Q: My financial holdings are TD, BNS, BMO, MFC and SLF. With the recent surge in the banks I am looking to rebalance back to a 50/50 split between banks and insurance companies. If you were to add a third insurance company, which would it be? Or should I add a non-bank/insurance company like BAM or X which is still classified as financial? I am only interested in large cap, dividend-paying stocks.

Q: I’m a62 year old retired investor with an excellent DB Pension and I’m working on a supplemental cash flow with my TFSAs,I have held the above stocks for about 4 years all roughly 10-12K in value and have been set up as DRIPs
My question is could you recommend another 8-10 Cdn dividend stocks($ 100K of room) I would add to this account coming from another TFSA,these could possibly have 4-6 % capitol growth and 4-6% dividend yield and in 3 years I would go from a DRIP to monthly or quarterly cash payments,I am medium risk and the sectors would not matter ….Thanks Greg

Q: Besides CNR, NWC, TIH, and BN, I'm looking for 5 other quality Canadian companies that have at least somewhat of a moat, and are resistant to AI and other types of disruptions to their businesses. I'm looking for companies that are not technology, banks, pipelines, materials or the other Brookfields. Can you please help? By the way, if you do not agree with the four I've listed, you can also let me know.

Q: Firstly, I very much appreciate your tax loss, selling list and the explanations that came with it.

I am down about 22% on both BCE and GSY. Would either or both be appropriate for a tax loss/re-buy strategy?

On PSI, X, and TSU I am down about 6 1/2%. Is it worth considering these for the same strategy, or am I just being silly?


Thank you very much for your help.

Gary

Q: Good morning, could you please identify 8 "safer" companies you see at or close to the bottom of their trough at this time that have a dividend (% of dividend does not matter)? For example my guess would be CNR which was at $178 in March 2024 and now at $135 with a yield of 2.63% at this price.
Thx,
Kevin
