Q: Peter and team:

I am currently down about 20% on TFI in a well balanced long term hold portfolio.
I am considering cutting my losses and buying NFI. Would you consider these in the same "sector", and what is you opinion of this switch.
My concern is how much upside is left in NFI. I have owned it in my kids RESP and done well (2.5x), but am wondering how much "growth" is left.

Than you as always for a great service!

Q: I am looking at these 4 stocks for a combination of growth and income. Do you see any problem with these or do you have a better suggestion? Also, do you feel now is a good time to buy or would it be better to wait until summer is over?

Q: Hi, It appears from recent comments that you like this company a lot and it will be a favorite addition to your portfolios, when possible. I had a 4% position ( purchased at $37 and $41.50), but decided to trim over past 2 weeks. I believe that company has a solid growth profile for next 5 years, specially in municipal buses segment in US. They continue to receive large orders. But I am not sure of the recent purchase of motor coach business and its future prospects (could you comment pls). In addition, my other concern is insider selling. Coliseum Capital (L. Adam Gray) the 2nd largest shareholder of the co. has cut their holding by at least 25-30% over past 6 months and continues to do so, as recent as June 10 (243,300 shares @41.01). I think this could be a reason for stock unable to move out of $40- $41.50 range, for past several weeks, despite a very strong quarter and promising outlook. I would appreciate it if you could share your thoughts and is it prudent to wait to add to this stock . Thanks

Q: Peter and team:

I have done very well on both NFI and WEF (2x) in an RESP for my kids. First withdrawals will be in 2-3 years.
In your opinion should I sell both and re-invest in something less volatile, or hang on for the ride.
Also, what do you think of BMO low volatility funds (ZLB and ZLU) as options on a 2-3 year RESP.
Deduct a couple if you see fit. Thanks as always.

Q: Hello, I am trying to choose between NFI and SIS. Both of the stocks are releasing their earning reports in a few days. Do you have any thoughts or any knowledge on whether they will do well? I would appreciate some guidance as to which stock I should pick that would offer the best value and best potential in the future. Do you think I should maybe buy half NFI and half in SIS to spread my risk more evenly? Thanks.
