Q: Hey everyone, I have a nice amount in my TFSA account. What I’m trying to do is grow the account over time, let’s say a 25yr time period as I don’t need the money. With your crystal ball in hand and a mindset of holding forever what twenty companies would you buy today? Companies can be anywhere in the world and be in any sector but they need to trade on a North American exchange. Appreciate you playing along.

Q: Applovin just got admitted to the s&p500. I’m assuming this must be very good for the shares over the next year as all of the index trackers have to start buying it. Will it also remove some of the volatility in the share price? What other effects do you see from this index inclusion.

Q: Please compare and contrast the differences between HYLD.U and SDAY { not as yet in your stock listings } .... I have a 6.5% position in HYLD.U and considering starting a position in SDAY ...... I want to know if there is too much overlap to justify this ? Please define SDAY's investment strategy .....Also on their website they say the last distribution was .18 and then goes on later to say distributions are done twice a month ..... So if one takes them literally that implies an 18% annual dividend ...... I'm inclined to think they meant monthly but I don't know ...... Which is it ? 9% or 18% ? Thanks for your terrific service ......

Q: Hello friends,

I've recently read about these two companies in a report regarding insider activity. Both have impressive 52-week runs. My first opinion after a quick research is that APM looks pretty good, not so much CNL.

I would like a quick expert analysis on both, an opinion if their performance can continue and perhaps better alternatives, if your analysis does not result in a buy recommendation.

Many thanks!
