Q: I already own BAM, RY, T, BOYD Income, and ZLU, but I'm looking for another lo -volatility dividend stock with some growth. What do you think of my adding NPI or BEP? Is there another choice you like?

Q: Hello, I sold Descartes DSG quite a while back when you indicated that it was very expensive (and kept Enghouse ENGH), now that you have added DSG to the portfolio I'm wondering if I should sell ENGH and buy DSG back. Or are they 6 of one and half a dozen of the other going forward. In balancing my portfolio I trimmed some CSU because it was up around 17%, so now I do not want to invest in a much lesser quality technology company with the proceeds. Second somewhat related part to this question: I once owned QST, MCR, and BAD and sold them also quite a while ago. Now that you have renewed interest in them and added them to the portfolios I'm feeling a bit reluctant to add them back, I guess because I once sold them. Obviously you have renewed confidence in them. And I'm trying to keep to my principle of following the portfolios. Can you help me regain confidence in these three names. Thanks for great service, as always.

The listed stocks are held in our grandsons RESP. (Age 6) .We have some cash that we would like to deploy. We originally thought People Corp would be a good addition but you warned it is a thin trader and could be volatile. In your opinion what would be your top 3 ideas for a new position.
Thank you

Q: Hi Gang,
I already own many of your balanced and growth funds stocks and have some cash to put to work. Can you rate the above going out 12-24 months out.

Q: Hi, I am looking to add a position in either DSG or LSPD to my RSP. I am looking at these to add some growth as I have a number of bank and utility stocks in my RSP now, which provide dividends but not a lot of growth. Can you please advise which you would recommend, including your reasons and also how they compare from both a risk and growth perspective.

thanks for your advice.

Q: My son is a 22 year old student who would like to start investing his money. He has $2000 to invest within a TFSA and intends to add annually with a long term outlook (he doesn't need the money). Could you please suggest some options that are growth oriented (not averse to risk) and some safer dividend payers, either in Canada or the US?

Q: Hi, Thank you for your timely commentary on the company (and the secondary offering). We bought an initial position (1.75%) today at $49.39 and $50.22. Is it fine to Top up to 3%, right now? Looks like, you like the company. Could you please be kind enough to provide some more details as to its growth trajectory, revenue model (recurring/licensing etc), competition, debt, acquisitions approach and target market etc.. Which are the closet comparable companies in Canada and US? What is insiders/institutions ownership? What will be a possible 5i rating and will you own it in the Growth portfolio today, if had cash? Too many questions, so please deduct credits as you wish. Thanks
