Q: Hi,
Currently holding around 25% tech exposure, long term growth investor. If I wanted to de-leverage my portfolio and rebalance to some other sectors, how would you rank these tech stocks?

Do you have any fundamental concerns about any of the names held or is this a good list? NVDA is on my list of names to own as well. Thank you!

Q: I need to shore up my accounts with some fixed income (low risk) positions. All indications are that interest rates are likely to rise, which makes me nervous to hold bonds or bond funds. I am not sure where to turn - maybe Bond ETF's? I don't want to micromanage a specific bond portfolio either. Do you have any advice on the best approach? I am still 10-15 years from "retirement" (whatever that means), so my investment horizon is still pretty long term.

Thanks in advance

Q: Hi guys,

I have been a holder of AAPL for years with some excellent returns. Increasingly however I wonder whether this is a sustainable growth pace for the world’s richest company, and whether they are able to hold their multiple. The phones are expensive and their watch, AirPods and other accessories are successful, but again can they sustain replacement of these expensive products and actually grow their markets for such a huge company.
Their recent rally has been shocking to me, as the only recent news provided was of supply disruptions and an insider statement to suppliers that demand for the 13 is less than expected.

Do you see AAPL as worthy of holding for years to come with its now elevated multiples or is this possibly a good time to jump to another peer that has more left in the tank, like MSFT or AMZN?

Thanks as always.

Q: Hi,

I'm looking for 2 or 3 broad based ETFs that track the CDN TSX closely, and two or three ETFs that track the US broad market closely, for a 'couch potato' strategy.

Q: I have some ecn in my riff and need to get some cash available for my year end withdrawal and need to know if the dividend payment is in fact to be paid before year end to cover my government obligation so I will not have to sell other stocks to meet the cash requirement. Please advise.
Cheers Doug
