Q: I had been eyeing both of these to add to a TFSA, and they have been rising steadily, especially Couche-Tarde after earnings. Which do you prefer for TFSA for 25 year old? Or, do I add a little of both? Suggested buy price? Thank you for your great work!!

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: I have a $50K bond maturing next week in a non-registered account and plan to re-deploy the cash amongst the six equity holdings already in that account for long term hold. Are there any amongst the group that I should hold-off on, or are there any that I should over-weight?

Q: Hey 5i, these consumer staple stocks have basically done nothing over the last 10yrs. They used to be a place to go when you were concerned about market pricing with a little growth and a dividend. Have things fundamentally changed or is everyone just obsessing over AI and technology and forgetting this sector. Also is there anything buyable in the sector with some growth and a dividend.

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

Q: You had recommended MUSA as a Best Stock Idea. It has dipped below $365 today. Do you still recommend this a good discretionary/cyclical name? Do you prefer others in the US? Also what would be a good entry point? Thanks

Q: I am thinking of selling my full position in TCS and investing the proceeds in ATD. This will reduce my Technology holdings to market weight and increase my Consumer Discretionary holdings to be closer to market weight. What do you think?
