Q: hello,

I'm interested in buying an industrial stock or etf to fill a hole in my portfolio. I was considering Honeywell or Trinity Industries. What do you think of them as a long term hold or is there another stock/etf that you prefer? Or a Canadian one?

Thanks for the great work,

Gtaeme

Q: Any thoughts on Hammond Manufacturing (HMM.A)? Apparently they make electrical/electronic components. The Globe suggests they are very inexpensive but tiny (18M$ market cap). Is this too small for your followers to be considering? (Do you have advice on a minimum market capitalization for inclusion in our portfolios?)

Q: Peter and Team. Love this service and recommend it as often as I can.

Do you have a preference re IGV.US verses XLK.US ? I am a well diversified investor with the exception of tech and don't want to be a stock picker in this segment. An ETF seems the best way to play tech for me.

Many thanks, Nancy

Q: Good morning Peter and Team,

This is more of a comment than a question. As per your advice, I'm voting to reject the Transforce offer to purchase Contrans. I recently received the "Director's Circular Recommending Acceptance of the Offer.....". As a Scotia iTrade client, I am being told to contact an agent at iTrade with my voting instructions. Strangely, when I phoned, the agent had no information on his system about the vote, and told me to call them back in a week. I was surprised that the all the info was received in the mail but that they're not yet ready to take my vote! I'm wondering if other brokers aren't yet ready to take the vote.
