The best of the season to all of you, Thanks, Ken

Q: Is a 12% portfolio weighting in BNS too large? I do not hold any other financial stocks. Should I be trimming and buying something else in the financial sector? Thanks and Happy Holidays.

Q: Thanks to your reviews I bought XTC Exco a while back and have done very well with it. Its recent announcement has given a nice bounce to the stock today and I wonder if its getting ahead of itself.
Its now 6% of my portfolio and its been my policy to start to trim back although with this one I'm considering letting it run up and trim back at 8%. My time horizon is 5 years plus.
Would appreciate your thoughts and do you see any change in your current rating.
Many thanks
John

Please give me your opinion of Colabor (GCL). It pays a 5% dividend and is a food distributor in eastern Canada. I thought this investment would be very safe with some slight growth but so far "this dog don't hunt". Thanks.
