Q: Regardless of sector or size, what would be your top 3 stock picks in Canada for a long term hold? Thanks
Read Answer Asked by Gary on July 13, 2023
Q: Hi, thanks to Peter, I am a long-term holder of CSU. As a result, I now have smaller positions in Lumine and Topicus as well, and while I have added to each of those special dividend holdings, I have three fairly similar holdings. I'm looking to pare down my holdings and wondering if you can divine which of the two spin-offs I should keep and add to with the sale of the other? I was leaning to dump TOI because of it's European exposure and it bears similarities to being a younger Constellation while Lumine may be more innovative and unique.
Please comment.

Q: Dear 5i,

Using a Canadian broker.
Is there a way where one can slowly build a small position in CSU at a fraction of it's normal stock price of approx. $2,650? For example, is there a way where I can buy 1/10 share at approx. 1/10 the price? I find this is an issue for stock prices that are very high. Does CSU have a history of doing stock splits?

Q: Good morning 5i:
Next year I will be retiring, and currently I have the outlined stocks in my RRSP, I'm happy with all of them, I think I would like to sell some of them (or trim down, slowly -no rush) and buy stocks/etf that will provide resilience , some yield, and perhaps some growth , can you please provide me with some ideas, 3 or more , I was thinking BN, add more to VFV.
Please use as many credits as required.

THANK YOU for all your help.

Q: Follow up question to the question asked today about equal weighting in the 3 noted companies.
What %age of the shares outstanding for TOI and LMN does CSU own?
Are these two companies now out on their own wrt CSU or is CSU looking out for or helping them along in any way?
If so would they not sell any shares to raise capital and hence look elsewhere if needed?

Thanks
Jeff

Q: I would like to add to above existing positions.
I believe that CSU dropped enough to make it interesting after recent new highs. LIN looks like a steady large company with a good future. GEI has a nice dividend and good analyst reports.
Please give me your opinions on each.
Thank you
