters , and am now down 13%. Do you still have faith in this company? It's lagging the sector big time. Was thinking of putting the money into Facebook on the dip with the proceeds. Please advise
Thank you

Q: I am having a hard time deciding if I should add to my financials with individual stocks or buy an ETF. XLF and MTUM have holdings that I already own and am ok with adding to these via the ETF and they also hold BAC and JPM which I do not own. Can you please give me your opinion. Sectors and weightings are fine. Thank you.

Q: Hi there,

I am looking to add a company in transportation to my portfolio. On all metrics TFII seems cheaper on a valuation basis than the others. Any reasons you would prefer my other options and why?

Q: I'm thinking about increasing my US exposure and buying VOO in my RRSP. I don't need the money for at least 10 years...
When to buy is always a bit perplexing...with the US markets at all time highs one would think that this is not a great time to be buying and it might be smarter to wait for an inevitable correction.
But at the same time, with the tax cuts that have recently gone through down south, as well as the overall improvement in the business environment, I can't see how that isn't going to drive the markets even higher.
Thoughts?

Q: Andrew McCreath had a banker on his Friday show that made a good case for buy outs coming this year in US banking industry just not the very large banks. The large banks would not be allowed to merge/takeover more banks because of regulatory concerns.
Could you meanttion some of the stronger mid size US banks that would be good candidates for take over and their related dividend as he mentioned that big dividend increases are on the way.
