Q: Retired, dividend-income investor who usually has ALL of my cash at work. I am currrently sitting on roughly 2.5% cash and am considering topping up the above holdings to achieve my asset allocation targets.

Q#1 = Assuming a diversified portfolio, if I wanted to deploy my remaining minor amount of cash, in what order would you spend it and why?

My view is as follows:
First = PBH and WSP (good value right now = fundamentals and technicals look good, if you ignore the death crosses).
Second = ZRE (should do ok in a rising rate environment?).
Third = XIT (wait until at least the first interest rate increase has happened?).
Last = ADW.A (may need another quarter or two to get past the Covid impact).

Q#2 = or should I continue to sit on this cash if you think there are better opportunities coming in the future. It's not as if this minor amount of $ is going to make a huge impact on future performance.

Thanks...Steve

Q: CSTL has doubled their sales force, advanced commercialization of its flagship DecisionDx-Melanoma test, and they acquired Cernostics - an early-stage diagnostic company, plus they have $300 mil in cash. The stock price is off 70% on a company that looks to have sold fundamentals. Could I have your assessment of this being a buy scenario?

Q: In the past you have recommend ~5% towards energy. With everything going on with the O&G market and demand picture skewing positively can I assume it is okay to let this portion of a portfolio grow beyond that mark before rebalancing?

At what percentage of a portfolio would you suggest as a good ballpark to start trimming?

Added to this sector last fall and it has crept up accordingly.

Thank you.
