Thanks

Each of these stocks represent between 2-3 1/2 % of my

None are at a loss.
Any thoughts of an order to do this?
Thx

Q: I currently own full positions in BEP.UN and BIP.UN in a diversified dividend income portfolio. I have considered buying BN as well, but am not sure that increasing my Brookfield concentration is warranted. What are your views?
Thanks.

Q: Hello,

I'm hoping you might be able to steer me towards several suitable, longer term, investments.

If you were assembling a portfolio of equity investments today, from which you REQUIRED an overall average yield of at least 4%, with a further need for that yield to either keep pace with or to outpace the rate of inflation in coming years; which 5 Canadian and which 5 USA equities would you select to include within your portfolio?

1) Independent of any consideration of a desire for diversity of sector?

2) If diversity were to be considered to be of importance?

Please deduct as many question credits as you feel may be appropriate.

Thank you!
