Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I am mostly (90%) invested in US markets . (Had desperately wanted to allocate 30% to Canadian , but have done horribly on every Canadian stock I bought ( ENB, GUD, ALA) .Therefore , for next couple of months I have gone back to buying US , when markets dip. To take advantage of the dips , I keep cash reserve. That reserve was reduced somewhat as stocks fainted last week. This is a what-if question about raising cash for next big dip.
Question: I hold both PRu.us and MET.us. Which one (IF ANY) would you sell to add to cash reserve (there being no urgent need). Between PRU and MET if you like one a lot less than the other, your reasoning would be most helpful.

Q: Any new information on this stock since the last question/answer? Would you consider this a buy at this time and if so what level of risk on a scale of 1 to 10? Do you feel the dividend is fairly safe and if so will the stock price will grow into 10 percent dividend. Is there an active investor involved? Lastly, do you see this stock getting some momentum in the next year or is it a long term play. Please deduct as many credits as you need to.
Thanks
