Q: Oh BOYD! I see you re-rated BYD down a notch and have replied to other questions that you are still believers but that the next year could be rough. With the pandemic forcing a shift to more remote work will that reduce the BYD customer base and their long term upside. More companies are set up for remote work and likely will allow some form of remote work moving forward. So fewer commutes, fewer commuters, less traffic/road rage = fewer accidents? Long term do you still see BYD in the portfolio or could cash be better deployed somewhere else for the long term.

Q: I own OTEX and not DSG or KXS. I follow a blend of the income and balanced portfolio but bought OTEX instead of KXS as I don't like to buy companies that don't have a dividend. Thus why I don't currently own DSG or KXS. My question is should I sell my OTEX and replace it with DSG or KXS. I've owned OTEX for a few years so up about 25% ( excluding the div) even with the current pullback. I can see the change in the growth portfolio but don't see a strong reason to sell it to buy DSG or KXS in a balanced/income view unless you feel strongly otherwise.

Q: Comprised of the above Canadian companies, our TFSA represents a small portion of our overall portfolio and is its most growth oriented component. All investments are made with the intent to be long-term holds (10+ years).

Two of the holdings, AT and LSPD are down over 50%, while FSV, GSY, NVEI and WELL are all down by about a third. We intend to do some rebalancing. How would you rate (1-10) these 6 for additional money today? Please include a brief explanation for the ratings.

Finally, if you could add one more Canadian company to the mix, what would it be?

Q: Please name and rank five Canadian stocks providing dividends > 2% that are likely to experience strong growth over the next five years. (Please exclude GSY as it's already owned and I'm assuming would be on the list.) Thank you.

Q: Given the recent political actions taken by Disney is it time to sell? Management may be losing its focus by getting into politics when it should be focused on its business. Florida is considering removing Disney’s special status. The growing backlash and coverage on some networks could impact customer support and business. There are increasingly calls for a boycott. There is a potential that new CEO does not last with increasing scrutiny. Not sure how much this could negatively impact the share price short term and long term and if it’s time to step away and wait until the dust settles. Thoughts?
