Q: Hello Peter, Ryan and Team,

I have been plucking the weeds and watering the flowers. These three are my biggest losers in a taxable account down between 20% to 30% and haven't been rallying as the others. Can you make the case for both buying and selling each of these? Thank you,

Wes

Q: PBH, NFI, KXS, TSGI, GC, BNS, SIS, CCL and now TOY. Not good. It feels like, for some time now, a lot of risk but not the commensurate reward. Please comment.

Q: Hi, i’am down approximately 30%, and 50%+ on wcp. At 30% I take a look to see if it is worth holding on or just switching.
My question is would you sell any of these 4 stocks or just hang-on? Also could you give 1 or 2 alternative replacement for each ?
Thanks

Q: Currently have both these companies in an unregistered account. I’m at break even on Toy and down 25% on NFI.

I’d like to purchase one for my TFSA and sell it from the other account. Which one do you like for growth based on current valuations?

Thanks in advance,

KC

Q: Hi,

I am 100% satisfied with my 5i subscription even though I do not use all the services and use mostly the question database for my sourse of answers. I recommend you often. Keep up the great efforts. Being overweight CSU helps - thank you).
My question on New Flyer is that I have no exposure and am getting ready to press the buy button. The long term chart has shown substantial weakness since 2018, since your last report was released. Has there been and substantial change that would allter your rating or view on a purchase today. I am looking at least a 5 year hold. Thanks so much ! Jim

Q: I own all of the above in roughly equal weights in my TFSA. I am attempting to replicate your Balanced Equity Portfolio. I am also trying to get more defensive. I think I am overweight in the Info Tech sector. I am looking at a 5 year hold. I have cash to buy another position. What would your advice be - hold the cash or make a purchase. If purchase what would be your recommendation for defensive position?

Thanks for your help.

Q: Two part question, deduct as necessary. Canadian Portfolio slightly tilted towards growth and not needing funds for long time. Looking to add one Industrial name to compliment WSP and PEO (if considered an industrial). Was thinking maybe NFI but would be interested in any other suggestions.

Also looking to add a tech name to compliment KXS, and OTEX. Having a hard time finding something different that could be a core holding for long term, only criteria would be that i am not interested in PHO.

Q: I hold NFI -2.0 % weight, PHO-1.7 weight and SJ -2.9 weight. I am under water all on 3 of these stocks in my TFSA and if I was to increase the weight , should I increase all 3 or just NFI and PHO to a 3% weight.

Thanks
