Q: Here is a simple question for you. When determining an amount that a particular equity has for the percentage of my portfolio, do I use the total value of my portfolio including the fixed income part, or just the equity part? For example, if the total portfolio is $100,000 including fixed income and I have a 60/40 split of equity /fixed, is a 5% position $5,000 or $3,000?
Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: I have held a position in CSH.UN for a long time. I recognize that the share price growth will be slow, but its distribution growth is frustratingly slow.
I'm not looking to hit a homerun. I'm looking for stability and really my main focus is distribution growth as I plan to hold long term.
I am looking to add to my REIT holdings. Are there other REITs you would suggest or should I add to CSH?
Kind thanks for your time and expertise.

Q: Your last report on this company had FWD EV/EBITDA at about 13. What is that ratio now? I am concerned the stock has appreciated well past its fair value and is due for a sharp correction.

The 5 year chart shows an incredible change in trend starting in 2019. I have rarely seen this type of chart continue higher.

I am considering selling the position and buying back in $5 or $10 lower. Is this getting too cute or prudent profit taking.

Q: My son's company offers a matching contribution of 2.5% into either an rrsp or tfsa. His current salary is approximately 65000. The company already has a defined benefit plan which is tax deductible. Should he choose a rrsp or tfsa? He has 30 years before he can retire. What do you think would be an appropriate plan of action?
