Q: In a response to a comment of TFSA's you mentioned that the TFSA should be used for growth and not safety. Of course I have a GIC ladder to the tune of $50,000 over 5 years in both our TFSA accounts. Should I take them out of the TFSA accounts? If I do what would be the suggested replacements? Or should I just continue with growth stocks in the upcoming years leaving everything as is? We are in our 70's with 50/50 equity/fixed.

Q: Saputo has shown downward momentum since Trump's inauguration. Supposing this risk were overblown, then one would expect the stock price to be 'cheap', but the current price is pretty-much what the long-term trend-line would predict. Put another way: if the price is only now touching the trend-line, does that imply that the Trump factor isn't fully baked-in yet - which, in turn, suggests further declines?

Q: Good morning Peter et al. I have $68K in a rrsp and $80K In a cash account to invest. A full position in each account is $20K. Time frame is 3 to 5 years. I have full positions in other accounts of shop,pbh,gud,nfi,sis, and toy. My thought was to add Boyd, CAE in each. I also have 1/2 position in Photon. Can you give me some direction on what else to add other than going bluechip defensive.
Thanks in advance david

Q: I'm helping my 65-year-old mother reallocate some funds (mostly diversifying and ditching debilitated oil stocks and mutual funds). Using about 3% of her funds, she would like to make a tech purchase (her first) for a long-term investment (5+ years) aiming at growth for this particular position. Following your recommendations, we are considering (a) Constellation (CSU), (b) Kinaxis (KXS) or (c) a mix of both. These are two great stocks and this is a nice moment to buy tech in general, but which of these three scenarios would be best right now?

Q: Rsi is currently taking over LBMaple Treat and as a result is offering common shares at 5.90 and a debenture at 5 percent. For a riff account that is interested capital preservation over growth and a good income what do you think of these 2 offerings? Do you prefer one over the other, and do you think this is a good acquisition of the company. Lastly, how vulnerable is RSI stock price in a recession or higher interest rates-I guess I am asking what are the risks.
Thank you.
