Q: Hey guys,

MDT gets lots of love on here but seems to be losing a bit of steam. The chart is concerning and it appears ready to test the 82.50 mark. Do you continue to like it and how far are you willing to tolerate what appears to be a downtrend? Hold with conviction or is there a point you throw in the towel?

Q: Well, this sort of thing is alarming. DR is down almost 5% with selling at noon exceeding the average daily numbers. The only news I see is the dividend announcement.

Who is selling? On what information does someone unload like this? How do I get such, presumably, useful information?

Q: ISRG reports today after market close. I seem to recall that they missed consensus in the previous quarter. I think these are factors in the recent market weakness.

Q: Considering the tone if the release this morning on Knight's Directors, I would take a wild guess it was commissioned by Jakobsohn.
Goodman put his pharmascience shares in a blind trust. This NR is no big deal...

Q: Hi. I can see that Dave has just asked my question about selling GUD given its current turmoil... so I won't ask that; however, even with keeping GUD I have too little exposure in the health care sector bc I sold JJ in January. Can you provide the names of any Canadian Health Care companies I could check out. Thanks,

Sue
