Q: Hi Peter:
Re: STN
I have a small position in Stantec intending to increase exposure over time at favorable pricing. I'm puzzled by its daily gyrations. One day up 2-3% the next down by a similar amount. For a steady-eddie kind of stock these movements strike me as being rather bizarre. Thoughts?
Thank you and kind regards,
Geoff

Q: Hi Peter & team, I always find difficult to remember the company name associated to a symbol. If possible, when answering a question could you please make sure to use the company name in your answer. This would be easier to read, and would avoid the need to search for the company name associated to the symbol used in the question. On the other hand, it would be great if everybody would do the effort of using both the symbol and the company name when asking a question. Thanks, Gervais

Q: Hi Peter and team,

I am looking to increase my weighting in technology and am wondering about the trade off between OTC and DSG. I know you have added DSG to the income portfolio but with OTC's recent correction and long term steady performance, would you still prefer DSG. I already own Syz, Eng, MDA, DH, GIB (value play).

Thanks for your continued great advice!

Was wondering if you expect some downward pressure simply due to the "sell in May" phenonema. i know over the long term it probably doesnt matter but short term Would I be better of waiting a month or two for a better entry point.

Q: Fantastic resource, glad to have found you! I have sat in cash for a long time save for about 30% in bonds. This year finally getting back in so to speak. Have utilized your portfolio targeting growth potential with strong dividends, 11% in so far. Wanting to keep it simple and given valuations today, is an entry point allocating 5% BCE 48.16, 5% bep.un 32.23 and 5% wcp 13.55 a reasonably safe bet for their dividends and still respectable 5 year growth? Thank you!

Q: Could I please have your thoughts on the deal with Crew energy? I have held LRE since the Westfire days and it has never really recovered. It has increased its dividend but the market is still not impressed. Is this still worth holding or if it's time to move on, what to replace it with.

Providing information to help me make these types of decisions is so valuable , thank you
