Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I am thinking of adding/increasing my position in an insurance company and have found that the combined ratio for both MFC and SLF are more than 100 while CB and TSU’s combined ratio is in the low 80. Does that mean MFC and SLF are not as profitable as CB and TSU? Which is a good buy currently? Thanks,

Q: I have decided to buy a large position in BCE
after x div date Dec 15th. Technically it shows no signs of recovery yet.
I belive its pays a higher divident and has as much upside potential as Aqn,Spb and Pgi.un which I will sell.
On the negative side, my fear is that companies like Att ,Vodaphone and Telephonica have been a loosing investment for 20 years.
What are your comments.
Thank you,
Joe

Q: Recently I asked a question about premium brands. When I thought my question wasn't answered I re-asked the question. However I was too fast and you did answer my original question. So I apologize for being too hasty. My next question relates to the app. I have a new tablet and am having no luck in finding the app on Google playstore. Any suggestions? I'll wait patiently for your answer.

Q: I am down 1/3 in ATS in a TFSA and want to move into something with some momentum.
Please provide a handful of suggestions for a growth name I can buy and forget in the short term.
Any sector. Canadian and US, but US preferred. I may also consider a growth-oriented ETF that might prove low-maintenance for the next 10 years.
Thank you in advance, your input is always appreciated and certainly helpful.

Q: Just to build on the question from Allan today (Nov. 8th) and your answer, can you re-visit your most recent report on SJ and make some comments on what what might change if you were updating that report today? I consider your reports a fundamental and valuable component of your service, and when I re-read your report with the information that we now have there are few things that don’t seem to track. Based on the ratings criteria is this now a B+ (or even B) company? I know “post-mortem” is too dramatic, but maybe a report “de-brief” is in order?
