Q: Greetings: I still hold ENL from back in the Paladin days. It and Knight (GUD) make up about 3% each of my portfolio. Endo's quarterly statement seemed fairly positive to me, but the stock dropped significantly. Is it in the same boat as Concordia and Valeant. In other words, should I continue to hold it, or is there some problem. If you say it is similar to Concordia, I will probably just keep it. Thanks, as always, for valued opinion.

Q: I currently have no exposure to the health care sector in my portfolio. I'm looking for companies that pay a bit of a dividend which is sustainable and have the ability to provide some steady capital appreciation. I realize that American stocks are not your expertise, but keeping my criteria in mind and watching what's going on with Canadian health care, I would appreciate your opinion on three American companies. Gilead, JNJ, and Walgreens.
Looking to the future, which of these companies has the best prospects? (keeping capital gain and dividend growth in mind)
Which 2 Canadian companies who you add to diversify my health care holdings?
Thanks for your guidance.

Q: Good morning,

I have been reading many more articles recently regarding the macro trend toward organic and non anti-biotic raised food. Major food chains such as A&W (thanks very much for the investing idea!) and now McDonalds (large restaurant chain in the world) offering meals with non anti-biotically raised animals.

Can you please provide your perspective on this as well as the best way for an individual investor to participate in this macro trend. Please provide best equity or other opportunities in this space either in Canada or in US.

Thanks as always for the independent perspective you provide!

Q: Your research report on Gildan states

"Gildan has significant exposure to cotton prices, which can have a big
impact on the bottom line. The company says fluctuations and volatility
in the price of cotton and polyester fibres is a big risk."

Is there any reason the company would not hedge these risks through cotton futures or even oil futures (for the polyester price risk)? It seems to me that this is exactly why these futures exist, to serve the producers and smooth their earnings cycles. Thanks, J.
