Q: I try to buy best in breed companies or leaders in each sector/industry with the goal of holding for the long term. With the current sell off in high growth tech stocks my buy price alerts in the above companies are starting to get triggered. During times when we get a market sell off or sector rotation, as we may be getting over the next few days or weeks, I like to only buy one or 2 positions per day in order to keep some powder dry if the sell offs continue. If I don't hold positions in any can you rank in order of what you would buy first to last and please feel free to add other companies to this list you feel are good buys. Thanks for all your help.

Q: Hi Peter and Team
Its been quite the ride around the election and I hope things can be more stable. I have quite large cash positions for my RRIF, TFSA and RESP and will be placing more contributions in Jan into the latter 2.
Can you suggest 3 CDN and 3US from your Growth or Balanced portfolios that now make good "Buys" to my well balanced portfolios ? Is this a good time to put the cash back in for the long term?
Thanks for your continuing guidance
Peter

Q: Which US and Canadian stocks do you think are the closest to "must owns" for growth investors today?
Read Answer Asked by Patrick on October 22, 2020
Q: Following up on your guidance to consider selling high-risk/high-beta stocks in anticipation of year-end volatility, would you consider LSPD and/or VEEV to be in this category? You have also suggested investors consider increasing exposure to large low-beta quality companies. I am overweight BEP/BEPC (almost 8%). Would you suggest holding the course given its size/low beta/ green focus...or trimming back to 5%? Thank you.
