Q: I hold Chartwell REIT and Chemtrade Logistics, 3% and 2.7% respectively. Am looking to add to either (or both?) in this market downturn, for income. What is a good weighting for these companies, and which is the most likely to withstand another barrage of sell-offs? (That is, which sector, which company, is likelier to do well in such an environment.) Thanks!

Q: I apologize if you have already answered this, but I can't find it. Given that the TSX will be moving Chartwell to the Healthcare sector, do you think that is an accurate allocation when trying to build a diversified portfolio? I'm inclined to leave it in Financials as a REIT. Would you agree, or should it comprise part of my Healthcare component?

Thank you.

Q: I like the theme of seniors' care for the long term. I have a small position (<3%) of CSH.UN in my TFSA and it has done well over the last couple of years. Would you add to this or sell it and replace it with a different name in the same space. (I also have a bit of KMP and some D.Un in non-registered accounts, in case other REIT holdings might influence your comments.)

Thanks for your help - I've been with you since almost the beginning and I love your service!

Hello Peter
I am looking for safety of dividends and dividend growth, with some share price growth too, and can add about 1% to an existing position.
I am considering adding to one of :

Chartwell CSH.UN - I have a 0.1% starter position..... yield 4.6%.
Emera EMA - I have a 2.0% position........ yield 4.04%.
Enbridge ENB - I have a 2.4% position............yield about 3.07 after latest increase.
Enbridge Income Fund ENF - I have a 5% position............... yield 4.48%.

Which has the least liklihood of a dividend cut, and which would you pick, and why would you choose the one you do.
Thank You ....... Paul K

Q: I'd like your opinion on Chartwell REIT (CSH.UN). Both it and Lesureworld (LW) have performed extremely well in the last 12 months, especially if you consider the dividends/distributions they provide and how safe/stable they should be.
I currently only own CSH.UN, and it represents about 10% of my overall portfolio. Would you maintain an overweight position or sell half and buy LW? Do you think the sector is overbought? I'm almost 35, and am ok with taking on some risk.
