Q: My question is with respect to growth stocks which we know are rapidly losing favour in a shift to value stocks. In this environment and knowing declines could continue for some time, why would an investor not sell growth stocks and move to value stocks? It doesn't seem to me prudent to keep riding the wave down.But I know market timing is a mug's game.
Also, given its size, is Constellation Software (CSU) a growth or value stock or is it a bit of a hybrid?
Thank you, Peter

Q: Hi Peter,

I have $5000 burning a hole in my pocket, which I would like to turn into a "nice graduating gift" for my grandson. My timeframe is 4 years. What's your absolute best pick for growth at this time? I know this sounds a bit like going to the Oracle at Delphi, but it seems to work. You've provided so many excellent suggestions from which I've garnered some very nice returns ... and now I can't pick just one! Success, ironically, may be the bane of your chosen profession. Thanks so much for this wonderful service.

Q: Hi Peter,

You mentioned some time ago that if you could one Canadian growth stock it would be Avigilon. The recent price action on the stock has been pretty frustrating for every investor. Have your views changed in any way. What should one do in a situation when the purchase price is around $30 and now it is going lower every minute as we speak. Would you recommend selling AVO and moving into something like WCP or SGY.

Q: Hi. Your response to Denis on CUS leads me to think you might not be aware that the dividend has been cut.

From the earnings release.

"The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per common share, representing a 27% reduction from the previous quarterly dividend of $0.1368"

Q: AVO revisited: The central issue seems to be the CFO departure and whether it is health related. Why doesn't he simply issue a statement confirming or denying this? I noticed the CEO did not mention health in his interview. He actually tap danced around the issue saying "don't read too much into it". He could put an to this as well by issuing a statement that is more direct and less ambiguous.

In all likelihood they have made millions with AVO in part because so many of us have bought the shares. I would think given the circunmstances both of them owe their fellow shareholders an explanation. Otherwise this dark cloud is not going to disappear for quite a while. And innocent shareholders will suffer!!!
