Q: I have two stocks in a registered account that seem to have stalled: J and HD. Both are up over time (J up 50%, HD 75%) but there hasn't been much movement lately. Given the absence of tax consequences, is it time to move on? And if yes, please provide two US industrials and two US consumer cyclicals to replace them. (AMZN already held.) Thank you.
