Each has a bank( RY,BNS), reit (KMP, AX.UN), pipeline (PPL, IPL), insurance (SLF, MFC) and oil ( VET, ARX),all equal weight, all dividend paying and on DRIPS. We would like to add another dividend paying, Dripable security to each account, preferably from an undervalued, different sector. Looking at an 8-10 year time frame. Could you offer a few suggestions?
Thanks so much.

Q: Peter I have a relatively large portfolio and safety net and am still working but don't have to be.
I was wondering if it might make sense to take a portion of cash (perhaps 10% of my assets) which I don't need and won't need in my lifetime and invest it in an aggressive segregated fund. I understand the downside is the cost of about 3% and locking in for 10 years but the upside is the ability reset in accordance with my gains and protect my principle. Would you consider such a move?

Q: I'm looking at TKM and wondering if you think there may be a chance they get taken out by ALNY given the court ruling in favour of TKM. With a fairly sizeable cash hoard it would seem like a good move for ALNY.

Q: 5i recently responded to a question on sector classification / weighting by stating that your ideal sector setup would have 'around 15 sectors' opposed to the TSX's 11. I'm curious to know what your ideal sector classification setup would be, and what your ideal sector weighting would be today given a blank slate for a risk on investor? IThis will allow me to vet my existing portfolio with your sectors to see how it stacks up and if its too overweight / underweight anywhere. Thank you.

Q: ENW had recent announcement with a large vegetable producer which I thought would have moved the stock upward. Shortly after this announcement it signs an undertaking with Raymond James for funding to build the processing equipment. Any reason the stock would drop, rather than rise on what appears to be good news?
