Q: Peter and Co., AQN is seeing considerable selling pressure. I am cosidering adding to my position for recession protection and selling some of my overweighting in energy stocks. I am a bit cautious as the stock is falling. Also, REFINITIV's analysis gives AQN an overall rating of '5' on a 10 scale. fundamentals rate a '3', valuation a' 1' and momentum a '3'.
Do you have concerns about these low rating? At what price would you see AQN as a great buy?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: What is your opinion of the Canadian banks at this time . I currently own XEB in the open, RRIF and TFSA- approximately 20% of my entire holdings.
I'm considering buying one the banks in my open account for income and average growth, but not sure which one. I would appreciate your recommendation.
thanks

Q: I sold out of all my PXT around $30 since it had a nice run but more impotantly the in coming president in Columbia is very anti-oil even though his name is Petro (kind of ironic). I have not been able to find any recent news as to whether the new president is going to follow through an policies that are not extraction industry friendly (Even though they are one of the few bright spots in the world economy in 2022). Is there anything on your radar about PXT and the Columbia geopolitical situation? I like PXT because of its net cash on the balance sheet and that is profitable even with WTI in the mid 40"s but government intervention by Latin American governments can destroy a lot of share holder value. What's your take on PXT?

Q: My portfolio is significantly over-weight tech and currently paying the price. Semi's (AMD, NVDA, SMH) had propped me up but not anymore. That's the bad news, good news is i have a sizable portion of cash to deploy. Over the next few months, where would you suggest deploying new cash? Which stocks, etf's, or sectors have been unjustly hit the hardest?
The rest of my portfolio is anchored by XIU, BAM, BIP, ENB, CNQ, etc.

Q: Hello:

With some coaching my older sons (aged 15 & 17) have come to realize that money sitting in a bank account is losing value due to inflation. They have taken small positions in ZQQ which appeals to their interests and the market has declined a bit but the silver lining is that they learn patience and understand risk.

With part-time jobs they have some more cash to deploy. Of course CAD holdings are easier but what would you pick? A few I think of:

BAM.A - Canadian and should see stable growth.
SLF - Canadian, but too conservative?
COST - USD is messier with FX fees but also very stable growth.
GOOG - USD again, but is it still considered cheap?

Other options?

Thank you!
