Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I am doing some sector re-balancing of an income oriented portfolio. Can you please suggest a name other than Loblaw or Alimentation C-T to add in the Consumer staples/non-cyclical space, and also a recommendation for two new positions in Utilities (I am considering Fortis, Algonquin, Enbridge and Canadian Utilities, but open to other ideas).

Thank you,

Q: Hi, I have owned NWC for about 5 years. It has come down this year as a result of several poorer quarters. I am considering selling it as I am concerned that another weaker quarter will send it even lower. Firstly, do you think this is a good idea. I also own a half position in ATD.b., bought in January, 2014, and am considering adding to this position if I sell NWC. If you feel this transaction is a good move should I wait for a pullback in ATD.b as it is near the top of its range or would you consider another consumer company instead. I am looking for a long term position in the consumer staples area. Thank you for your assistance. I do appreciate your site and the work you do. Lynda
