In view of the coronavirus concerns, which are the companies you would recommend now as likely to grow strongly in the search for a vaccine or in the production of the equipment needed for fighting the spread of this virus ?

Q: I've dug back in your past Q&A on this stock. I see you mention that this company has a high debt load. From what I gather, debt : capital is in the 55% range if I'm reading the figures correctly. Do you consider this high / worrisome? Is there a different metric you use that raises a concern.
I know this is a cyclical stock and am not planning to buy today, but want to put this info in my back pocket for a future purchase if the company is on solid ground.

For what it's worth, I agree with Kyle's comment yesterday about "Free Markets" (or lack thereof). With markets close to record highs and low interest rates robbing retirees of income from interest-bearing investments, do Central Banks feel they have an obligation to continually goose the market, or at least put a floor under it? Debt just keeps climbing at all levels. Will be interesting (scary?) when the music stops.

Q: Hello: I sold BABA and cut TCEHY holdings in half last week in a bit of a panic and would now like to know of any US stocks you might suggest to replace these two. I already own GOOGLE.
Thanks. Lesley

Q: Hi there. It seems like in this Coronavirus hysteria nobody is excited about testing or treating cancer based on the trading of Guardant and Exact sciences. Do you like the current levels as a nice entry point for a speculative and long term position in each? It seems oversold unless I am missing a fundamental problem. To put a sharp point on the question, are they good buys today?

Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i
I greatly appreciate and follow your US recommendations. My LIF has suffered serious losses and I wound like to build it back up with one of these US holdings or another you could suggest for a 2-3 year period. If all are suitable, please list in order of preference based on growth over risk.
Thanks
