Q: Looking at these long term compounders in various sectors. Based on current valuation and future growth, how would you rank these and which ones would you buy now or DCA into over time?

I'm already holding full positions in BKNG, BN, CSU, LMN, half positions in V,MA,WSP, and smaller position in TRI. I would either add to my smaller positions or add new positions in the others.

Are there any other 2-3 long term compounders that you would consider good buys currently?

Thank you!

Q: Would appreciate your assessment of TRI and INTA. These 2 stocks in the professional services sub-sector appear to be accelerating due to AI. Correct me if I am wrong but do you see increasing TAM attributable to improved service to clients and and reduced costs. Would you have high conviction or less so with this idea? How would you rate these or others in the professional services sub-sector.
More generally, are there other industrial sub-sectors where AI is improving client services and reducing costs. Any other names to suggest.

Q: Peter, is there a list of TSX listed companies that get a majority of their earnings from US operations ? With US protectionism and aggression likely to increase is it a sound strategy to focus on these companies with the $Cdn portion of a equity retirement portfolio ? Thank you.

Q: It seems the economies of Canada and the United States are diverging and not for the better in Canada. This makes it difficult for me to buy Canadian companies as opposed to American. My question is, have any Canadian companies foreseen an advantage to shifting a good part of their operations to the United States to take advantage of the possibilities for making better profits?

Q: Hello to you! I know these are different companies at different stages of their cycles. You very recently suggested BYD, and have relatively recently recommended the other two stocks. Would you be able to rank them in order of preference if you bought them today? I'm looking for the best midterm to long-term growth. I love the service, thank you!

Q: Greetings, can you suggest a handful of Canadian names (not financials) that you would consider to have a “margin of safety” right now? I know value ideas aren’t necessarily your investing style, but I don’t want any more money sitting on the sidelines while “waiting for the other shoe to drop”, so looking for something steady with a reasonable dividend that might offer some downside protection. Thank you.

Q: I have held PBH in my cash account for sometime and am up a paltry 6%. I'm considering selling and replacing with either LLY, HD or TRI. Looking for greater growth and willing to take on moderate risk. 3-5 year hold. I know these companies are apples and oranges, but I would appreciate your views on risk and reward for PBH, LLY, HD and TRI and which you would recommend I hold going forward. Thank you.
