Q: I am looking to lock in some profits and hold a little more cash at the moment. The above stocks are ones I've done well on but are feeling a bit stagnant at the moment. I still like them but looking for ones to sell that have the least FOMO. BNS is probably already a for sure as I am overweight on it a lot at the moment. I have losses from the market downturn so taxes are not a major concern. What of these would you consider selling first if raising cash? I don't worry about sector weights.

Q: I need in increase my portfolio weightings in Consumer Cyclical and Utilities. I currently hold AQN, BIP.UN and FTS in Utilities in roughly equal amounts and hold QSR and LNF for Consumer Cyclical with QSR double the holding of LNF. Should I add to my current positions to increase my weighting in both sectors or consider adding new stocks?

Q: The National Bank of Canada has recently introduced online trading for $0/stock trades and $1.25/contract for option trades. Their trading platform is free if you do a minimum 15 trades/month. I calculate saving about $350/month if I switch from the TD. Do you see any downside?

Q: What is the latest information on the forward P/E for REAL? It would seem with the price drop REAL must be cheap by now. Let's assume REAL is successful with the onboarding of the tier one client, which they are being quite careful about, and growth continues. Isn't there an opportunity here for new buyers of REAL?

Q: Good Morning,

I would like your opinion on when GSY might be considered an addition to the Balanced portfolio? Is it a matter of sector weighting that would preclude its inclusion? It seems to be a perfect stock for the folio. Growth and a growing dividend.

Sorry for putting the team on the spot!

It’s horrible having made so many prescient selections that subscribers are reduced to questions like this one. Lol
