Q: Hit "enter" to fast on my last question. Looking for some ideas with the understanding you can't offer direct recommendations. I have 40 K to add to my non-reg account. I have full positions in all the pipelines, OLY, GWO, BNS, CU, NPI, BIR, PEY, TPZ, CNQ, PRL and BMO. I have no need for any income for at least five years, not opposed to going overweight if necessary, have lots of higher yielders so would perhaps benefit from some choices with capital gain and dividend growth potential versus just high yield.

Q: Greetings 5i team,
I hold the securities listed above, as well as a couple of more stable ETFs and some cash in my TFSA. I am aware that things are going to be volatile at least for the near future but am wondering in what order an investor might deploy cash to any of these securities given the correction we are experiencing.
Thank you
Steve P

Q: We've been reading of lots of deregulation coming in the U.S generally, but especially in the financial sector. Pundits have taken to saying 'animal spirits will be unleashed'. Additionally, I wonder if orange imperialism will tend to trickle down to C suites. Can you suggest a Canadian name or two in relevant sectors that might be more likely to be taken out?
(With the proviso that their debt levels be on the low side for sector average.)
Deduct as you see fit.
Thank You,
Tim
