Q: Hello Peter and All,

I look after my daughter’s TFSA and Investment Acct. She is 7% under weight in Tech with holdings of: (OTEX 2.3%), (PUR 1.4%) plus ( QQQ and other ETFs provide 4.3% Tech ), total portfolio, 8% Tech. Money will not be required for about ten years.

To bring her up to 15 % total would you suggest buying KXS plus add to OTEX and PUR, or would you use a different combination such as CLS instead of PUR.
Many thanks.

Q: Based on available historical data, the above have compounded earnings > 10%. I intend to put these good companies into a RRIF to boost the return of a mostly bond/gic content.

In your opinion would you regard each of the above as a good company that should be able to provide a relatively stable future annual return of 8% to 10% with the exception of a market meltdown. Looking for some reassurance regarding the picks. Thank you.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Recently you gave good analysis as to why FLEX retreated despite a strong QR. You stated it was because they lowered future earning from $0.30 to $0.28-$0.24 for the next quarter. You also stated that you preferred CLS over FLEX. If FLEX is forecasting continued growth for the next 2 years and CLS appears more stagnant...I am wondering why you think CLS has more potential going forward. Or do you just think FLEX will have a misstep. Please clarify. Your analysis is invaluable to us retail investors as we search for facts before we make decisions!
As always...thanks!
