Q: I am looking at fixed income potential across sectors as a low risk offset to my equities and would appreciate your recommendations. It doesn’t look like the space has good future prospects overall with rates having just dropped.
Of notable options, high interest saving accounts, bond funds, utilities, dividend index’s and perhaps reits, the reits and dividend indexes have superior yields.
Could you please comment on the space overall, which sectors are advisable and possible suggestions for purchase please?

Q: Good morning;

I am doing some rebalancing of my portfolio. In light of my views on world events over the next 3-5 years I am looking for the top 3 "Consumer Defensive" stocks. I believe there to be risk in the US dollar over this period so would appreciate your recommendations on 3 Canadian and 3 American consumer defensive stocks and what makes them a consideration.

As always, thanks for your insights!

Q: From a technical standpoint, I see that NWC had been within a fairly consistent rising 18-year stock price channel. Roughly May 2024, the price shot above the upper resistance of that channel and has been above that (rising) line ever since.

Question: Do you know of any fundamental change at the company that would justify the elevated stock price since May 2024? Were there some sort of positive changes within the company?

Q: I bought NWC in 2021 for $33 and subsequently sold it. I am interested in buying it again, although the price has increased significantly and yesterday closed at $49.

Is this still a good company for a long-term hold? I am looking for a healthy company with good share price appreciation prospects and a decent dividend.

Also, what would you consider a good entry price? Thank you.
