Q: I am continuing to take initial positions (about 1% each) in a TFSA to build a diversified set of stocks. Primary focus is income with some growth. I have a 10 year plus timeframe. Currently have SU, KXS, ENB. Looking to add either BYD.UN or BAD. Both seem solid and are close to 52 week highs. Which of these two (if either) is recommended first and why? I could possibly add the other later if it remains solid.

Thank you

Q: Hi guys! I asked this question a few days ago and received no reply. Not sure what happened, it could have been on my end. I have equal portions of these 8 stocks in my TFSA. What do you think of these stock selections?
Thank You !

Q: I have held both of these stocks for over 5 years. A&W has done well , but not Boston Pizza, I'm about 15% down of the purchase price of BPF. Do enjoy the high dividend of BPF. Both are held in a RRSP account. They are 2.25% and 1.40% of the portfolio. Trying to decide if I should sell Boston Pizza and add to A&W. or move to another stock for growth. I like to buy and hold. Any thoughts would be helpful

Q: I own a healthcare company in my portfolio called Craneware PLC. It mostly does business in the US but is listed in London. I know this is not your primary focus but I would like your opinion. It warned on profits and took a 35% haircut last Friday. Do you think the drop was overdone?
