Q: Morning, I currently do not have a REIT in my portfolio but also do not have much for US exposure other than a couple of Indexed and Divident ETF's. I am looking for a nice yield with modest growth. What do you know of NNN? Ido you have something else you are more comfortable with?

Q: Hey guys, I have way too many stocks in my portfolio and I am trying to consolidate. I have wba and pfe with +20 gains on both however they only account for 1% (each) of my portfolio. Which one should I sell to buy a larger position into the other one or sell both and purchase another u.s. health care company which you recommend. (Medium risk with dividends similar to pfe and wba)
Take care,
Jim

Q: What is your outlook on US financials as a sector? I hold VFH, I am up 46% but some of that is because I bought in when Canadian dollar was stonger. I am considering cashing in my gains and reinvesting in a Canadian dividend EFT. Thoughts?
Thanks

Q: This is a US company and outside your focus but I wonder if you could give me your overall take on McKession and its pospects for a growing dividend. It seems to me that it might be a good way to round out a portfolio sector and help hit my US diversification goals at the same time.
Thank you !

Q: Hi Peter,
I hold shares of Tidewater which continue to slide. Is there long term concern other than the price of oil. I am happy to hold and maybe add if they are not at risk of bankruptcy and it's expected it will come back when the price starts to rise. Appreciate any comments or advice. thank you. Tulio

Q: Hi,

I came across the U.S company Sanderson Farms in a recent issue of Moneysense. I am thinking of taking a small position in it (About 1% of my portfolio). The valuation on it seems very cheap, and the company seems to be profitable and cash flow positive. What are the main risks with this name (Leaving aside currency risk). Do you agree that the valuation (P/E) is very cheap. If so, why is that?

Q: The PowerShares BuyBack Achievers Portfolio (Fund) is based on the NASDAQ US BuyBack Achievers Index (Index). This etf has done well over 3 years and 5 years, compared to the S&P 500 Index. What do you think of this concept?

Q: Just wanted to get your thoughts on Micron (mu) after their latest results. As it is a high beta stock I have a very small portion of it in my portfolio (less than half a percent).
I have owned it for less than a year and I am about even in it (with the U.S. dollar exchange).
Given their lower future earnings estimate I was considering getting out of it and rotating into a different high beta Canadian stock. If so, I was considering PHM or if you could recommend something else.
Thanks!

Q: I understand this Co. is involved in gene cell engineering, mainly in Cancer research.It is the company that has made an offer to purchase the Summerland Research company that pioneered the Artic Apple.The stock itself appears to be volatile and I know that you do not cover US stocks per se, but it appeared on BNN 10 days ago in a segment of new and innovative companies on the horizon? I wonder if you are aware of this company and could provide any further information on it?Thank you. I am "hooked" on your site.Thank you.

Q: Hello Peter and group: Would like your opinion on Capital One Financial. I used to think of this company (not sure why) as somehow a little "tainted" but see that it is now on S&P's "five star" list. Thanks, Don
