Q: In response to James, thanks for the great comment and the humility to post it. I remember reading somewhere that the stock market is designed to make the majority of investors look foolish. With my increased wisdom and trading skills it now takes up to a week before the stocks I buy diminish in value.

Q: Hi Peter & co., I am reluctant to reduce my holdings in in two stocks that have each crept up to almost 7% of my over all portfolio: CSU and BCE. Are they both ok to leave at this level and hope my portfolio fills out to adjust them organically? The percentages seem to fluctuate almost daily.
Many thanks for you steady hand on our tillers!

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
Healthcare/Pharma represents 12.1% of my RRIF portfolio with Catamaran, Cipher, Concordia, Knight Therapeutics, BioSyent and Valeant; I also own ProMetic Life Sciences in my TFSA.
I was thinking of adding a small basket of the following: CRH Medical, Patient Home Monitoring and Nobilis Health; this would add another 1.9% to my RRIF portfolio.
Which of these additions would you consider to be complementary to my current holdings? or does the additional return warrant the additional risk?
Thanks,
Antoine

Hello Peter
I am trying to decide on a good dividend paying "Consumer" stock as I have very little in that general category [ie non energy, non utility, non financial], and have narrowed my choice to NWC, CSH.UN, AW.UN, and CSW.A.

How would you rank these 4 choices, and which do you think will be the best choice for me for moderate long term growth and a sustainable and growing dividend and please explain your choice?

Thank you....... Paul K
