Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I had planned to sell some or all of my shares of WB, when suddenly, this offer with MTN happened. I have a nice capital gain (222.99%) since buying the shares in 2011. Also nice is the share price increase as a result of the deal announcement. However, the dividend has been flat/no increases since 2011. Questions: Is is in my best interest to wait till the deal goes through and then sell? What happens if I sell now to take advantage of the pop in the WB price?

Q: Just an FYI for David. I first bought SYZ in early 2006 At $2.40. I have owned it ever since. I have never had an issue adding to the stock on dips nor an issue selling when I needed to take some off the table.Including the dividends it is probably the best ( most Consistent) ATM I have owned. If 5i likes it chances are strong that it is a winner Thanx Robbie

Q: I asked a question on PM soon after the takeover bid concerning the possibility of an increase in the share price before closure of the deal. Thanks to your answer, I held on and, lo and behold, the price has increased some 10% in the last few days. As before, I has difficulty in getting news (all I got so far is a circular about the meeting to vote for the deal). Is the price increase due to a dividend? Thanks as ever. henry

Q: I patiently hold AVO (at an approx 20% loss) and see that it is still maintained within the growth portfolio. You've mentioned previously that it is a frustrating name. What would it take to lose your interest? Is there any sign(s) that it will begin to behave better or should I be prepared for a long, patient wait with this name? I like the space that it is in and can't see why it doesn't perform better.

As always, I appreciate you insight.
