Q: All of my Spec Stocks, the ones listed above, each represent less than 1% of my cash Portfolio. With regard to your article discussing having stocks thta are less than 1% of portfolio weighting, I am thinking of selling 3 or 4 of these stocks and putting them all into one or two of the above stocks that show the best potential. I am down in all of them but to a lesser amount in GPS and CRH. Which, if any, would you say would be the keepers of the bunch?
Thanks
Kevin

Q: Morning,

The stocks mentioned are examples of Canadian stories that remarkable runs in recent years. PHO had an amazing 2017 and obviously CXR made those who sold high a ton of money. Same with CRH. Question is, for 2018, can you name 3 Canadian stocks that may be under the radar but could emerge as darlings once better known? Specific interest would be in stocks with proven assets or concepts more so than those waiting for a stroke of luck like a drug approval or patent.

Thanks!

Q: Excellent Q&A on BNN today. Question #1: CRH has shown a substantial improvement over the last 3 months & I believe it will continue. Your thoughts! RHT has really just imurged but, I think if could easily move up 1-2 dollars this year . Please comment. CBW is very confusing with all its numerous financings however, I would appreciate your opinion. Thank you.

Q: CRH has rebounded off its low of $1.90 on Nov 15th, today it is $3.10 on decent volume.
Has there been any sign of insider buying or share buybacks since the normal course issuer bid was announced?
Could there still be some tax loss selling still to come?
A market call guest noted that breaking above $3.30 on volume would be a positive sign.. do you agree?

Also, what are your long term thoughts of the stock, 3+ years.

Thanks!

Q: I own crh in my tfsa, the loss is 80% and the current market value of the stock is just over $1400. I concur that the stock is on a losing ride and will probably fall even more for stock loss selling but since that doesn't apply to me. Is there a case for just holding on to a really lousy stock and perhaps there might be a turn around way down the road. As always thank you.
