Q: I have decided to only keep a few stocks and follow the Growth ETF Portfolio. Of the 10 stocks I have mentioned above 9 are listed in your BE Portfolio with the exception SHOP. All have done very well for me SHOP up 568%, CCL,B up 180% ,SIS up 159%,MG up 112% and the rest all up between 11 and 42%.So my question is do I keep them all? Sell some ? Any suggestions appreciated.Paul

Q: CCL.B has recovered a wee bit since a big drop 6 months ago. Would you buy for growth or would you prefer BYD.UN for better growth but also considering it has already done well YTD? Consider growth expected over one year.

Thanks!

Q: Hi team, I have these companies in my TSFA. Can you rank these stocks based on highest potential gains (catalysts) in the next 12-24 months? They are equal weight and I will need to liquidate 50% of them within the next year or so. I know short term predictions are difficult but best guestimates are appreciated

Q: Good Afternoon - I currently overweight in Consumer Discretionary stocks and would like to trim the number of stocks held. I am a long term investor (10+) with a healthy risk tolerance. Which in this group are your favourites? Which would you sell first? Thanks. Janet

Q: PBH, NFI, KXS, TSGI, GC, BNS, SIS, CCL and now TOY. Not good. It feels like, for some time now, a lot of risk but not the commensurate reward. Please comment.

Q: Can you please let me know if you have any concerns with the above shares? Are any worthy of adding to today? They are in a non registered account. Good for 5+ years.
Thanks.

Q: I own all of the above in roughly equal weights in my TFSA. I am attempting to replicate your Balanced Equity Portfolio. I am also trying to get more defensive. I think I am overweight in the Info Tech sector. I am looking at a 5 year hold. I have cash to buy another position. What would your advice be - hold the cash or make a purchase. If purchase what would be your recommendation for defensive position?

Thanks for your help.

Q: In my portfolio I have following Canadian equities: AQN (4.9%), BCE (4.78%), BNS (4.64%), WXM (4.5%), SIS (3.8%), BEP (2.68%), MG (2.29%), KXS (2.03%), PBH (1.94%), MX (1.92%), COV (1.87%), TSGI (1.76%).

I have a full positions worth of cash I would like to add to my Canadian content and was wondering on your thoughts as to adding to one new stock (ATD.B, WSP, CCL.B, other suggestion), 2 half positions, or adding to my existing positions.

I have a 20 year time frame and comfortable with some risk.
Thank you.
