Q: Hello,

The following 5 companies are on my buy list to complete my portfolio:

PBH
TOY
NFI
BCE
CAR.UN

I have room for two in my TFSA, two in my non-registered and one in my RRSP. How should I divide the above 5 stocks into these accounts?

My plan is to buy on pullbacks. But I'm thinking about buying CAR.UN now because it has already pulled back on the mortgage news. Does this make sense?

Q: this is a comment not a question, I just read your response on nfi about it's share price drop. last nite i received a notice from td that nfi is issuing a prospectus secondary offering on a bought deal basis at $40.40 expecting to close sept 27. I assume these will be the shares from the said seller. why kick investors in the teeth to the tune of 5% when the stock has been averaging higher prices.

Q: Hi, Can you please comment on Marco Polo sale of 4.5 mln shares on a privately arranged bought deal. (Any idea of the price?) I understand that they still will own 6.5 mln shares. This is the 1st and largest shareholder deciding to monetize a sizable portion of their holding on the heels of the company's 2nd largest private equity shareholder slowly and contantly offloading large blocks of their shares over past 6-9 months. Is there a theme here? New Jersey issue is still an overhang. What are your thoughts ? Thanks

Q: Do all above companies fall under Industrial? My total weight is 13% Is this too high? I feel that I have too many companies in this sector and may be better to have only 4-5? STN and WSP are similar so would it be better to sell one of these and add to the names that are listed. I am also thinking of selling ET and taking the proceeds to add to the other names now leaving me with 5. Is this a good approach?

Thanks
Dolores

Q: I have held ATS for almost 3 years with a capital gain of 13%. I would like to see a larger gain in the future but note the fall in order bookings & backlog. Do you think this is a sign of future problems ? Do you think ATS is worth continuing to hold or are there other companies that you would favour. Other Industrial sector holdings are BOS, LNR, CJT, WSP, DRT, XTC, KBL.
Thank you as always.
