Q: Hold a modest amount of funds in trust for our 2 children. With a 5 year timeline, does a switch from BOS to SIS make sense in spite of recent changes in momentum for the 2 companies?
Q: Cintas has been very good to me but I am seeing comments recently that it is currently very much overpriced and will probably take a serious hit with the first sign of bad news. I believe it is a great company but I am thinking it may be time to move on. What is your opinion of holding on to this stock vs. putting a close stop loss on it?
Q: Am interested in buying another gold stock. I already own KL and have done well on your recommendation. I am interested in WDO. I would like your thoughts on this company. Or do you have another you feel is a better choice?
Thanks John
Q: Is there any difference / benefit of holding these in a TFSA vs RRSP (tax wise). I understand the favorable tax treatment to US stocks in an RRSP via withholding tax. What about ETFs that trade on the TSX but hold US stocks?
Q: Of the 5 mining Co's, which one would you say is most globally diversified with best growth prospects, if the world doesnt hiccup too badly with current trade rhetoric ? Or maybe, a Co. not mentioned, I know Teck is the largest-diversified, but maybe another has more torque to the upside of a particular metal, maybe gold/ lithium miner ? I'm seeking Cdn competitive advantage with U.S dollar revenues.
Q: I have been a holder of GIL for several years now and it has basically gone sideways. I hold about a 1/2 position. I am down about $200 and am thinking it’s about time to move on. Any suggestions of what would be a good replacement?
Thanks for much appreciated advice.

With all of the latest rhetoric about trade wars between the US and a lot of countries I have lightened my stock portfolio from about 97% to about 75% with the remainder in cash. I have in the last few years worked hard to get the increase in my RRSPs value. I am looking to put the cash into something that provides the following:
1. Quick access if necessary to re-invest again when I feel the time is right.
2. No loss of the capital with what the cash is put into.
3. Maximum rate of return for the above two criteria being met. I know it will not be high.
Is there a Money Market ETF or something similar that meets my three criteria. Because the cash is in my RRSP accounts I can’t take it out without paying tax on it which I do not want to do.
Q: With trade tariffs and uncertainty in the markets what Is the wise move with russel metals, hold or sell? I have a large position so would not be interested in buying more. I hold it in my RRSP for the yield. If you suggest a sell what could replace it considering I also hold BCE, BMO, HR.UN, NVU.UN as well as 4 small caps for growth but no dividends.

Q: Bird Construction is trading at a low point in the price channel. Fundamentals aren't great but it might be setting up for a short term profitable trade. Agree or ?
