Q: Dear Sirs,
I am looking for 5 companies(Canadian and US ) that you feel would weather a good sized market correction well. I understand that the US is not a primary focus but would appreciate any names you feel comfortable suggesting as part of a grouping of 5 to 10 names. As an aside , would you view a holding of Berkshire Hathaway as meeting the above criteria.

With thanks

Q: Hi. I currently hold a 5% weighting in each of the above companies. I would like to reduce my exposure in this sector to 10%. Which would you think best to unload... or would you suggest reducing bits of each.

Thanks in advance.

Q: Which do you think would be the better investment as far as growth and stability (and yes, I know they're often mutually exclusive desires). I already hold WC in a US account and was considering buying more, but would I be better off with WM?

Q: Hi 5i,
Suppose the US moves into more significant inflation and begins to battle the strength of its own dollar. So rates ‘normalize’ but inflation goes ‘above target.’ I am thinking about how to adjust one’s portfolio for that environment. I guess gold and real return bonds (and TIPS) may be obvious inclusions but I am wondering about equities in general and what kind of equities, if any, can actually do well in an ‘above target’ inflation environment. How would you increase/decrease sector weightings? Could you identify a stock or two in some specific sectors that you think would be good to own in that picture? Is this topic something you’d consider blogging about at some point? Thanks!
