Q: Hello, CDN Banks are trading at or near their 52 week lows. BNS and CM have a dividend yield of over 5% now. Do you believe, their valuations have reached close to or near their bottom and it makes sense to add, for income and growth, with a time horizon of 5-10 years. If so, what will be your preferred order for these names ? Thanks

Q: In my non registered account for financials I own BNS, TD, and GSY. With them all down would you top them up or buy CM instead as an additional holding? The focus of the accounts is high quality dividends as I plan to only use the dividends in retirement. I have growth stocks in my TFSA.

Q: Why were CDN banks down 3%, today, Stress Test results for US banks also came strong. One damper, as I learned was Deutsche Bank down 11% in Europe Trading. Is there a contagion effect ? CDN Banks are now down 20% YTD. Should we worry ? Thanks

Q: Earlier today you replied to a question with: "We are not big fans of averaging down, but if we were to do it BAM.A would likely be near the top of the list. When 'the market' brings down all stocks we are more comfortable buying more as opposed to when a company in isolation declines. We are not worrried about BAM getting through this market and/or upcoming recession. "

Please list 5 cad and 5 usd stocks that would be in your top list that would meet the above criteria.

Thx.

Q: Hi! I’m evaluating the Canadian banks and I’m trying to find historical averages for price to book and price to earnings ratios. Can you outline historical ranges where Canadian banks were cheap and why Canadian banks trade higher than u.s. banks on price to book? Is it due to their oligopoly status?

Thanks,
Jason

Q: Hi Peter, I have 300 shares of CM in a margin account and 20 in my TFSA since they are splitting I thought it would be a good idea to transfer some (what I can contribute) into my TFSA, 1. Your thought on that and 2. Is there a way to do this rather than selling them in one and buying them back in the other and when is it better, before or after the split. Please take as many credits for this question as needed. Thanks for your valued opinion. Nick
