Q: I may be incorrectly expecting downward pressure on oil prices given the likelihood of reduced demand from recessionary conditions. As a result I plan on exiting my position in Suncor and moving the funds elsewhere in hopes of capital appreciation. I follow the Balanced Portfolio with a few holdings of some other names you like. Wondering if you could provide a couple of Canadian companies you feel are undervalued right now regardless of sector. Don’t need the cash again for 10 years.

Q: What would be your top picks for dividend stocks that are trading currently at good discounts and have a great recovery potential-across all segments US and Canada? One group making 3.5% or higher; one group 2-3% but have more growth opportunity? Thanks.
Q: Trading near 52wk lows. I read your report and am quite enamored.
Currently P/E around 5, yet management is expecting CAGR of 15% if I understand correctly ?
Market is pricing interest rate hikes and real estate slowdown, but is this not a compelling buy right now ? If not, what would be your better alternatives ?
Thank you !

Q: What are your thoughts on the announced acquisition by EQB of Concentra Bank, along with the big dividend increase. Is this an opportunity to step into the name, considering enhanced growth potential, a current P/E of only 9 (G&M figure) and that there might be a pullback toward the bought deal sub receipt price of $70.50?
Q: Hi there - I've been researching Equitable for a bit and really like it overall. My only issue (beyond a housing decline) is it's total debt (which seems quite high).
Could I possibly get your thoughts on that?
Thanks so much - really appreciate it!
