Q: It seems to me that one one of the major themes going forward that we as investors must pay attention to is on-shoring or the re-industrialization of the United States and the western world. Please share with me some of the global and Canadian companies that should benefit if this trend continues. I'm interested in both individual companies and ETFs.

Q: I have owned NSC and CSX for many years and have done quite well. I am thinking about trimming some profit and diverting into Amazon. I want to own Amazon but wonder if I am getting into it too late and where the valuation is excessively high. How might you approach this scenario? Would you consider selling profit off of CSX and NSC and buying amazon or stay put? I am a long term investor.

Thank you

Q: Good afternoon,
I hold the following stocks in my business account that have a weight of between 6.2% and 8.3%. This account was started in DEC/16 and has increased by 6.7% YTD not including dividends. I want to add six more stocks to further diversify while reducing the percentage per equity down to between 4 and 5%.

My goal is to generate income equal to the amount of corporate tax payable annually. I looks like this can be achievable!

Let me know if I need to share dollar values to help access.
