Q: Hi, holding these three as my staples holdings. Current weights:

ATD - 2.44%
COST - 2.37%
PBH - 1.30%

Thinking of selling the laggard PBH and adding to ATD/COST or just maybe COST. What do you think about this? Is PBH a buy, sell, or hold? Can you compare the three in terms of valuation and which would be best going forward for growth.

Thanks!

My portfolio analytics says I'm low on Consumer Defensive. Can you give me 1-2 Canadian stock suggestions and maybe 1-2 ETFs in the US and Canada.

Q: With all the risks out there in the investing world these days it's hard for me to decide on an investing strategy that I can trust enough that I will hold equities even as they react and go down when each new risk becomes noteworthy. I've decided that the best strategy for me is to develop a list of:
1. high quality
2. inexpensive stocks
3. that pay dividends that are sustainable through difficult times.
Based on this strategy what Canadian companies would you invest in now that fit the criteria? I would appreciate 8 of your top picks.
