Q: Over the past several months I have gone to 60% cash.
I have only 3 banks & 2 telecoms left in account.
Thinking now would be a good time to start getting back in.

If you had to buy any 3 Canadian stocks for a 63 year old conservative investor which 3 would you buy.

Thank you as always for wisdom.

Q: Peter, crude oil is below $40 but yet the gasoline price near where I live in Toronto is still around $1/litre. This gasoline price is the same as when oil was around $80 or so. What am I missing? Why the gasoline price doesn't come down. Thanks for the insights.

Q: Team, wonderful service.

I see you suggested GXC or FXI when asked about China ETFs. What are your thoughts regarding CQQQ or YAO as alternatives ? Thank you very much. Have a great holiday season. Nancy

Q: Good Afternoon: My question is really currency related rather than Visa specifically. I own a few US stocks including Visa which fortunately for me I purchased when there was not as much difference between the US and Canadian dollar. As a result of stock performance and the difference in currency valuation I have done well. I would like to make a few more US purchases but cant make myself do so with the almost 40% hit. In my opinion some time in the future our dollar will get stronger. Do you have any suggestions or can you recommend Canadian companies or ETF's that I can buy without being so concerned about the currency. Thank You.

Q: RBC has a Top Pick rating on this stock. It continues to implode. Is it year end selling or is there some other underlying cause. I've averaged down based on RBC rating but it's continuing to drop. Thoughts ??

Q: Hi Peter & team:
I own CF.PR.A and RON.PR.A (along with a couple of others) which are preferred the rates of which will be reset in March and September 2016, which explain in part why they down so much. These are part of the income portion of my portfolio, so I am still fine in staying in that space. My question is whether I should be worried about the credit risk of those two specific names. Would it make sense to switch to other beaten down resets with a better credit risk, such as BCE or FTS? If so, would you have suggestions. Thanks.

Q: Hi Team. I recently purchased Costco to add to my U.S. holdings. BMO (Ford Equity research) just downgraded to a SELL saying Cost will underperform the market over the next 6 to 12 months. May I have your take! It is 2.65% of my total PF and dropping into the red. Thank you ahead of time and because of you I have been able to shave some "winners" from my TFSA (which is up over 70% since April 2014) and pay down my Line of Credit. MERRY CHRISTMAS
