Q: I would appreciate your thoughts on each of the three companies indicated. What do you currently think about them & would you consider each to be a "buy", "hold" or "sell" going forward? Thank you for your great service.

Q: I am an income investor looking for stability with some growth and want to invest in pipelines. I would prefer an ETF like PPLN but the cost is too high with an MER of 0.74 and TER 0.11. If you could only invest in 3 of the above 5 companies, which would you choose? Can you rank the above 5 pipeline companies, from highest growth potential to lowest, over the next 3 years.
Thanks!

Q: Hello Peter,

I am undecided over how to handle my Constellation software holding. I have done well with it and it is 15% of my portfolio. I am vacillating between trimming some and letting it ride until there is a threat from a black swan event. You must have encountered such situations before and your opinion and reasoning may help me take a decision.
Regards
Rajiv

Q: May I have your opinion of Amazon and Apple’s earnings this quarter and future outlook please.

Not sure this really applies to these two, but I’ve heard that the tariffs won’t truly impact companies’ earnings until next quarter (with some companies stockpiling 3-6 months worth of inventory to try to ride this out and customers doing the same). Mind you, we could wake up tomorrow and everything has changed again.

Thank you.

Q: Portfolio Analytics suggests a need to increase my allocation in utilities, real estate, communication services and consumer defensives. Could you give me your best 3 picks for each category, preferably on the TSX. If you feel the Canadian doesn't have very good choices, suggestions on the US market would be appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter

Can I get your thoughts on Pinetree. I would like to know if you would add to a position. It looks expensive but I plan on it being a long term hold. I just am struggling on valuation.

Q: Hi 5i.

I am hoping you can answer this question, which has been puzzling me for awhile. Every day, when I look at the list of the top-traded stocks on the NASDAQ in the Financial Post, MSFT is never there. I can't understand why this would be. Is it because a huge percentage of the stock is held by institutions that simply do not trade it?
