Q: Hi. In the Financial sector, I own BNS (5%), TD (5%), GSY(3.2%), ECN(3.3%) and Visa (2.4%). Is the banking sector too high? If I need to sell, which one should go first? Is GSY and ECN very similar in nature? Should I own both? Thanks

Q: Hi, there is an article on Motley Fool today that lists these 3 stocks as forever hold (especially on recent pullbacks) for value, growth and dividend growth. What is your take on this? I have 30+ years and use any drips available. I already own bns as well. Do you know if anything that presents major issues or headwinds for them?

Thanks

Q: Hello: I currently own BMO, CM and BNS. I’m thinking of switching BMO for TD as BMO did not increase its dividend as TD did. Also I believe TD has more US exposure which should show better growth. Your opinion please.

Q: If my broker went on national tv and picked 3 index stocks I would immediately move my money.
I can pay 0.03 and get the same results.
Most of the guests on BNN are scared to stray from index.
Your group is not.
I read all of the questions and answers.
I learn something new everyday.
Thank you,

Q: Hi 5iResearch Team,
I currently hold positions in 3 of Canada's 5 big banks as above and they represent about 9% of my total portfolio. Giving pending interest rate increases in both the States and Canada, I am thinking of increasing my holdings in Canadian banking sector to about 12/13 percentage of total portfolio and would like your thoughts on this.
Cheers,

Q: Hi guys, I just opened an RESP for my 4 month old and have $5k to invest for his future education. Obviously I have a long term outlook. I'm contemplating buying a single ETF, for example VXC, or a solid dividend paying company, like BNS or ENB. The latter is pretty beaten up so there could be some growth there as well. I hold all 3 mentioned funds/stocks in my RRSP/TFSA mix. Which way would you lean and/or is there a better place to invest right now?
thanks for the great resource guys!
cheers,
Mark
