Q: There were a lot of people calling into Jim Kramer (Mad Money) about this market drop - as it is difficult to understand him, he was saying don't average done (basically) wait until the market stabilizes, etc. and when the market does, good stocks (i.e. Fang stocks) would be one of the first to lead the market out of this. There was a rate hike and Trump seemed to be going after a trade war with the Chinese which Kramer seemed to be saying was the cause. Two weeks ago Larry Berman predicted there would be a 20% drop within the next 12 months. How do you see this and what are your recommendations? What is a good ETF for Fang stocks? Thank you Dennis

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I see there report was a positive surprise. However up 30%...do you think that move is warranted? Please give what you think are all the reasons why such a bounce...What comes to my mind is that the restructuring is working, the dividend is now safe, and the short sellers got killed. By it's nature it seems to be rather volatile.
Thanks!

Q: Hello team,

Would you kindly give us an update on TDOC? Would you agree that it is an Amazon like company in the healthcare system? Or is that too lofty a description and it may not be able to ramp up its business the same as Amazon has? How is TDOC cash and debt positions now? Do you think that the stock is too expensive? Has the management been shareholder friendly? Are they selling more than buying? Would you think the company would have to dilute shares again to raise money soon? And finally do they have any competitive advantage and can grow organically or do they have to keep buying the competitors?

Would you be a buyer at the current price, after all is said?

Thank you for your great knowledge and assistance!

Q: 5th Estate program on "kickbacks" in generic drugs pretty eye opening. I realize there is a difference between monies paid directly to an individual for favours v's monies going to the company entity for overhead and other costs but appears they plead guilty to a wrong doing. Could this not set them up for class action suits for customers to may have been over charged? The other worrisome part seemed to be the practice is widespread. Talk about a bread scandal. Is there a worry here or do you think 5th Estate may have over exaggerated what is actually going on with generic drug pricing?
