Q: Having an Income portfolio including the above companies, I'm unsure of the effects of a potential increase in US rates in say December 2016 when at the same time the Bank of Canada holds rates or even maintains dovish tone signally near term rate cut. Will holding Canadian interest rates steady offset what would otherwise be negative pressure of a US rate increase on Canadian dividend paying stocks? Thanks
Q: Looking for your recommendation on leveraging 1 or 2 oil plays for 6 mos. to 1yr. My choices at present are SGY, BTE, CJ & BIR.

Thank you.

Please consider companies beyond those listed above.

Q: I am primarily building an income portfolio for retirement in 5-6 years. It will represent about 30-40% of my retirement income. Alongside this I like to invest in some equities for capital gains. My question revolves around the need for any value investments I have owned EFV for about 10 years and really has done nothing. I also own the Chou 100 and 102 funds. My question is whether or not you think to be properly diversified one should have some money in value investments. If so, what ones would you recommend.
Thank You
Paul
