Q: I've held these partial positions for some time now and am below water on all but NTR.
The objective here is income with some growth.
If all positions were sold and you had to consolidate all proceeds into just one of the four options provided, which would you choose and why?
What would you choose if you were forced to sell all four and reposition into one new company?

Q: When the initial shock at SVB happened, I traded First Republic shares and made enough profits to buy a long position when the shares went into the 12's. I don't believe that the US Govt. will allow these "small" banks to fail. Ex: FRC has over 7000 employees.
Are there any other US "small" banks that you screen that have been hammered but have a good prospect of surviving and flourishing? I have a very high risk tolerance.
Thank you Gordo

Q: If you were entering new money today to try to yield at least 4 or 5 percent, what would be your top 5-10 dividend income stocks in Canada that you feel would be a safe hold for at least ten years? Alternatively, what would be your top dividend stocks in the U.S. obviously yielding less?
Q: Wondering if this is a good time to take a position in one of these Canadian mid-stream oil companies. Which one would you buy today if looking for the highest short term price appreciation? (say over the next year). Why?

Q: I have 6% of portflio in ENB. Will it be better to sell 50% of ENB and buy KEY for better risk management and capital appreciation. Although ENB pays 2% more dividend.
OR
Will it be prudent to sell half or all of ENB and buy CSU?
Thank you, kam

Q: Would you assume greater upside potential for Keycorp or bank of America at these levels?
Q: Please give me your updated opinion on Keycorp vs the larger US banks. I appreciate your help.
Q: Would you consider KEY a reasonable buy at today's prices to be held for dividend and some minor growth? Is there another company you would prefer for the same objectives of dividend and growth? Would you prefer KEY to ALA in view of the latter's potential current issues?
Q: Could you please comment on the earnings and which one to purchase or both"
