Q: Which consumer staple / defensive stocks would you recommend and why. (I already hold Alimentation-Couche Tard and will continue to hold this one.)

Also own Proctor & Gamble and OK to trade this one in an RRSP.
Really want something for 10 years and not to worry about ups and downs of market but happy to look at something of good value currently.
Please choose any of the above or another choice. Safety and sleep at night are priorities. Please Rank for me excluding ATD.

Thank you 5i.

Q: Greetings 5i,

What do you think of these 2 companies? Which do you prefer long term and which do you think may possibly see a better move post Covid (shorter term) ? Would you recommend any other companies that may benefit from any enthusiastic return of summer BBQ parties, sports/entertainment events, gatherings, weddings, etc.

Cheers and Cheers!

Q: My advisor has suggested I average down buy these two stocks PEP and K (underwater on both). I'm hesitant to proceed that way and would rather look at consumer discretionary ideas with more growth. What would you suggest? I consider myself an aggressive investor. Looking for a 2-3 year hold.

Thanks, as always for th great advise.

Dave
