Q: I hold 5 Growth Portfolio 5iR position as noted above.....that I've held for some time.
I've decided to fold them into my Income and Balance Portfolios rather than track the group separately. The reason is to better manage the position weightings. Although these 5 are more growth-er positions, I'm really more a 70/30 balance/income investor...and closely follow the 5iR positions and weightings.
Now for my question - what weightings would you give each of ECN and GSY in an income portfolio, and also for each of DOL, OTEX, PEO and SHOP in a balanced portfolio?
.......again, thanks for your guidance......Tom
Q: GSY just reported. It has been growing earnings at a rate of 24% per annum for the past 5 years, pays a 2.3% rising dividend and seems to have reasonably good management. Why is it not a $100 stock? No, seriously why is not a $100 stock?? I've owned it for a few years now and I'm not complaining. I've done very well with it. But I really don't get the valuation. What is the unspoken issue?
Thank you.
