Q: BANK OF MONTREAL 1.81% NON CUM 5YR RT RST CL B PFD SER 25
BMO.PR.Q
How do rate reset like THIS horrible thing work? How does value react to interest rate changes? Specifically, is the above security, which is down substantially, worth keeping now that it has already lost much value? OR are the funds better deployed elsewhere if one is conservative and looking for Canadian dollar income, preferably dividend?

Q: My portfolio is weak in the medical/healthcare space. I have CSH/SIA (full position when combined), NVO (US, 1/2 position), SIS ( 1/2 position) and GUD (1/4 position). I would like to increase exposure in the sector by the equivalent of about 2 positions. Would you recommend I add to existing stocks or are there others you think I should consider (either Cdn or US is fine for this sector)?

My situation: Retiring in about 2 years and living off investment income. Fortunately we have enough savings that unless I am either foolish or really unlucky, I expect to be "OK".

Thanks for your help. I am doing much better with returns since I started my subscription to your service.

Q: Greetings. Latest results look improved. Is the worst behind them and do you think this is a reasonable investment at this stage. I currently own WSP global but am looking to add another position. With the questionable action on Aecon and Stantec's results, SNC seems to be a better option with more global exposure.
Your thoughts.

Q: If I wanted to invest in a theme where the real US economy begins to see robust growth from the benefit of the Trump admin's policies that benefit the working class and domestic economic activity, are there any US stocks that you could suggest that may benefit from such a scenario?
