Q: Hi Folks,
I've held BNS in my RRSP account for a couple of years now. I also hold TD. I am breaking even with BNS, would this be a good time to switch to RY. I realize there is a difference in the dividend but I am looking 5-10 years down the road.
Thanks

Q: Seems to me that the market must be offering up some strong, well run companies that, for some strange reason, are trading at much lower prices than what they deserve. These kinds companies pay a good dividend, have a strong balance sheet and their forward earnings look good and dependable. (perhaps you call these kinds of companies 'value' companies). Anway, here's my question, I would like to begin investing in them and would appreciate your opinion on a number of these value companies that I should consider adding to my portfolio. Perhaps 6 Canadian and 6 American. Thanks as always for your appreciated opinion.

Q: I realize this stock has been beat up. looking to add a bank stock. Looking for a dividend stock for the long term. Should move on it now or wait until the dust settles. Or the other bank I'm considering is BNS. It's been the laggard for a while.
Looking forward to your comments.

Q: Good morning. I watched your interview with Kornel Szejber from Build Wealth Canada. On it you discussed immunization which was most helpful. You also mentioned that you thought of CNR and CP as set it and forget it stocks. With that train of thought in mind which other canadian dividend stocks would you put in this same category? If I was to purchase 10 dividend stocks to take advantage of the dividend tax credit in my non registered acct which would be my main source of income which stocks should I consider.
Thanks
Victoria

Q: Hi Team,

Have you noticed all the BAIL-IN debt that's being raised right now by Canadian banks? Shouldn't we be exiting these stocks or am I misreading what is going on?

I was shopping for some short term bonds with high yields to hold to maturity and I see a number of issues where "Bail-in debt," is written in the comments on the bonds.

Q: I may be incorrectly expecting downward pressure on oil prices given the likelihood of reduced demand from recessionary conditions. As a result I plan on exiting my position in Suncor and moving the funds elsewhere in hopes of capital appreciation. I follow the Balanced Portfolio with a few holdings of some other names you like. Wondering if you could provide a couple of Canadian companies you feel are undervalued right now regardless of sector. Don’t need the cash again for 10 years.

Q: Hi Guys

Can you outline a bit your thoughts on the Latin American holdings/issues with Scotia Bank eg. Mexico/Chile. Do you see these as short term issues which will resolve in time, view their holdings as having long term value and be a good contributor to earnings going forward (or assets they will be looking to shed), and do you see BNS earning as going down/staying the same/or going up over the next 5 years. And lastly the safety of the dividend?

Much thanks

Stuart
