Q: Do you see any reason why BCE cannot keep paying there dividend and keep raising it at say five percent per year for the foreseeable future? I am looking at selling long term puts at about sixty two dollars and would appreciate your thoughts. Do you consider the governments comments about high cellphone rates as a serious concern? THANKS

Q: I have two small positions in CSH.UN (1.3%) and SIS (1.0%), and I wanted to consolidate the invested capital into one holding. I consider them both to be investments within the healthcare space, which is part of the reason for consolidating these two holdings. I am strongly leaning towards selling CSH.UN and buying more SIS. Does this sound reasonable, or is there another option worth considering?

Q: AXSM
I owned this stock 2k shares at $18. It rose extremely quickly and I sold my position at $48.
It is now over $100, some of the current recent reports I have been reading are amazing and it was just upgraded with a target price of $180.
It is currently $100. What do you think of AXSM, should I just leave it and post the gain or should I reenter again at 5X the price I bought less than a year ago?
Your opinion would be appreciated.

Thanks


Sheldon

Q: I was reviewing my portfolio and thinking about 2020. Right now I have a large cash position and will want to invest some of that next year. But in what stocks?

An interview with Sir John Templeton on ROBTV many, many years ago came to mind and it may be a good advice for others.

Sir John was asked when was a good time to buy a stock and he stated "at the point of maximum pessimism".

Then he was asked when was a good time to sell a stock and he replied "you sell a stock when you find a better stock to buy."

I hope I can remember that advice as we move into and through 2020.
