Q: I am a conservative, retired, dividend-income investor. I normally save up to 5% "full positions" for typical blue chip stocks, like the telecoms, pipelines, banks, etc.

I have partial positions in Leon's (2% position), Magna (2%) and Nutrien (1.5%). Would you add to any or all of these? At this stage in the market cycle, would you favour one over the rest...please rank.

Thanks...your guidance throughout 2019 was much appreciated...love the service.

Q: Needless to say, as a shareholder since the 1980's, I was less than pleased to see the LEON family trust battles as front page news in Saturday's Fin Post. I suppose this sort of issue was inevitable, but it should really have no effect on day to day operations, correct? It's a "quiet" stock to begin with and now I know why the share price has been languishing, but it just enhances my DRIP's.
