Q: I have some American cash that I would like to put to work but am hesitant to buy American stocks. I know there are Canadian companies that are listed in the United States. My question is, which Canadian companies that are listed in the U.S. would you buy today, based on the belief that they have the most upward potential for 2020. I would appreciate it if you could suggest 5 or 6 companies.

Q: Hi 5i,
My BEP holding is up 70% and represents 5.2% of my portfolio. I see you are recommending trimming in your model portfolio. I was considering a trim sometime this year but I was thinking it would make sense to wait for the "free" new company shares that are being allocated later this year (1 for every 4 shares). Does this thinking make sense?

Q: WEF and Steelworkers have reached a tentative agreement and the stock has reacted accordingly, currently reaching the top of its trading range over the past six months. However, of other forest product stocks, only ADN seems to be improving; is most of WEF's appreciation potential (for, say, the next year) baked-in now?
