Q: I have a half position in NWL, was waiting for results before adding the other half. They missed earnings and the stock is being punished today, down 25%. Do you think this is overdone and a good opportunity to add or is there something I'm missing and I should stay away? Greatly appreciate your service, thank you.

Q: Can you please comment on today's earnings release ? How does a blue chip, consumer staples company fall 25% in one day?
What is your outlook for the stock?
I hold a 2.5 % position (3.5% before today). I'm a patient investor. What do you suggest I do?
Thank you for your much appreciated advice.

Q: After reading why dividends are the most stable form of total returns, which ETF would be considered a “dividend aristocrat” in the US? I already own VYM high dividend yield, VGH dividend appreciation and VHT health care. I would replace or add to current etf. Thank you Kim

Q: Hello Peter, I want to have a reasonable allocation to US industrials, including companies like UTX and Texas Instruments, those in the defence sector, etc. I'd like to do this via a well-priced ETF but am a bit lost in the growing ETF jungle. I already have small 2% positions in IWO and QQQ. To best gain exposure to the US industrial sector (including industrial technology stocks that are more economically sensitive), would you suggest I just add to these two ETFs, or can you suggest a better or more targeted one? (I do have a preference for Vanguard as a company, but that's not essential.) Thanks in advance!

Q: I intend to reduce my equity holdings for two reasons – I need to free up some cash for other projects and, secondly, I am concerned about the current risk in the equity markets and want to discharge an investment loan I have against my house. I am happy with the securities I own and their % in the portfolio. Consequently, my plan is to generally reduce across the board.

I own both ENB and ENF. Should I sell one and keep the other or reduce both?

I also own ESP. It has been a wild ride and I am presently down about 25%. What is your outlook on this stock over the next couple of years? Given my plans for portfolio restructuring should I sell and book the loss or continue to hold?

In the US portion of my portfolio I own GOOGL, AMZN and FB among others. If the market enters a severe correction do you see these as more risky than the US market in general?
