Q: Hi, are there consensus numbers for Spin Master earnings next week? I'm curious to see if the consensus numbers are lower for the Q1 to reflect a likely higher-than-normal return rate, which as you said before would likely show up in Q1. Or do you think everyone is just looking past this now with the recent positive new product and corporate announcements. My guess is that they will show a double amount of return rate (I was interested to see that if you look at their past financials, there is usually about 5% or so allocated to this anyways, so just a fact of life for electronic toys I think), which will have a measurable impact on the Q earnings but not a large impact.

Q: Hi Guys,

I was surprised to see that you sold the entire position of CXI in the balanced portfolio on May 1st, considering I asked April 19th which 5 companies I should start with as I built up the portfolio, and you included CXI in your top picks:

"AIF, PKI, MG, SYZ and CXI look attractive today"

In any event, I understand things can change quickly. Do you think CXI is worth holding still, I'm down 5%.

Also, I'm ready to purchase 5 more names in the portfolio, can you let me know which are looking most attractive today?

Thanks,

Jamie

Q: Hi,

I was fortunate enough to purchase ABT below $7.00. Bought for tech exposure and for income. Has been very strong over the last 6 months. Do you see anything in particular driving the strength or is it more the natural ups and downs of the market?

Regards,

Robert

Q: Not so much a question but rather a statement. I know you mentioned before that you didn't think your subscription was big enough to considerably impact share price following buy/sell advice. But I would think that yesterdays share price movement for DBO following their removal from coverage was possibly due to a mass exodus by subscribers.It dropped 10% (52 week low) first thing in the morning and bounced back 12% today. For the super small caps it may sometimes be better for us subscribers to wait out the panic selling the next morning. Thanks!

Q: Currently building the BE portfolio. In Technology, I only own CSU, looking for a second name to add. Which company would you add for diversification? If you think I should add two half positions that would be OK too. Thanks!

Q: The accelerating economic trend towards online commerce is one I feel is woefully underrepresented in my current portfolio. How would you suggest I address this today? Buy AMZN? Buy SHOP? Would half positions make sense given the strong runs these stocks have had?
