Q: I am looking at Concordia CXR. I know we have to look forward but this company was .96 a year ago, now around $36. It's not where it was was but where it is going but I can't get my head around the $36 price. I see they only have 14 million shares outstanding so that is a plus. But I am afraid as soon as I buy it they will do a financing to shore up the balance sheet and the stock will fall. Please help me forget where CXR was a year ago and think about the future.

Q: Hello Peter and the 5I research team
I am interested in CXR, it strikes me as begin a potentially great company. It has a great management team and a growing line up of drugs in their stable. It also seems to have great tax rate (blended tax rate in the single digits). Now do you see this company as a great take over candidate from larger US companies? I am thinking this company would be a great take over because of the "Corporate inversion" status that an American company could use with it. My guess is if it was a take over target that the take over would come rather, quickly before the US government can close the inversion tax loop. Does this idea sound possible? What are some of the pro's and con's of this company? Would you add it to a balanced growth portfolio? What do you think about a potential take over for this company?

Thank you

Q: I originally bought PPY under $2, so am obviously pleased that it closed at an all-time high of $14.17 yesterday. But it has been a volatile ride! Since they are surrounded by PETRONAS, and do drill some wells with them, do you think it is inevitable that PPY gets bought out by PETRONAS? Underpinning PPY's share price is their huge reserves and pristine balance sheet. I should take some profits, but the story is the best in the natural gas space right now, IMO. Thoughts?

Q: Is it too late to buy SCL? I started watching this company in early February, and was trying to pick up shares just below $40 but it never got to my purchase price. I have been watching it go up higher and higher ever since, and now it is over $60, that would be a 50% gain had I been able to buy at my (stubborn) price of below $40.

How strict on purchase price should I be when I decide I like a company and want to buy its shares? Should I be rigid and stick to my pre-determined price, or should I just buy at market price once I decide to acquire a position in a company (with a minimum of a 1 year hold)?

I still like SCL, and wish I had purchased it when I made the decision to buy some shares. Should I just buy SCL now at $60, or give up on it since it has had such a large run up, and find something else I like?
