Q: I realize this is quite Apple and oranges. In a taxable account I have held J&J for a long time so have a nice gain. Not much growth happening right now. Your thoughts on a change to CNQ for a better dividend and more growth potential? Thank you

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have followed this company for some time and considering wether I should buy it. I think it is inexpensive but not sure if it is a value trap...if you know what I mean and I know you do. Please give me your opinion on this company and what is the risk factor! Thanks your expertise is always helpful in my decisions.

Q: Hello,

I understand Warren Buffett recently purchased OXY and I was wondering if you might share a rationale that would favor this stock versus CNQ, TOU,IMO or other CAD producers trading at approx. equally low 52 week levels, with higher mkt cap, dividends and dividend growth.

Thank you and all the best to you and your families in 2025.

Q: You recently said that TSU has been frustrating and is a Hold. How would you rate holding it vs exchanging for EQB? Or maybe there is a better financial? There are no tax implications.

Thanks.

Q: Dividend investor interested in long-term dividend growth. I know you like both TIH and BAM. I can only initiate a position in one of these today, which gets the slight nod today? For long-term hold.

Thank you.

Q: We are at equal weight, full positions [2 O&G stocks, 2 midstream]. Our goals are dividend growth, some capital appreciation. My question is whether we should overweight midstream over O&G stocks given 1. macro/ political [Trump tariff threat and preference for lower O&G prices], and 2. data centre demand.

Q: I am only interested in holding Canadian Long Term Compounders. I am looking for companies with decent ROIC, ROE and good balance sheets and preferably owner/operators with skin in the game. In the Canadian space of my portfolio I hold CSU, ATD and TFII. My question is could you provide to me 10 small and mid cap Canadian names that you would feel would make the best long term compounders to hold for at least 5-10 years.

Q: Operating metrics (FCF, ROE, margins, etc.) for PAYX seem quite strong - it seems to be an asset-light business, dividend grower and compounder. However, it's at the same price as 3 years ago and has been underperforming the S&P for the same period. Am I missing something? What are your thoughts for PAYX and is it worthwhile for initiating a position at some level you would suggest?
