Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I mainly follow the balanced portfolio I'm looking to add a industrial and a healthcare stock. I have a full position in NFI, CAE and MG. I have full positions in SIS(I have considered it a healthcare company rather than a industrial) and UNH(in the US). I also have a tiny position in COV and a small 2% position in GUD. Would you have more confidence in WSP or TFII? What other healthcare stock would you add? I'm not a high risk investor but understand all stocks have a risk. I have 10+ years. Thank you for your advice I have gained many investment insights.

Q: Hi, the listed shares currently make up my portfolio in relatively equal portions. I was wondering--with the $6000 TFSA amount, do any of these names stick out to top up with the full $6k or partial amounts? Alternatively I have been following Savaria SIS and considering initiating a new position? Thanks so much for your guidance.

Q: I Have held Knight Therapeutics (GUD.TO) in my Granddaughter's trust account for a number of years, but sold today with the jump in price for a small profit. I'M am now looking for a stock in the Health Care sector to replace it, preferably one that pays a dividend.
Would you be comfortable with Savaria (SIS.TO) for a 3-4 year hold? Could you recommend one or two others? Many thanks

Q: I own OHI (2% weighting) in my RRSP and over the past year have seen a decent run up in the stock. The dividend is now 8%. Can I get your thoughts on the company, short position and if you feel a move out of OHI to either BIIB or PFE would be advisable. Or just add a 2% position in these other two companies? 15+ year investment horizon.

Q: Hi, you had a comment on AT&T late July and I was wondering, with recent weakness, what the fundamentals look like for this company now. Do you see long term value here? If you think this is a stock with limited prospects going forward, do you have another US income stock (any sector) that might make for a better replacement? Many thanks. Michael

Q: Hello. Can you point me in the direction of a few solid health sector, dividend paying stock options that would be suitable to hold within an RRSP? I’m looking at a five to eight year horizon and consider myself as a ‘low to moderate’ risk investor.
PS found recent ‘ How to Pick a Stock in 2018’ very helpful. Thanks!

Q: Lads the above are my US dollar income tilt portfolio holdings. My goal is to add some US cash to stable dividend payers (some of these and perhaps some others you can suggest). Two questions I have - first, could you possibly rank these 9 from most stable to least so I can consider which ones are the most stable to add to my current holding and second, can you recommend some other US equities providing a minimum 3% dividend that you view as stable holdings. Thanks as always for your guidance.
