Q: I currently own in my RRSP the following stocks : GUD, KXS, SLF, SIS, AQN (1/2) and FTS (1/2). I have 6K$ that I would like to add to only two or three of those stocks to avoid too much trading costs.
I have a longterm timeframe (20years +) for my RRSP and am diversified across my other accounts.
I was thinking of KXS, SLF and SIS first, but utilities also look quite cheap to me these days.
What would be your selection? I'd rather not add a new position to avoid having to many...

Q: A recent article in the Globe was citing an RBC analyst as saying it was time to go underweight on tech stocks.
I have the following weightings in my portfolio -
ENGH - 6% ; SYZ, KXS and DSG 4% each.
Do you see any of these as being seriously overvalued? I have very good gains on all and have taken profits on all except KXS as they have moved up.
Any comments are appreciated.

Q: Hi,
I had PLI in my TFSA as of yesterday. I sold it at an 80% loss. Is there any one good growth company that I can replace it with that would regain my losses? It's the only stock in my TFSA and it's a small position.
Thanks

Q: I currently have positions in Kinaxis and Constellation with allocations of 4.28% and 2.07% respectively. Would it be advantageous to reverse the allocations. Selling Kinaxis would involve taking a large capital gain.

Thank you for the great service.

Q: Good afternoon:
From an income investor's point of view, could you provide recommendations of your favorite 7 to 10 companies each of which have little to no debt?
As a second question, could you also provide your top 3 to 5 growth company names, again with little or no debt.
Thank you
Ian

Q: KXS had a media day yesterday, do you know if they did an update on the contract with Toyota? To me that is likely a "company maker" deal. I have been after them for an update (since the deal was announced two months ago) but their IR department seems to think that is some sort of "state secret" and just read off a scripted non answer that said absolutely nothing when I contacted them.

Do you by any chance have more information to share on the Toyota deal? Thanks.

Q: Hi team,

I'm putting money towards my TFSA (10K) and was wondering what you think would be the best way to invest it. I was considering starting with 5 stocks: PBH, SIS, CSU, KXS, TOY. My second thought was choosing 2-3 of those stocks and adding in ETF's. Thirdly, I was thinking to invest investing fully into ETF's. I would say that I'm in between balanced and growth in terms of risk.

What are your thoughts? And if the ETF route, which would you recommend?

Thanks in advance,

Jon
