Q: I hold these 3 healthcare stocks. Thinking of adding Lily. Do you see too much overlap in this combination or can you recommend others for diversification?

Q: Hello Peter,

We do not own LNTH as of yet but are watching the stock. When looking at sales and stock price for a 5-year period it was relatively flat. What event triggered a 3-fold increase in stock price? Was it one very large order for equipment in 2021 or a sustainable increase in equipment sales?

Cheers,
Debbie and Jerry

Q: I just sold off my Biogen holding and am looking for a replacement within the healthcare sector. I held Biogen for over 3 years and exited with a nice return, but I have to say that I did not enjoy the wild ride and price swings as it seemed to trade solely on its new Alzheimer’s drug advancements and setbacks. So now I am looking to replace it with something a little more stable but still with the expectation of slow and steady growth. What would be your top 1 or 2 picks be today for both the US and Canada that might fit. I already own Savaria and XLV so something besides these.

Q: Hi 5i
PFE ($49.36) has had a nice run. Any worries of a backlash against them as we all keep getting jabs and yet keep getting COVID? The virus mutates faster than they can come up with new vaccines. Will investors start to worry that this giant boost to revenue may disappear?
-And side question-how have your portfolios fared this year? Just curious since you don't own any Canadian stocks, have you managed to avoid major declines?

Q: Further to your response to an inquiry about Knight Therapeutic results, could you comment in any detail on management performance. They have been in charge for at least five years, the cash position is down from $800M to $145M {after buying GBT and company shares, etc.) and the stock price is down half from the $10 plus when Goodman brought them in and then disappeared.
I know he had an accident, but I saw him on BNN a couple of years ago and he looked fine, just made too much money on Paladin.
There just doesn't seem to be any drive to improve the company and increase shareholder value. Management seems unmotivated. Should Goodman replace them or sell the company to someone who can realize it's potential before I turn 100?
Thank youl.
