Q: I have a 5% position in BCE and a 4% position in NWC, which I consider both to be "full", relative to their "blue chip status". I have a little bit of cash available to top up either or both. With the recent weakness in both BCE and NWC, would you add to either at this time? From an asset allocation perspective it doesn't really matter which, although I could use a bit more in the consumer space.

BCE = Now that the election is behind us, does the threat of cell phone fee reductions seem more likely? What does the future look like?

NWC = At last reporting, I understand the airline expansion was possibly holding back results...any new news?

Thanks...Steve

Q: Hello

I read MA is to acquire tech firm for an undisclosed sum. Since then, the stock has been dipping down .
Would you see this acquisition a plus to the company and would you recommend buying some stock here?
MX - stock is down drastically since Dec2018 and did not recover yet.
The company stated they reached an 5 year agreement with ENAP for natural gas supply to its Chile operations.
What is your outlook on the company in general and do you see the stock recover soon ?

Thank you

Q: Hello 5i,
I am 73 years old, a value investor. Except for Chartwell (bounces around), NFI and Pasons, all the rest are doing well ( not so ZPR, CLF and CBO). I am up $10,000 on many of my 50 equities but these individually are not over 2% of holdings. I do not need the money and see no reason to sell my winners. Thus since there are no losers, as such, to sell and I think I should keep my winners. With all this talk of tax loss selling: do I, at this point, have a dire need for tax loss selling? I do not think so, but then again, that is just me.
Thank you
Stanley
