Q: I would like to add some companies to my portfolio that pay dividends which are relatively secure and have debt levels that you think are manageable. I'd go so far as to say low debt levels, but that might exclude some companies that you think can manage a bit more debt. If possible, it would be helpful if you could suggest 6 Canadian and 6 American companies that fit the above criteria. Thanks as always for your valued opinion.

Q: Hello

I would like to have your outlook on both BDX and SYK for a long term hold.
BDX has been trading sideways for months. Do you see the stock outperforming by the end of 2021?
SYK - how do you see the company performing? Do you see surgeries picking up with covid cases decreasing ? Is it a good stock to keep ?

thank you

Q: I own Air Canada and Cargo Jet and have done very well on both. With Air Canada expanding its Cargo's operation substantially, I wonder if owning both really makes sense. Do you think that replacing CJT with TFII, operating in a different segment of the logistic industry, would be a good/better move?
thanks for your help!

Q: Do you think there is a possibility Canadian Natural Resources and Tourmaline will increase their dividends sometime in the next 12 months given the amount of free cash flow each seems to be generating at current commodity prices? Or continue aggressively paying down debt? I am also particularly interested in your comments on Tourmaline's earnings release yesterday and what you see for CNQ earnings release.

Q: On Yahoo finance today at 11:32 adt, it show a volume spike of 52.9K. On the TSX site under "Trading History" for the same time, there is no indication of that many shares being traded, not even close. On my Questrade "Time and Sales" it's not there either. I thought volume on bar charts where actual traded shares, if this is not the case, is what I'm seeing on Yahoo the level of Ask and Buys, but not actual trades? Thanks,

Q: Hi Peter,
CIBC launches depository receipts for shares in US companies. The first to launch was amazon.com CDR NEO: AMZN-NE on the NEO exchange.
The shares are hedged to the Cdn dollar.
For Amazon with a cost per share of $3,622 US the cost per share on the NEO is 22.86 Cdn.
CIBC will be launching more of CDRs for more US companies in the next days. What is your take on this method of buying into US companies without spending a lot of US dollars?
Thanks
Ron
