Q: I've held these partial positions for some time now and am below water on all but NTR.

The objective here is income with some growth.

If all positions were sold and you had to consolidate all proceeds into just one of the four options provided, which would you choose and why?

What would you choose if you were forced to sell all four and reposition into one new company?

Q: When the initial shock at SVB happened, I traded First Republic shares and made enough profits to buy a long position when the shares went into the 12's. I don't believe that the US Govt. will allow these "small" banks to fail. Ex: FRC has over 7000 employees.
Are there any other US "small" banks that you screen that have been hammered but have a good prospect of surviving and flourishing? I have a very high risk tolerance.
Thank you Gordo

Q: I am moving toward retirement and looking for stocks with a Dividend of 4% plus. Could you suggest some Canadian and US companies that you feel are good value in todays market or ones to watch for this fall if things go down- separate lists please. All categories except financials as I'm overweight there. I'm interested in companies that can ride a recession with higher interest rates. Thank you!
