This is a radio/TV enthusiasts discussion board.    Would you recommend that people who post here direct a portion of savings (self administered RRSP, etc) to telecommunications/cable companies, even though the return on investment has been pathetic (your term) or would you recommend they avoid the likes of Bell, Corus, Rogers & Telus?


 

I am not a financial advisor, so I don't advise or recommend to people on anything about their money or investments.  I also never said anything about the return on investment with telecommunications/cable companies, you brought it up with figures regarding these businesses.  What I said was that the TSX was up about 36% overall from a year ago, so if you haven't had any increase in the value of your portfolio in the last year, you have a poor advisor.  What you want to invest in or not invest ultimately is up to you,
