Q: I have owned this fund for a few years now and enjoy the high percent payout but am concerned as the price I payed is considerablely higher than the present price. are the overnight offerings diluting the funds or is this because the banks are lower right now or perhaps both? some of my costs were over $12.00 a share so is this a good time to cut my losses? Thankx for your great service. gord

Q: According to the Asset Allocator, I am considerably underweight in the financial sector. I hold the above stocks, and they are about 3% of my portfolio [balanced income]. I hold a lot of cash at the moment. What would you recommend that I add, to increase my weighting in this sector to the recommended 17%. I am 72 with pensions, and do not need the income.
Kind regards, and thank you for all you do.

Q: I currently own a combined 25% share in Canadian financials. I love the dividend, but I know it is heavy and I am concerned about the negative news I read about the banks. Is the future really that bleak for the banks. Thanks.

Q: I am finding your 'Portfolio Analytics' to be an outstanding service. The imbalances within my portfolios are abundantly clear.
I am overweight financials with
TD - 3.55%
JPM - 5.19%
BAC - 6.77%
GSY - 1.29%
CXI - 0.71%
All stocks show a decent profit except for CXI which is down 23%.
I have fairly high risk tolerance and I look for reasonable growth. I would appreciate your recommendations on how to reduce my financials by approximately 3%
