Q: I have held PBH for 5 years now. I like the increasing dividend and have seen a small amount of capital increase as well. I just added to my position. They are forecasting an increase in sales and EBITA of 50% or so over the next 3 years. With all the capex being spent on expansions some of this should help expand the margins as well. If this all works out I expect there is a reasonable chance of good capital expansions in the future as well as the dividend increases I have been getting. Any thoughts.
Q: Good Day
I know I have an apple and an orange here but... I have a 1/2 position in CNQ and am into DOO at $100/share. I think I can get a quicker return by selling DOO and buying the other 1/2 position in CNQ. What does 5I think on as it pertains to the possibility of getting a quicker return over say the next 3 years.

Q: I have a incorporated small business with some excess cash. I am taking out a small amount every year but the bulk will not be needed in the next ten years. No new cash will be added. I was thinking of investing half in EIT.UN and half in ZSP, but both are near all time highs. I would also be fine holding a handful of individual stocks. Would you have some suggestions? Thanks!

Q: Hi Team,
Where do you see ATD going from here? I'm down 6.5% and wondering if I should sell and claim the tax loss. Would you re-buy in 30 days? If not, what would be your top 5 picks USD or CDN in the same sector?
Thanks

Q: On July 12 in response to a question regarding Co. it was stated EPS consensus calls for at least a 25% increase and that PE of 17 is still below 10 yr. average. With a substantial move lower, which I assume is on no news, can these shares be bought? Also, can you confirm the move down is on no news please? Is the move down possibly due to a move away from defensive staples? Thank you.

Q: Hello, and thank you for an informative service. In theory, what are your views on adding to a so-called expensive/highly valued stock when your original cost basis is quite low? For example, I keep reading how Dollarama is at a high premium right now. I have a lot of it, and my original cost basis is about $97. Even adding a couple thousand dollars would keep it at something like $97.50. as a general rule or idea, is it worth building on positions like this? Also, I don't know if this would be considered a second question, but if you could rank the five stocks in order to purchase today keeping in mind my original question, that would be much appreciated. Thank you again.

Q: I am wondering how often your members look at the posts in the forums section. There are a small number of us that post there fairly regularly, and I have been hoping that regular posts there would encourage more people to join in. Hasn't happened. How difficult would it be to put in a "views" feature on posts there, so that we could see how often people were even seeing the info being posted there. There is valuable stuff there - I have made over $100,000 based on stocks mentioned by others there, and the stock picks I made at the start of the year were up about 33% on average when I did a review a few weeks ago, but if people aren't using it, maybe the few of us are just having a small private conversation.
Q: Hi,
If you were to create a mini model portfolio of an FHSA with a 5-year timeline and low-risk tolerance. What would your holdings look like? (stocks & allocation %)

Q: Just curious if there is a sector that dependably moves the opposite direction to Materials? Specifically I am thinking of Nutrien, and wondering if you can identify any companies that could be expected to move inversely to their Nutrien’s share price? Having ridden them up and back down, if I am going to keep owning the company I think I would intend to trade it in the future on the next upswing if I had an “anti-Nutrien” to switch into. Thanks for your thoughts.
