Q: I would like to own WELL. My hesitation is what you identify under Key Risks in your report - "inability to compete with larger players such as Telus and Loblaw in the digital health care solutions space ".
I own both Telus and Loblaw and recognize that their exposure to digital health space is a small part of their over-all business at this point while WELL is the pure play growth option.
Having difficulty assessing this and would appreciate your thoughts.
Not asking for specific portfolio advice , but just in broad , general terms -
if one owns these two larger companies , would it be appropriate to put Well in the "like to own " rather than "need to own " category and allocate capital elsewhere .
Thank-you

Q: Hi,
is the current debt level for ABBV to risky in the current economic environment or is the projected cash flow enough to reduce this risk? Might this cause dividend increases in the future not to happen?
In some of your answers to questions from members regarding health care stocks in the US, you often mention the election as a possible concern. Could you expand on this please? I assume you mean that one party is better than the other for this sector.
Thanks,
Dan

Q: These four fine companies are all RSI oversold at present. I know you like all of them, or have, and am wondering if they could be considered strong buys at these levels ( for long term holders) or whether best to wait and see what the coming weeks bring us all. What order of priority would you give them for current investment? BTW, thanks for the consistently calm and perspective-driven approach you take in your advice.

Q: most if not all of these companies are down 20-30% and consequently many pay very high dividends; have they been unfairley thrown into the same bin as oil & gas companies by investors? Could this be a buying opportunity of undervalued solid companies.

Q: I am currently have a large position in Atco and it has been going down a lot since Covid. Going forward, what is your view of continuing to hold ACO.X vs a swap into FTS, ENB, AQN, or CU. Could a swap in either one or into a combination of these be of benefit for a long-term hold for a risk averse investor? What is your recommendation given the current valuations, recovery potential and future growth outlook?
Many thanks!

Q: I am interested in starting a position in one or two of the above three companies. I know that Goeasy is a financial company and also pays a dividend. I therefore have a slight leaning toward Goeasy first.

Could you rate the 3 companies, best first with any pros and cons that you feel are noteworthy. What company do you feel might have the most upside in the next two or three years. Thanks for your wisdom and guidance. It has helped me on many occasions in purchasing good companies, such as Kinaxis and Lightspeed.
