Q: Hi guys, I own the following with the respective total portfolio weightings. My TFSA is all CDN and RRSP is a mix of USD/CDN. When I rebalance, should I try and rebalance with respect to % of TFSA and % of RRSP or rebalance each holding as a percent of overall portfolio? If the latter, I would consolidate some of the holdings in my TFSA to bump up the individual weightings. Are there any obvious adjustments that I should make? I’m heavy on AAPL but have sold so much of it over the years I’m very tempted to let the remaining shares ride.
Please deduct as many credits as you see fit and many thanks for the excellent service you provide. The Q/A is invaluable as are the periodic market summaries. You’ve pulled me away from the panic button many, many times.

Q: Hi,
Just trying to clean up the portfolio a bit. I'm holding sector ETF's ZUH and ZBK, but I also hold JPM and GILD, for example. I see that JPM is 5% holding within ZBK, but GILD is not even a holding within ZUH. Is there any point holding both the sector ETF's and any/some individual stocks in that sector. Thoughts on this?

Thanks!

Q: I'm interested in researching US financial institutions for new investment ideas. Could you provide me with a shortlist of 4 to 5 US companies (e.g., chartered banks and any other financial institutions) that I might consider. Many thanks.

Q: Peter please: I have owned a full position in JP Morgan since the lows of 2009 and have had a tremendous gain in this stock. I also purchased wells Fargo and Citigroup and some other top us financials around the same time and have held all this time. Recalling how US financial stocks plumetted in 2009 has lately given me pause. After ten years of building this wonderful gain, is it now time to sell (tax is a consideration here obviously) or hang in for the very long term in keeping with my usual long term strategy and risk my gains evaporating a la 2009. I gravitate to quality companies however I realize how poorly financial stocks can behave in a serious downturn and don't want to see my hard earned gains erode in jpm. Do you consider jpm a trade or a very long term hold. Side note I'm liking Facebook these days and considering ways to fund a FB purchase.
