Q: I have about $50,000.00 US which I am looking to use to purchase 3-4 US stocks in a non-registered (taxable)account. I am happy to hold long term. Am thinking of purchasing either Disney or Time Warner and one or two others. Can you recommend a couple of additional US larger caps? We do have AIG/Halliburton/GE in our rrsp. Thanks for the terrific service. Bill Y.

Q: Hi,I have picked up great profits from JNJ (50%) and GIS (40%)
but I think a substantial market correction is coming.
Should I sell these 2 stocks and buy back in on the dip with the likes of these 2 or MCD,DIS,CL,GE,DD,BNS,for example?
I know it goes against the premise of "Keep the good and sell the bad but those profits are very tempting. By the way, I also hold FSZ and CGX, 2 of your recommendations, but I see those as growth stories that will keep climbing - keep up the good work.
Regards. Robert

Q: hello 5i:
First, a comment. I've complimented you on the service you offer, so no need to go back there. But I would like to add that this Q and A forum has become a necessity for me: first place I look EVERY DAY, and I'm constantly surprised by the things I learn reading questions from my peers (and of course your answers). Also get some very good portfolio ideas, so that is a thank you to all that write in.
Second: Peter, can I have your single best idea for the Health Care Sector (I currently have no exposure to this sector); stability is more important than growth (70/30) and a dividend is essential. Thanks, I'll look forward to this.
Paul
