Q: What is going on with AIM? Is it a good buy? How much of their revenue comes from their Air Canada partnership? What I am reading is they have $2.75/share in cash, does this make it a good buy on sale today with the price in the $3-4 range this morning?

Q: I am concerned about my allocations to the banking sector. TD accounts for 16% of my portfolio and BAC/WFC combination 7%. All shares were purchased during the financial crisis and I have done extremely well with that move. With TD's US exposure I could pare BAC/WFC or reduce TD or continue to hold them? All shares are in RIFs. I am a conservative investor. Dividend income is good.

Thanks for your advice,
