Likes gold and all the major gold companies are great.
TOP PICK
One of the largest single property/casualty insurance companies in Canada. Had a bit of a downer with its investment portfolio but are currently very confident of moving back into an acquisition mode. Have excess capital so do not need to raise debt. Brilliantly run.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 12/07. Down 31%.) Depends on the ability of selling to cautious farmers.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 12/07. Down 73%.) A fund that contains the global markets. Sold his holdings.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 12/07. Down 86%.) Oil sands. Carried down heavily with all oil/gas companies. Very long-term development plans. Needs a great improvement in the sector.
PARTIAL BUY
Little uneasy about the determination of governments to put a lot of money into infrastructure. This company is fine. Just don't go overboard in believing infrastructure is the magic potion.
COMMENT
Good dividend but there might be some jeopardy to it. Prefers BCE (BCE-T).
BUY
Now released from the takeover scenario it can now go forward through capable hands. Has such a low positioning in the market relative to others that it has everything to gain. Will be a good dividend payer.
BUY
Energy ETF. This gives you the safety of the index. A good time for taking a long-term point of view.
BUY
Financials ETF. This gives you the safety of the index. A good time for taking a long-term point of view.
BUY
Gold ETF. This gives you the safety of the index. He believes in gold. A good time for taking a long-term point of view.
BUY
Solid with good dividends of 4.25%. Quite aggressive as one of the few utilities we have.
HOLD
Filed for bankruptcy protection. Desperately trying to raise money. It doesn’t look good. If you own, it’s too late to sell for tax losses so hold if you don’t have much money in it.
BUY
Good time to buy if you are going to hold on a very, very long-term basis. Very nice secure dividend.
