Q: Hello.
We have a total of about 3.6M spread in different brokerages, with a lot of deadwood. Too many positions, some of which I would like to clear and make way for refocus, I 'd like to initiate a position in MDA. would 3-5% be a good range, with goal to bring my total holdings to around 30. Would you buy it all at once.

Q: Hi guys,

I have a decent gain on BEP.UN of approximately 15%. It is touching 52 week highs and I'm trying to raise a bit of cash given that the market has done very well since the correction. With interest rates rising in 2015 (possibly) and the realization that interest rate sensitive stocks would get hurt before rates actually rise, do you think its a good idea to sell BEP.UN and move up the ranks to Brookfield Asset Management on a pullback?

Thanks for your advice,
Jason

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
I own CN.
I sold TFI in July (35% profit in 1 year) when it spiked after announcing its intention to acquire CSS. I also sold WTE in July (100% profit + dividends in 4 years) because of the poor outlook for coal.
I'm thinking of re-entering the trucking business: back with TFI? (perhaps I should not have sold it) or TMA? or MTL?
Seeking your guidance.

Thanks!

Q: I'd like your opinion on Chartwell REIT (CSH.UN). Both it and Lesureworld (LW) have performed extremely well in the last 12 months, especially if you consider the dividends/distributions they provide and how safe/stable they should be.
I currently only own CSH.UN, and it represents about 10% of my overall portfolio. Would you maintain an overweight position or sell half and buy LW? Do you think the sector is overbought? I'm almost 35, and am ok with taking on some risk.
