Investment Q&A

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

Q: I would like to contribute an existing holding from my non-registered account into my TFSA in early 2026, but am unsure about which holding to contribute. Which of these do you think makes the most sense to move into my TFSA based on potential upside/income? I have a long-term 10+ year hold period. Thanks!

Q: Good Morning all.

I currently have a portfolio weighting of 18.1% financials versus the recommended 15%. Individual stocks at 1/2 to full positions include the 4 banks, SLF, ING, MA, TSU, ONEX, BN and BAM. (I do need to consolidate I think).

All have been doing more or less what I would expect; except ONEX. It has been a frustrating stock to own, with a downtrend for the years, in my view, a management enrichment program.

The question - would it make more sense to shed this stock and perhaps one of the banks, then roll the funds into a BN or BAM.

Thanks as always!

Dave

Q: We owned Onex since 2006, we are from $20 to$ 64. Not that great given the meagre dividend. It is about 1% of total portfolio. we have some newly realized cash and wonder if we should augment the position to 3% given the low valuation now.
could you suggest other well priced private equity or conglomerate, (Claivest?) We are looking at the long term.
Thank you.
