Q: ZWB versus Bank of Nova Scotia for my Dad, my kids RESP or myself. The banking portion of a
healthy 90 year old's well balanced successful portfolio, wouldn't mind some cash flow and to maintain initial investment. Well balanced RESP, 1/2 is laddered bonds, will need the funds in 2-7 years, have 12.5% in ZWB, should it change to BNS? For myself, 15 years before I need cash, well balanced portfolio - ZWB vs BNS?

Q: Hey Peter. Masterful job on MarketCall.

Question on strategy: Seeing the larger discount, than its historical average compared to its peers, I am accumulating a position in National Bank. If I get to a full position (5% of my portfolio) and the large discount remains compared to its peers, would you overweight National Bank or would you start accumulating a second bank, as they also seem to look attractive at these levels. Currently National Bank is my only financial.

Q: Reading your response on National bank (NA) dating Feb 21, 2013, you were right on the money re its growth outlook. Their financial results were somewhat "boring" - neither up/nor down which is in-line with your comments. Other than distributino of dividends (and possibly peace of mind), would you see any other reason to own this stock. Some of the other banks such as TD and RBC seem to be firing on all cylinders. And would Scotia or one of the other banks probably offer a good mix between National Bank and one at the opposite extreme? Thanks again.
