Q: In a recent question I asked how to proceed in investing the 30% cash I had during this period of volatility. 5 I recommended a slow procedure... I also mentioned that I had already taken a 4.6 % position in JPM and 5 I commented that a slower approach was recommended. It promptly dropped 10% after the question.... But with the current rally is now up 5% . So the question is do I sell half to get back in line with 5 I's slow approach through the volatility or let it ride ? { there are no tax consequences to selling as it is in a RRIF }

Q: How would someone find a list of companies that have been around since the early 1900's (have gone through the depression, wars, hyper inflation etc) and never cut or suspended their dividend? Would those same companies be theoretically safe and follow the same history if we end up in a prolonged recession/depression now?

Q: Hello Team,
May I have your thoughts on both Invesco and Lazard asAmerican Asset Management companies.
Both I believe have growth and the valuation has been blown out of proportion.
If not, would you recommend siding with Morgan Stanley or JP Morgan as the better choices.

Thank you

Q: I bought MPC which only represents less than 2% of my assets but of course it is down 40%. Should I just hold, sell or perhaps consider buying some more or another oil recommenddation when the time is a tad more stable? It is in a RIF account, pays 6%
JPM represents 4% and has really tanked with the events and Jamie Dimons ill health. Just hold on or another recommendation when things balance out a little? Thank you.

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.

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!
