Q: Hello team,

In order to diversify the portfolio I am looking for some investments in biotech. Since Google recently declared the project for early cancer diagnostics based on nanotech I trust it could be fast growing area (risks are high of course...I understand). At the same time regardless of Google declarations (which might positively affect stock of nanotech companies) their stock behaves consistently bad. Three companies I took are just the example. So stock behavior varies from catastrophic with NSPH to just not good with BIND. Do you have any ideas - is it company related issue or it is trend which shows that market "doesn't believe"?

Q: I am looking for diversification away from the Canadian market; many sectors have obvious choices whereas others do not. In Industrials, would you recommend Precision Castparts (PCP), Colfax (CFX) or another name? In healthcare, would you recommend something like JNJ even though it is enormous or have valuations in this sector been stretched? JNJ gives you some consumer staples exposure. My time horizon is 20 years. Again, I am looking for diversification away from what we have access to in Canada. Thanks for the great help!

Q: CBM one I have seen you mention before pulled back sharply on Friday and has since recovered somewhat by the end of the day up to $37.00. Super Micro has dropped about 35% since January. Seeking Alpha has said that this is a buy at the $30.00 range. What is your opinion on these two US stocks? Dennis

Q: Canadian Solar is trading on the US stock exchange and, to my knowledge, is not trading in Canada although a Canadian Company. I would be interested in your assessment of this Company. With the demand for solar expanding and the cost of solar panels dropping it would seem like a good long term investment. What do you think.

Q: Hi there,

I have been looking for an entry point for this technology player and am wondering if you think this is a good entry point. I show 25X this year's earnings - but it is off from its high and i have struggled with its valuation but the stock has always been pricey compared to its canadian counterparts. Do you think there is more downside here and a better entry point or worth stepping in now.
