Q: Hi

Is KKR like a mini BRK.B?

We presently own BRK.B at about 5,5% of our holdings.

Would you suggest adding to BRK.B or start a small position in KKR.

I understand you can not mention position sizes, but also respect your suggestions.

Thank you

Mike

Q: You’ve picked and stuck with some real winners in the past. You were upbeat on nividia well before it jumped in price as an example! Do you think BN will be a longer term winner? You likely address this in a prior question (in which case please feel free to direct me to your answer), but I am wondering if can briefly give me your top reasons why one may want to buy and hold BN. Thanks.

Q: I'm looking to invest $60,000 for a minimum of 5 years. This money will be used towards a downpayment for a house. Can you please comment on a split of 50% SPY and 50% quality stocks, such as GOOG, MSFT, SLF, ATD, BN. Also can you please suggest some additional stock ideas that are fairly conservative for a 5 year hold. Thanks!

Q: Hi,

Total return, long term investor with a diversified portfolio. I have a tiny position in BAM that I either want to add to or sell. If I sell, I could put the proceeds into BN.

Does it make sense to consolidate into BN or to build a bigger position in BAM? Which is likely to have the best total return over the next few years?

Thank you, Michael

Q: Hi Team,
I had the following on my watchlist to "buy the dip" so to speak: LMN,BN, BIP.UN. WELL. After today they have all had nice moves off what was hopefully a "bottom". Is it time to buy? Is risk on again? Or is this a suckers rally after the fed induced rally? Predictive question I know...just looking for opinion. This being said; if it's a good time to buy, What Canadian stocks would you be your Top picks to buy today for a long term hold? Could you rank a list for me please? Thanks

Shane.

Q: Hello

I am looking to deploy some capital ($8,000) into the new FHSA and was looking for some ideas of how to diversify this $$. I have a 3-5 year timeframe and will likely not be actively trading these positions. Can you please advise how it would be best to deploy the funds given the time frame and with a moderate to high risk tolerance.

Can be the companies mentioned above or others. CSU would be great but given it is almost $3,000 a share, not much room to work with that.

Was thinking along the lines of 100 shares of BN @ $42 range and 200 shares of Lumine @ $19 range

Any other ideas of price points you think might be best?

Thanks as always for your help
