Q: Another question regarding sector allocation. I am overweight in Financials (20%), but would like to add either SLF or TRI. The Financials I currently hold are: BAM, BIPC, X and VISA. Are the economic drivers sufficiently different for either SLF or TRI that I could justify further overweighting this sector? Thank you.

Q: Which one of these would be the best choice for a RESP. Beneficiary is an older child (grandson) who will start to draw funds from mid 2021 onwards. Looking for the best return within the 2 to 5 years remaining before total drawdown of funds would be completed.

I plan to establish a new RESP for a great granddaughter soon. She is not yet 2 years so has a long time horizon. Any suggestions?

Q: I was wondering if you would be able to give me a few stock buy and sells based on the upcoming US election.

1. If Trump wins, what stocks could do well and what stock will not do well.
2. If Biden wins, what stocks could do well and what stocks will not do well.

Can you give me a few of your Growth Portfolio stocks that you might considering lightening up on and a few stocks that you might consider purchasing more. (Feel free to add in any other CAN stocks and a few US stock as well).

Q: In the time since the sharp decline in markets in March I would sometimes notice when I just happened to be looking at a particular stock or ETF chart that for a select few they rebounded almost immediately (in days, or more often a few weeks). It was almost as people suddenly realized “hey, wait a minute, there was no reason for that to have sold off”. Unfortunately, in typical fashion, I didn’t note them anywhere. If we were to have another major negative market move (for any of the reasons floating around), are there any companies or ETF’s that come to mind to watch for that might repeat that pattern?

Thank you,

Q: Hi,

Please rank these REITs for relative distribution safety and eventual share price recovery.

Is there one in particular that you'd get rid of?

Thanks,

Q: Could you explain just what the difference is between BEPC and BEP.UN? I understands that one is a trust and the other isn't, and I understand the tax advantages of BEPC in an unregistered account. But aren't they essentially the same company? And if so how is it it BEPC can be up over 7% this week while BEP.UN is up less than 1%? I would expect this to even out, but even on the month BEPC is up much more than BEP.UN. How is that possible if they're the same company?

Q: Hi,
This is just a comment on another question - it may be of interest to note JKS has a short float of more than 20%, which may lead to short covering as price rises. suspect it is getting a boost from the overall renewables theme, but short covering might be exaggerating things? Always enjoy perusing the Q&A section - thanks for all the insight!
