Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi,
Could you illustrate to us all what type of companies/stocks and/or sectors historically have performed the best ( or least worst ) over periods of recession/depression/stagflation and war times? And further, can you provide your top 5-10 CDN stocks that you think would do best in these situations, with at least half of them dividend payers please, if possible. Potential ETF and options strategies would be appreciated as well. Take as many points as you see fit.
cheers and thanks, Chris

Q: I am looking to buy Enbridge and see that it is currently close to the top of the 52-week trading range. The range is $52 to $66. Today's price is $65. The 5-year graph and 10-year graph show the price all over the map, with the price now close to the all-time high.

I am buying for both income and capital appreciation. What would a good entry price be? Thank you.
