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

Q: Since May, Catamaran's stock price has gone up considerably, despite that it has agreed to be acquired (by United Health) at a set USD value. So is its CAD price fluctuation a trivial effect of the USD::CAD exchange rate, or are there still non-currency-arbitrage reasons to invest in CCT?

Q: What are your thoughts about today's press release? There appears to be a lot of things happening. The revenue increase looks good but what about the change in management team and share buyback program and the borrowing of $15 million.

Q: I would like to add a small cap health care company to complement my large cap US healthcare holdings ABBV and JNJ. The current portfolio allocation in healthcare is 8%. This is is comprised of the above companies plus sector contributions from VIG, IWO, SPY, and FEZ. I am considering GUD or CPH, and would appreciate any comments on this move (does this make sense, which one would you choose, etc). Thanks very much.

Q: GUD
I am impressed with the moves this company is making.I have a small position and am thinking of buying more. It looks good on potential, execution,market knowledge, industry savvy and connections.I am hesitant because of the fact that Mr. Goodman is such a dominant force in the company and what would happen should he be unable to contribution due to the unexpected.
Questions:
1.am I right to be careful
2.does he have a team that could manage with out him being involved.
your advice is appreciated.
thanks

Q: This one seems to me to fit the bill of investment in a good sector, investing in the U.S (supposedly a good place for the foreseeable future) and also taking advantage of US $ rising/ Cdn $ sinking. My finger is poised over the 'buy' button waiting for your advice. Thx, Art

Q: Hello 5i team,
Health/Pharma represents 10.5% of my RRIF portfolio; it comprises Concordia, Valeant and Cipher as core holdings and partial holdings (like an ETF) of CRH,GUD,PHM and RX.
I'm thinking of adding NHC to the latter; which of the last five would be your least favourite and why?
Thanks, as always
Antoine

Q: Good morning.

I've currently got 3% of my portfolio in Healthcare (AMGN and PHM split roughly 70/30) and would like to add to bring it up closer to 5%.

Currently thinking of adding more PHM or picking up some GUD but would appreciate your thoughts. This would be in my TFSA, so am comfortable with more risky assets. Maybe you think something different entirely?

Cam.

Q: How long before we know if this will play out? Given Goodman's endorsement of PRN and PDP, which of the two would you go with?
Read Answer Asked by James on June 26, 2015
Q: Hello Peter,
I still hold shares of PHM, and would like to add to the position; however, I am concerned that CEO, M. Dalsin is spreading his ideas across 3 companies: Patient home, convalo health, and Inspira (which supposedly will trade end of June) and is not focused one company. I am concerned that he will not be as focused on patient home, but also see the reasons for the other two: perhaps cross sells, etc Any comments please. I have not seen much news on why CRH medical continues to move upwards. Is there any news that you are aware of? Also, other than having a nasdaq listing, is there a reason for Concordia Healthcare's price movement? Many thanks for your advice.
