Investment Q&A

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

Q: I'm trying to get a handle on VMD's valuation; the equity has fallen sharply in the face of what appear to be outstanding results and expressions of continuing responsiveness by management with respect to their prospects. Yet the market seems to be pricing the company as a one trick (Covid 19) exploitive pony. Or perhaps not? And is the overhang from prior days and the accompanying critique still valid? Thank you for your consideration.

Q: I have been following CVS for several years now, and currently hold a half position. During the past Q they were able to top analyst estimates for both revenue and EPS. They are also paying down their debt due to the purchase of Aetna. What do you think of their future prospects as a dividend income investment with some stock price appreciation?

Q: Hello Peter, many individual investors (certainly I) have terrible timing on their transactions. For example, if one has been following Becton Dickinson, looking to buy, one might be happy to see this morning's 8% drop and immediately place their order. How do you handle this type of situation? Wait and see where the dust settles? Jump on the 'new lower price'? Or wait some days or weeks to see a base and an upturn? Would you be comfortable buying BDX today, for the long term?
