Q: Hi Peter & Team,

I need a few stocks that pay dividends for my kids accounts, each child has 5k to purchase 2 stocks. I have narrowed it down to these few names ( because of asset mix in their accounts) but ultimately my kids will choose. One is in a TFSA and the other is a cash account because of age. Could you please give an argument to the ones you favor ?

Thank you for the great service!

Dave

Q: Hi Peter & team,

I call this a Quicksand Market cause it seems like every other week my portfolio sinks just a little bit but I know the more I move around the faster it will sink.

I own high quality companies with good growth (ALA, AYA, BAD, HCG, GS, AQC, STN just to name a few) but its hard to sit on your hands and do nothing. I'm sure other investors feel the same way. Any advise or insight that would be helpful?

I always appreciate your reassuring perspective.

Thanks

Q: Hi,
I currently have no healthcare exposure. I would to allocate 10% of my portfolio to healthcare. My question is would you put together your own mini etf of Canadian companies or purchase an etf like IBB? I was leaning towards my own. What companies would you suggest to construct my own. A mix of large and small companies would be great.
