Q: Good morning guys. Looking for your thoughts on earnings report today. Looks like a beat all around. Have been a little frustrated with stock price not participating in most recent rally. Also concerned about effect of physical distancing on funeral revenue. Thinking about stepping out of the stock for bit and maybe revisiting it again post Covid. Always appreciate your insight. Thanks. Chris

Q: I am following this company. its competitors are Visa , MasterCard and American Express. In last 4-5 years its ROE is around plus-minus 25 on average, increased dividend constantly, buys its share every year. Is these are good sign to invest in it as its price has fallen almost 40 to 45% from its peak. Could it be a good value play compared to V-N, MA-N, AXP-N? Your thoughts about this company.
Thanks

Q: Good morning with the increased sabre rattling from the Trump administration against China my mind goes to what if we end up in a trade standoff.

Thanks David

Q: From other answers to members' questions it seems you feel PPL is a strong Canadian company. Just want to make sure before I take an initial position, keeping the current situation regarding oil in the world in mind, that it's dividend looks safe and it's debt level is manageable. Also, do you think there is a reasonable chance for capital gains in the short and long term? Thanks again for your guidance.

Q: Hi,
I'm trying to create a well balanced bond fund for that portion of my portfolio and have come up with this: HFR-T, CBO-T, CLF-T, TLT, XBB-T, CVD-T, SHY, FLOT, IVOL, BNDX, VSG-T
I guess I should have something that will generate monthly income as well? If I am overdoing this, please let me know...it seems like a lot of holdings. Is there a better way? A mutual fund?
Thanks.
