Q: I have held a position in CSH.UN for a long time. I recognize that the share price growth will be slow, but its distribution growth is frustratingly slow.
I'm not looking to hit a homerun. I'm looking for stability and really my main focus is distribution growth as I plan to hold long term.
I am looking to add to my REIT holdings. Are there other REITs you would suggest or should I add to CSH?
Kind thanks for your time and expertise.

Q: Your last report on this company had FWD EV/EBITDA at about 13. What is that ratio now? I am concerned the stock has appreciated well past its fair value and is due for a sharp correction.

The 5 year chart shows an incredible change in trend starting in 2019. I have rarely seen this type of chart continue higher.

I am considering selling the position and buying back in $5 or $10 lower. Is this getting too cute or prudent profit taking.

Q: My son's company offers a matching contribution of 2.5% into either an rrsp or tfsa. His current salary is approximately 65000. The company already has a defined benefit plan which is tax deductible. Should he choose a rrsp or tfsa? He has 30 years before he can retire. What do you think would be an appropriate plan of action?

Q: I am not happy with Telus decision to go 5G with Huawei mostly for security reasons but also, the possibility that the government may say no to Huawei 5G if they stop and listen to their national security arm including the Military. I own BCE now, is there another equivalent in North America you could recommend? Thanks

Q: General market question. Jim Cramer is suggesting that while Coronavirus persists as potential disruptor that can't be quantified, more subjectively valued stocks like those in the cloud - say TTD, AYX etc - or those like Tesla will see gains as people buy on growth and momentum. His belief is that these stocks are being bought based on growth alone whereas the market would hold more traditional companies like Cisco, Caterpillar or Home Depot to account based on potential impact of the virus disrupting sales.

My question is whether you agree with his thesis that the cloud stocks will continue to do well as Corona uncertainty lingers or if they stand to fall the most if worst case fears are realized.

As a follow up, if one were to keep only one of Home Depot, TTD or Cisco in current times, which would you hold?

Q: Hi. Currently UTX is about 3.2% of my portfolio and I am considering bumping it up to 4.5% as part of a portfolio restricting exercise. The question is, should I do it now or wait until it splits into three separate companies. I usually try to keep my portfolio at 20 stocks and this split doesn't help with that goal, but I have read that stocks which split tend to do well post-split. I would greatly appreciate your views. thanks, J

Q: I have a 4.5-5% weighting in all of these and they represent my tech holdings. Any need in your opinion to sell any of them in light of world news? Might LSPD as an example feel the impact of fewer restaurant goers? Would you sell any of these based on fundamentals to replace with something you prefer more?
