Q: Hi Peter,
Portfolio clean up time. Considering whether to sell MSI (Morneau Shepell), what do you think about its outlook?

If sell, would like to stay within the indistrial/services. From your top idea, I would consider switching into one of STN, WPK or BYD.UN. Would you sell MSI and buy one of these at the current price levels? if so, which one would be the most attractive swap right now?

Q: Hello Pieter; I currently have approx. 5,500 in my TFSA to invest for a 3-5 year hold. I had previously invested in REITS & though I still believe in the REIT space, I am looking to invest in stocks that would provide more steady growth and dividend increases over time. I have selected several such as: BYD.UN, HCG, BAD, STN & MG as possible candidates. Can you please suggest the top 2 that you see as having the highest potential for continued appreciation and dividend increases. I currently hold small positions in the following: AW.UN (26% of total), CGX (19%), DH (24%), FRU (14%) & IPL (17%). Thanks for your help.

Q: Hi Peter - I really like your website; enjoy reading the member questions and your answers - very informative.
After reading the blog about maintenance of portfolios, I have two questions.
With a portfolio of $100,000, would the ideal number of stocks still be 20? And with my ACQ (AutoCanada) and STN (Stantec) becoming a larger percentage - would you still trim these or let them run up a bit?
Thank you
