Q: I have a quarter position in OTEX in a TFSA. I'm interested in Companies that pay Dividends and I find it challenging to find Tech Co's which fit that category, so I'm not sure whether to keep it, buy more or sell it. You had taken it out of your balanced portfolio, so wondering how you consider it. Does it still have some growth potential, so worth the lower Dividend? (I prefer Co's that have a 3-4% Div). I already have 1/2 positions in SYZ and CSCO. If you think it should be replaced, what other Dividend Tech Co's do you like? Thanks.

Q: CSU has outperformed TOI over this past year. The trading of shares (CSU to TOI) has proven unprofitable. Given where they are, does this represent the relative bargain between the two? Would you trade CSU for the other today?

Q: Hi,
What do you think of MTTR’s earnings release? The market seems to like it, for now anyway, but it is a risk on day. While it has negative cash flow, with over $500M cash and equivalents and no debt, is that likely sufficient to fund it until it starts making a profit?
Thanks again.

Q: I got caught in the recent drop with too much US tech. I have positions in these companies, all down more than 50%. I don't need to consolidate, but could if it means a stronger recovery. Looking toward a recovery in the market, do you see any holdings that have a lesser chance of recovery, that should be sold to add to another position that has a better chance of recovery? Thanks!

Q: Some time ago i asked a question regarding the merits of holding a handful of us stocks along with my US etf’s, in order to get a little extra boost. You were ok with the strategy but cautioned against the kind of stocks I held i.e. Google, nvidia, msft, Costco, abbivie. While they were good stocks you said that the problem is that they are well represented in the various etf’s and that if i wanted a “kicker” to provide boost that I should go smaller in size. I wonder if you could provide a handful of stocks that would fit that criterion and would be ones that one would want to own long term. If they were also good candidates for selling options on that would be an added bonus. Thanks for your expertise and advice.

Thank you
