Q: I have a question about Gold. Specifically I would understand gold to a be good risk hedge against rising interest rates. Looking to take a position in one or more gold companies with some potential for growth....any suggestions would be appreciated. Maybe a couple higher risk small caps and also some big players....Gold Corp seems like they are doing well recently.

Q: Thanks for your recent reply -- but I think my question was misunderstood.

While I thank you for the recommendations on SQ, CGNX and ALGN, they are all in the Technology sector, which is something I would like to move away from at this time.

Even if I retain a 5% position in Netflix, Nvda and Shopify, that would bring me to a 15% in my portfolio, which I think 5I suggests should be a good enough weighting at this time.

Could you please provide a few names, with good growth, outside of tech? Your favourites?

Please deduct as many points as is required -- as I've got lots in store. : ) Sorry for being such a pest, but I suppose my first question was misunderstood?

Thank you!

Q: My TFSA Account is primarily made up of the stocks indicated above. In 2017, my net performance was around 2.8%. Would you provide suggestions for a growth stock with reasonable valuations that might help boost performance in 2018 and advise on a reasonable price for point of entry? Also, are there stocks that I hold that you view as a trade at this point with the goal of achieving a reasonable return with moderate risk?

Q: Hello
My question is related to the vastly discounted price that Canadian oil companies are able to achieve for their product, with many analysts indicating they need to get it to either or both coasts so it can be sold for a better price. I would think that the rail companies are probably getting some of the oil to the coasts, and have to potential to move greater volumes even if more costly than pipelines. Are CNR or CP in the position to benefit form this need to move the oil to 'tide water'?
Thanks,
Brian
