Q: Good Morning,
Some recent pressure on Canadian bank stocks lately, do you see this continuing in the near term? I would like to add some BNS to a taxable account, what are your thoughts. This will be a long term hold. Have TD and RY in TFSA and RRSP.
Also what are your thoughts on CNR for a long term investment in a taxable account.
Thank you

Q: Over the last 20 years CNR and KSU have been outstanding performers. CNR up about 2000% and KSU up 7500%!! Both have been better than Birkshire Hathaway. Which would pick for a long hold? Have the metrics of these RRs changed? In particular, does KSU still have the advantage that propelled it 20 years ago? It has lagged of late.

Q: Hello gentlemen,

My query pertains to CNR. I took in half a position yesterday (2.5%) and was hoping to wait for a pullback within the next few weeks to buy the remaining half. Do you think the rails are too richly valued at the moment ? Given CNR north south trajectory thorough the continent, do you think it's shipments, and in turn it's stock price may be negatively impacted by potential border taxes ?

Please enlighten me as to whether you are of the opinion that a full poisiton can be purchased, and how you would approach. Do you view this as a solid buy? I'm 31, so my horizon is very long.

Thx

KR

Q: I am trying to high grade my portfolio and looking 2-3 yrs out for total return, would you swap the stocks in the following 3 scenarios or would you stay put. 1. TFI for CNR, 2. MX for SJ, 3. Bad or RUS for SIS. A small explanation as to why would be appreciated. Thanks and keep up the fantastic work.

Q: Between CNR and CP, which one do you recommend today and going forward in the Trump era, and reasons as to your preference.
Does it make sense to own both Telus and BCE?
Thank you,

Q: I already have a 5.91% position in Canadian National Railway (CNR). Is there too much overlap if I buy Stella Jones (SJ)? If not, what percent of a portfolio would you make SJ at current share prices and market environment?

Thanks again.
