Q: I hold the following in loss positions and need to raise some money and sell 2 of these dogs. In the past I have sold my winners hoping for recovery on the losers but I am trying to fight the psychology of that tendency. Could you rank these in with the 1st ranked being the highest conviction sell. Also, if inclined perhaps you could comment and provide your perspective on this most annoying human trait. John

Q: Hi,

Based on guidance from CN, and results from TFII, would it be fair to say that we are in a recession. My experience over the years, is that CN always leads in and out of recessions by about 6 months in advance. Based on CN’s guidance, and had they not had record grain shipments for the last quarter, they would not have recorded the beat that they had. Would you agree?

I’m thinking of selling MED and adding to the balance of my cyclical positions. What are your thoughts on this portfolio of companies and which ones look most attractive today to add to?

For defensive, I only hold Costco. What companies would you suggest I look to diversify my defensive portfolio?
