Q: Hello 5i team,
I have a question in terms of buying the dips for Gildan Activewear Inc. I initially bought roughly a half position around the time you issued the buy recommendation for GIL at $49.33. Since the poor recent quarter and guidance downwards for the next year, the stock has dropped to $34.26 as I write this.

It seems this is purely market driven as appose to company fault. If I plan to hold this long term (~5 years), would it be a good idea to add to my current position? I know you are not a fan of averaging down, but isn't buying the dip the same thing?

Q: In Maple Leaf's news release, they mention the Chinese import ban of Canadian pork affecting their bottom line. It sound's like they export pork to China. I hold PBH and would like to similarily understand the mechanics of how China's pork issue may affect PBH. Does PBH export pork products to China that would be subject to a ban? On the other hand, is it possible that lower North American pork prices could be positive to PBH as an input cost? Thanks.
