Q: Enb in my portfolio has a book value of $42.16
And a yield of 7%. It now represents 10% of my portfolio. This my largest position in a portfolio of $630000. I generally buy for dividend and growth. Maybe I should reduce my position in ENB and take a 5% position in another dividend paying stock with growth potential. eg. CM or other opportunities. Any suggestions.

Q: Two questions:

I read this morning about Canfor shutting down a BC interior mill due to lack of raw log inventory and processing costs. The article indicated that more mill shutdowns in BC will be inevitable due to the same factors.

Does WEF have a sufficiently large inventory of harvestable trees to avoid shutting down any of their mills in the foreseeable future? What about the processing costs at their mills. Are they at the lower cost end compared to other mills?

Thanks as always
Peter

Q: I have some extra cash to add to the balanced portfolio. Can you select 3 of these stocks that present the best purchase opportunities at the moment for a long-term hold?

Q: These three companies are a part of balanced equity model portfolio as of last report. All three are down somewhere in the range of 15-20% since April 30. Do you still like/recommend them (i.e. are they still a "buy") or there is a change in your views and you are going to dump them and replace in BE portfolio?

Q: WEF has been in losing ground for a year, and seems to have been range-bound for the four years previous. Do you think that yet more bad news on duties is already priced-in, or could things get quite a bit worse from here? Interestingly, Tier 2 data shows a disproportion of bids (vs asks) close-by the trading price; I would have thought this implied buyer confidence in future prospects - yet the price is not being supported.
