Q: I am wondering how to classify a stock as growth vs income. In some cases it is obvious. A stock paying no dividend is surely growth (eg TOY PHO BTO ELD). And a stock that is stable, large, and has a solid dividend (3-7%) is surely income (eg ET BCE ENB BNS GWO). Please correct me if this is wrong. But in many cases, it could be either (eg SIS SAP PBH ATB.B FM TECK.B UNH:US).

Could you please tell me how you determine how to classify them?

Thank you,

Fed

Q: I got into this a short time ago (over a couple of years ago) around this level it bounced around a bit and ran up over $100. I considered selling or trimming but it didn't get to the % I had in mind. I held due to the increasing dividend and stock buy backs. With the benefit of hindsight it has got me wondering if this is a stock that is more of a trading stock or is it something that is suitable to hold for long period of time. My portfolio target is to achieve 7%+ rate of return over my life.
