Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: My son is in his early 20s and building a portfolio based on your balanced portfolio. He currently holds 11 stocks. He has no industrials, communications and only TOY in the consumer space. We are thinking of selling ADN from his TFSA and replacing it with SIS or PBH as we know you recommend growth stocks in a TFSA. He also has MX in the material sector. Is this a good plan, not necessary, or do you have another suggestion from the above list that you think is better? Thanks

Q: Mastec reported a record quarter with eps of .99 against an estimate of 0.62 and increased its guidance as well. The stock spiked 7% but is now in a downward drift trading below the pre release prices. Could you direct me to any information or news that would help explain this downward pressure? Also, do you have an opinion on this company? Would you buy at these levels?
Thank you.

Q: In a diversified RRSP account I have 10% industrials with positions in XTC, ZCL, NFI, and MG. Have been patient with XTC and can remain so, but do own MG already. The account is more growthy given time to need. Looking for a second opinion on my thought to swap XTC for DOO/CAE/BYD. Would you make the switch? If so to witch name? I don't trade a lot but do watch the names and account fairly closely.

Q: Hello
Need some advice please. 62 and recently retired. RRSP's are almost maxed out but only a few k in TFSA account.
As my income is now at its lowest point (CPP),I'm
thinking I should start moving some RRSP funds to my TFSA?
I'm considering a mix of ETF's such as VAB,VCN,XAW or perhaps some of your Income stocks and funds such as CPD,XHY,BCE and BNS.
Note that I do hold most stocks in the balanced portfolio.
Thanks for your great service.
Gary
