Q: Thank you for your thoughtful answers to my previous questions, Peter and Co.

This year, my 50/50 asset allocation portfolio using SPY and a US Money market fund did well while the market ended where it started. I rebalanced when the market dropped by 10% which happened three times — an unusually high frequency.

History shows that 10% drops happen twice within three years whereas 5% drops occur more than twice a year. Would investors do better by rebalancing after a 5% move rather than waiting for a 10% move?

Q: I have owned TRI for many years in my RRSP and have finally been rewarded with share price momentum. With the recent sale of the financial and risk business, I am now confused on their future direction and growth drivers. Does it make sense to sell and move on? I was thinking of replacing TRI with BBU.U. Thoughts?

Q: Is Canada out of favor by International Investors. WE Can't get anything done. No Pipelines. International Oil Companies have pulled their funds out of Oil Sands. I listen to BNN Market Call and the majority of Fund Managers say that 2019 will be good year for stocks with a 10 % upward move in earnings. Are we ( retail Investors ) getting suckered in by these slick Portfolio Managers ?
Are you expecting a good rally in early 2019 after all the tax loss selling is over. What will turn International investors on to Canada. The Conservative Party winning next years Election or something else / RAK
