Q: Hi Peter,

You had this qn on Jan. 23, 2023:

My sister wants to invest in 10 Canadian stocks that are relatively safe in terms of capital preservation but which offer possible dividend and growth . Hopefully the stocks would be in different sectors that you would recommend.

Now, for a 5 yr + time period, what 11 US quality stock from each sector would you recommend ?

Please deduct as many credits as necessary.

Thanks a million.

Q: Hello,

I have small positions in these 6 stocks, all in the red - MTCH, ROKU, GNRC are in registered accounts, RBLX, UPST, ZM in non-registered. I don't find it easy to sell any stocks but in the spirit of 'pulling weeds', can I get your opinion on which of these, if any, you would sell. Any that might be worth adding to at their current valuation?

Thank you for your insights, Doris

Q: I previously owned some BAM.A Because of the complexity with tax reporting, I had this in a registered account. With the current set up, it appears that BN has more of a growth orientation, and this stock might be better held in a non-registered account. Do you have any idea what the distributions from BN might be composed of, going forward?
Thanks!

Q: I have HHL & HHL.U in my registered accounts for many years. It has been a good dividend (>8%) generator with its policy of options investment of about 30%. It has a high management fee of 0.85 and MER of 0.99.

LIFE is similar with almost half fee and dividend is equally attractive. Like to get your advise comparable merits of switching HHL to LIFE.

Q: This offshore drilling company (Transocean) stock price has increased 111% over the past 12 months.

Many rigs are still on previous leases at much lower prices/day rates than the current new leases being executed.

Assuming rig count stays the same (does not increase like it did in 2022), but expiring leases renew at recent rates with existing or new customers, what is the fundamental outlook for the next 3 years or so (approximately)?

The stock price has been very volatile...$0.81 in October of 2020, $84 in 2011, and currently at $7. Trying to get a better grasp on the fundamentals here in the above scenario that should translate to the stock price...
