Q: Seems to me that the financial sector stands to benefit from current economic conditions. That being considered, I would appreciate it if you would share some , small, medium and large cap companies that you would buy at this time to take advantage the possible upside potential of various financials. They could be both Canadian and American companies.

Q: VB on a bit of a tear the last few months. I’m at 1/2 position and can’t decide whether to hold for overall financial sector diversification (also hold BNS, TD, SUnlife, MFC) or sell and add to one or all four of these large caps. Given VB’s valuation has now caught up to the sector, my thinking is it only now moves with the sector on go forward basis, so why not play that game with a safer large cap financial name? Does this make sense?

Q: I thought the 2nd q results issued today were pretty good and the share price has responded. This company appears to be undervalued and it even pays a small dividend. Based on my investing experience, I think the market will eventually notice this company or it will get bought out.

Q: Good morning, I hold these smaller cap companies in my TFSA for more aggressive growth, a strategy I believe you endorse.
In this new reality, I am thinking of a more conservative approach and selling the above and converting to FTS, RY, XRE, SLF.
If things recover well I will get a great pop on the big caps without the individual company risk associated with the smaller caps. If things go poorly with the recovery, my large cap mix should drop a lot less than the smaller caps.
Also, any of the above smaller caps that you do not like.

Thanks
Rob

Q: Good morning, Please comment on Versabank's recent quarter. Also, how does their forward PE compare to similar companies and the big banks? They now have a book vallue of $9.98 vs, stock value around $7.30, why the gap? Also, any thoughts on their new initiatives, specifically Versa Vault. I know you removed this from the growth portfolio early this year, do you think you would put it back in based on growing divvy and new initiatives?
Thanks
Rob

Q: I’m struggling to decide which 3 of these holdings have the greatest potential if the only criteria was growth in a TFSA for a 5 year + hold.
I would appreciate any thoughts on which 3 you might keep and why (or which 3 you might divest and why).
