Investment Q&A

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

Q: I've held Cynosure (CYNO) for a few years and it recently received an all cash offer for $66 a share; however, now some law firm has come out questioning "whether the Company’s Board of Directors failed to satisfy their duties to shareholders, including whether the Board adequately pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the Board obtained the best price possible for the Company’s shares of common stock."
The stock went has high as $66.65 on the news but is currently hovering just above $66.
In these types of situations does this often result in a higher offer? I am tempted to hold and see what happens if there is essentially no risk but I would also like to sell now to get the cash. What would you do?

Q: I've enjoyed a quick run-up on TH. It now represents an 8% portfolio weight. My questions is two parts. First, could you comment on their prospects? Their earnings should be growing and they are adding a drug to their offering. As a thing trader, there could be a big run-up as the story gains traction.
Second, in a case like this where there is a quick run-up and the portfolio weighting becomes large, when is it time to trim? It seems to me that using portfolio weight as your only guide could mean missing big gains if you're early on a good company.
