Q: Hi, I need to raise some USD cash and considering selling Berkshire Hathaway shares (Holding 100 shares). Bought recently at USD220, but shares have languished with the market decline and unable to regain much strength. Recent softness in Apple shares (large BRK holding) also has n't helped. Somehow, Mr Buffet's aura seems to be fading a bit, I feel. In the financial sector, I own no US banks but a decent CDN banks holding. Rest of my small US portfolio is all major FAANG names and DIS/V/MA/UTX. Do you see any major catalysts in near term for BRK B shares, besides market turn around/US China trade deal ? Thanks

Q: May I have your thoughts about Conmed Corporation? They seem to be doing well. Are they profitable with positive cash flow, are they deeply in debt, any insider ownership and do they have a niche which offers some protection from Stryker and other "big boys"? How is their record for beating or at least matching expectations? We already own ISRG for a 3% weighting and PFE having a 3.4% weighting in our healthcare sector.
Thanks,
Jim

Q: Hi my question is on Visa/MasterCard. Some consensus says you can tuck away theses stocks for 10 years without too much worry. On the other side, I understand in China and some Asian markets Alibaba uses a different payment system. With emerging blockchain capabilities is there some disruption to Visa's growth. Comments? I am thinking of a new purchase with 3 year time horizon. Do you have a recent report.
