Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team, I need to top up my consumer discretionary holdings and already have close to full positions in the above stocks. Please recommend several possible purchases, or are there any of the stocks I already hold that could be overweight by a bit (excluding XTC)? Alternatively, since I don't have much US exposure, might there be a suitable ETF with decent growth? Thanks in advance.

Q: Hi, this stock was recently added to Balanced Portfolio has dropped sharply from its recent highs.

New Flyer today closed at $37.83, which is off by about 15% from its recent high of $44.87, reached just after quarterly results. When Marco Polo decided to sell about half of its stake @ $40.40, the secondary issue was oversubscribed 3/4 times. In one of your recent comments also, this weakness was again attributed to one large seller.

It has been widely believed that lately NJ issue has been responsible for the depressed stock price. Today's weak backlog numbers and sequential decline in ECU deliveries besides lower after market sales have caused market to press the panick button resulting in another sharp drop.

My concern is that stock may not recover in near term and is even at the risk of losing more value. Should I bail and find better use of my capital? Thanks

Q: Hello,

The following 5 companies are on my buy list to complete my portfolio:

PBH
TOY
NFI
BCE
CAR.UN

I have room for two in my TFSA, two in my non-registered and one in my RRSP. How should I divide the above 5 stocks into these accounts?

My plan is to buy on pullbacks. But I'm thinking about buying CAR.UN now because it has already pulled back on the mortgage news. Does this make sense?
