Do you think we need to do something in case the market crash?

Thanks!

Q: I am aiming to have a portfolio with 2 solid companies in each of the 11 sectors. Do you feel SLF and X would be sufficient for allocation to the financial sector? Or would you suggest adding a bank (RY) to provide better diversification? Thanks in advance.

Q: With gains over the past year, I'm overweight in these holdings - BAM 7%, BEP 12%, BIP 8%. I'm not uncomfortable with BAM and BIP but BEP is high.
Do you think there is more short-term upside in either BEP or BIP due to the addition of corporate structures?
What overall weighting would you recommend for these 3 companies and do you have a preference for any - these would be long-term holdings (8-10 years) in an income focused portfolio?
If trimming is recommended, what are your top 3 recommendations for reliable and growing dividend paying stocks, sector not being an issue?
Thank you
Ian
