Overall my Canadian bank weighting is over 20% of my portfolio, mostly a result of inheriting my father's income portfolio. I want to trim my overall weighting, which bank(s) would you trim.

Q: Any news regarding the TMX group today to account for its +2.63% move. The China tariffs news today had zero impact on its shares. Normally, market volatility hurts TMX Group's share price but today it was essentially a slow and steady climb to finish the day 2 cents off its all time high.

Thanks for your thoughts.
