Q: I am a recent subscriber to your service, and I find it to be excellent. Thank you.

I am in the process of looking for a low risk US stock. Dividends are not necessary. I was considering IBM given its leadership in analytics. What is your view? Do you recommend other US stocks, with a 2-5 year time horizon?

Q: I recently asked a question about tax loss selling in the US and Canada that obviously wasn’t clear enough.
I wanted to know how tax loss selling in the US for an American investor compares to Canada for a Canadian investor. How similar are the tax implications, rules etc.?
Thanks, Hugh

Q: ATVI - Milan on October 15 questioned about ATVI and you said it was fine to buy. Also on October 15 there was an article that ATVI along with a joint venture with other companies were going to put 500 Veterans to work. Following that, over the next 2 days the stock dropped over 10%. Your thoughts on this drop.
TEAM - On October 19 John asked a question about the quarterly results, and you indicated you were fine with the results. Over the next 2 days, the stock dropped over 10%. How come?
Would I be better to sell ATVI and TEAM and add it to my holdings of ILMN and SQ? Thanks Dennis.

Q: I still like Celgene, but I'm considering harvesting a tax loss on it. What pharma stocks would you recommend I replace it with? Or would you wait the 30 days and hope to buy CELG back at a similar level again? I think every ounce of bad news is baked into it and so it might have some big upside if things like the patent fight on Revlimid work out in CELG's favor.

Q: Question 1 - TEAM has announced quarterly results and can you comment this.

Question 2 - There is reference to IFRS and Non IFRS financial information.
I find this confusing. On one basis the results appear good, on the other not so good. I feel more comfortable with the Non IFRS reporting. Can I discount discount/ignore the IFRS method or is this the wrong thing to do.
Appreciate your guidance.
John
