By Fergal Smith TORONTO (Reuters) -The Canadian dollar steadied against its U.S. counterpart on Friday, holding on to a modest weekly gain, after softer-than-expected domestic jobs data that had only limited impact on expectations for Bank of Canada interest rate cuts.

Although many members of the FTSE 100 index of leading companies have long histories, that does not necessarily mean they will be around for a long time in the future. Of course, none of us knows how long a given company might last. Even the best company can run into unexpected challenges. That is one reason it is important for an investor to keep their portfolio…
