Q: A cure is a non-technical term so we need to be careful. Not to beat a dead horse (too much anyways)...Gilead is not offering a "cure" to Covid-19. Their drug was used as a treatment on USA patient 1 in Washington State, a young man who the doctors feared was dying from Covid-19. After receiving the injection he recovered almost immediately and was discharged from the hospital a few days later. Gilead's drug was entered into FDA trials and was shown to be effective for 30% of the people. While this percentage seems small the drug was considered so effective all the people on the placebo were put on the drug. Society is looking for a vaccine which will prevent people from getting Covid-19. This will likely prove more of a challenge to the health industry. Vaccines sometimes offer long term immunity but sometimes the immunity dies out - that is why we need Tetanus booster shots every 10 years or so. Dr. Fauci is on record as feeling a vaccine is "doable" by January 2021.

Q: What are thoughts on this company? It falls under industrials but is more about financial/tech so would a 1/3 allocation to each sector make sense?

Q: I have a 5.5% weighting in my portfolio. About 130% gain in a non-registered account. The economy is ground to a halt abruptly probably for quite a few months if not years. I wonder if it is a good time to trim down, bite the bullet and pay the capital gains tax at the high marginal tax rate and buy back to full position when it reaches the bottom? or grin and bear some near term volatility, stick with it for the long term as the economy will be back in a year or two?
