Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have a position of about 4% in JNJ, which is still showing a return on investment of 52% even after last week's plunge. It's in a regular account so is liable for tax. In view of the current litigation concerns, would you recommend that I hang tight and see if it comes back, sell the lot and get out while I am ahead, or hedge and sell half. I am what most people would consider to be elderly - I don't have twenty years to wait for a recovery.

Q: Hi

I have not had time to do the research lately, but what is happening to SIS. I bought it at $16.60 abut a month ago when it was showing good potential and growth. I know that the stock market is turbulent right now, and affecting good companies negatively, but did I miss something important about this company. I bought 300 shares, should I hold on to them or is there something tragic looming on the horizon for SIS.

Q: I am aware that these companies have high debt levels. However, would you view any one of them investable? Or would there be similar companies with better growth prospects?
Thanks for your input!

Q: Hello Peter,
With the cannabis stocks trading 50% below the legalization date, I would have thought any big companies that wanted to take an equity position in cannabis companies like Canntrust , Aphria, etc would have done it by now. Any thoughts on this? Also, I am starting to wonder if Knight is worth letting go now. This looks like a 30 year timeframe stock the way it is going... Appreciate the comments

Q: My biggest position is in Knight and my two biggest concerns are the possibility that Mr. Goodman's health is deteriorating following his accident which could affect his zeal for a large deal and, second, if his reputation as a bargain-hunter is precluding him from having access to good deals as sellers may only view him as a desperate last resort.
Finally, the trading in this stock seems consumed by day traders generating a flurry of orders following the limited buy/sell from real investors. Is someone propping this stock up to generate action while the shareholder base yawns through the daily action waiting with exasperation for the company to put their $800M to WORK!!
Thank you.
