Q: Hello Peter and team, could you help with the following question:I recently liquidated TD Canada Trust (CDN Commons) as it appreciated significantly. It was time to cash in. Question is, what in your opinion is the next Canadian financial institution to own for the long term, getting dividends while waiting for capital appreciation. I'm thinking Scotiabank or even a smaller FI like CDN Western Bank but appreciate your opinion. Thx

Q: Hi Peter,
In our children's in-trust accounts, I am currently considering replacing CPX (Capital Power) which has a stable dividend but low growth with BNS (Scotiabank) for a bit more growth as well as a stable dividend. Please comment. Thanks!

Q: ZWB versus Bank of Nova Scotia for my Dad, my kids RESP or myself. The banking portion of a
healthy 90 year old's well balanced successful portfolio, wouldn't mind some cash flow and to maintain initial investment. Well balanced RESP, 1/2 is laddered bonds, will need the funds in 2-7 years, have 12.5% in ZWB, should it change to BNS? For myself, 15 years before I need cash, well balanced portfolio - ZWB vs BNS?

Q: Hey Peter. Masterful job on MarketCall.
Question on strategy: Seeing the larger discount, than its historical average compared to its peers, I am accumulating a position in National Bank. If I get to a full position (5% of my portfolio) and the large discount remains compared to its peers, would you overweight National Bank or would you start accumulating a second bank, as they also seem to look attractive at these levels. Currently National Bank is my only financial.
