Q: Without naming every company - I have full positions in most banks, insurance cos., utilities, pipes, telcos and renewables,

This is where I see some relative safety and the best yields.

With the dip and yields improving are there any names that stick out as very attractive and safe in going a little overweight on?

Q: What are a few smaller/aggressive growth-oriented names in Canada and the US that you think have the potential to work out quite well w/ a 5+ year timeframe, and that are not too likely to go out of business in a prolonged recession?

Q: Hello,

You responded to Derek and his question about TSU and BAM stating “ TSU was a 100% spin off from BAM.A. BAM does not own any shares and there is no formal relationship between the two. Essentially, TSU is too small for BAM and we would not expect something between the two.”

In fact, Partners Value (private investment holdco of BAM) is the majority shareholder of TSU with a weighting of 10%. Also, Q4 2016 Flatt stated that senior management intends to keep all of their shares. Now I’m 2020 they did sell 2.5 mm of shares.

Q: You mention in your company report that TSU initially had a relationship with BAM. Do they still have some sort of relationship , for instance marketing channels or shareholding’s ? Is there any chance of TSU and BAMR doing something together ?
Thanks. Derek

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

Visa has done well in the period of ownership but has stalled over the last couple of years....."Experts" seem to be divided somewhat on the returns to expect in the future.

In my financial basket V is a larger position than ECN and TSU but lower than BAM.A.

What do you feel about the future expectations of Visa in particular and how would you rank the 4 stocks future returns

Thanks for all you do

Dennis

Q: I see you like Trisura for 2022. Answering a question on March 17 you acturally included it as one of your top picks for this year. My question is why do you have such confidence in the future of this company. Also, do you see it doing well this year or is it the kind of company that one has to buy and hold for 5 years to see stong advances in its price appreciation. Thanks as always for your opinion.

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Would you consider Galaxy Digital in the speculative category? The stock has been surging lately but takes a hit at times; however, their numbers look reasonable. Any idea why Trisura is starting to surge? Is it going along with other insurance companies given rise in rates.

Q: I have been looking at recommendations in the questions and have picked the companies listed above to look into.
Without considering sector diversification, would you say each of these individually are strong companies to invest in, or would you separate these into different tiers?
In what order would you take a position in these stocks if you were to invest today? (e.g. may want to wait until prices for growth stocks like TIXT/TSU stabilize)
Also please provide suggested entry prices for each.
