Q: Hi,
Could you please recommend 10 (5 US / 5 CAN) high-quality defensive companies with strong balance sheets, low debt levels, and robust cash flows that YOU believe they can weather economic stress, inflation, or stagflation and they relatively hold up their stock prices during such times? If their current stock prices are overvalued, please suggest your recommended entry prices.

Also please recommend ETFs that mainly invest in companies with the above criteria?

Thank you

Q: Hello,

I currently hold a position in IFC and it has performed well. I'm considering increasing my investment, but with the recent pullback in SLF, it’s also presenting an attractive opportunity.

Would you recommend adding to my IFC position, selling my full IFC position to invest in SLF, or maintaining my IFC holdings and initiating a new position in SLF with fresh capital?

Thanks in advance!

Q: Hi Team,

I went looking through the questions and couldn’t find one like this. I am not looking for personal advice but the context is that I am closer to winding down the working years and am trying to build some income into the portfolio through dividend growers.

What would be your top seven dividend growers in both the US and Canada where the starting dividend is at least 1.5% indicating that management sees the dividend as a meaningful part of its capital allocation strategy? Obviously, I would prefer some sector diversification as well.

Please feel free to deduct as many questions as you deem appropriate.

Thanks for the great help!
