Q: Hi folks, waited for tax loss season and bought full position in Knight for my TFSA . What significance, if any, does..."Signed a new exclusive distribution agreement with Gilead for the continued commercialization of AmBisome in Brazil, effective Jan. 1, 2021.", have for Knight. The potentials with Knight seem pretty good...even if they work at a snail's pace. Overall opinion on company into 2021. Thanks as always, jb Piedmont QC

Q: I own XHC in a registered account. No heathcare in my non-registered account, looking to pick up 2-4% position. GUD and WELL have lots of info in the reports, similar comments on cash and acqisition strategy but the charts are very different. What one would you prefer for 4% or 2% each? Any others that I should consider / review?
Thanks,
Travis

Q: Can you comment on any recent insider buying or selling for GUD. E.g. has the CEO bought any large chunks? I am curious if there has been some insider purchasing/selling either before or after the shelf filing. If there has been buying, what do you think are the odds that there might be an acquisition in the works. I bought GUD at $5 and am trying to decide whether to hold, sell, or top up. Because everything else in my portfolio has done so well this year (all fantastic 5i suggestions), GUD has decreased to 1.3% of total holdings.

Q: Hi Peter, re: your reply to Jamie re: GUD; why will earnings fall next year ? Aren't they currently close to zero ? Shouldn't the new mfg ability increase earnings ?
This is currently the sole loser in my portfolio (as I'm getting good at cutting losses before they get worse) but like many I've held on it to doggedly for years despite its chart since I really want Jonathan G to do well. There's definitely a lesson in that. Thanks, Paul

Q: Hi Gents,

Wondering if you could speak to the value of GUD shares.
My calculations are that there is $3.31/sh in cash, which at Friday's price of $5.29, leaves $1.98 for the rest of company.
At $1.98 the company ex cash is worth about $260M. My modeling shows a forward P/E ex cash below 8x. Plus you get the potential of another game-changing acquisition which would likely be very accretive.

What am I missing here at $5.30/sh??

Q: Good afternoon, I'm feeling grouchy about my TFSA today. Quite a few of my holdings are underwater. Tech is the only area that has shown me any growth. I am down 46% on XTC, down 80% on HWO, down 36% on GUD, down 6% on BCI, up 5% on DOL, and down 6% on SIS. I know I can't claim losses but is it time to dump some of these and redeploy. I don't need the cash and can be quite patient and I know my tech weightings are getting high but it seems as though that's where most of my winners are. How high would you let your tech weighting go in a TFSA that is a long term savings vehicle. Thoughts?
