Q: Good Day,

I have just started adding in to my cash account, which now has me considering tax ramifications. Since I am not looking to pay MORE taxes, what are some names you would suggest for a longer term hold with no or really low dividends and a long runway for growth. I have listed PNG GRID GRGD VNP and CLS. Would you add a couple other names and rank them with a comment on their preospects.

Thanks!

James

Q: I am not particularly proud to acknowledge that I own the above- but I do. ENGH and OTEX are in accounts that are structured for income and some growth, while DSG is in an account that is looking for primarily growth. Canadian traded is key for all. Looking for your input on these companies and whether there are better options that I am missing.

Q: Hi guys,
I have money to add to an RRSP account that currently has CCO, DOL, BN, and L. I’m retired and looking for steady eddys. Each of these has worked well and I will continue to hold. I’d like to add one between MG, NA, CSU, SJ, GRT.UN. Or perhaps something else you would recommend. I understand these are all completely different companies. Sector is unimportant. Just something that is solid as a rock and to hold before converting to RRIF in 5 years

Q: Hello,
I have owned stpl for years as a sector based diversification strategy but feel it has had disappointing returns, even for that sector noting that there are some great breakout picks in the staples sector.
Could you please advise if you think it is a reasonable choice for the staples sector versus specific picks?
I realize that you typically recommend dol as well as wmt, cost and pg. just wondering what you think are good long term picks at this time given significant movement in these in the last couple of years.
