Q: Cipher is improving and the stock is trending up. With that being said, Knight looks better for the long term if they ever deploy their cash hoard. I currently have a half position in Cipher where a tax loss can be harvested. Take the tax loss and top up my position in Knight while it's down?
Thanks!

Q: All three of these companies were once market darlings that have fallen from their more favorable market days and are now attempting turnarounds. Do any of these companies appear to be a turnaround buy at their current levels? If not,and if they sit in one's portfolio, should they be ejected? if so, how would they rate from worst (eject 1st)to best (still hope, eject last).
Thanks!

Q: I currently have 1/2 positions in MSL,CPH and SVC. MSL and CPH look like dead money with not a lot of growth potential going forward. SVC looks okay. I'm looking to enter a full position with PHO using proceeds from the sale of MSL and CPH (I would keep SVC for now and monitor). For heath care representation in my portfolio, I have a full position in GUD already (thanks 5i)! For a growth oriented portfolio, will this be a good move 3-5 years out? What do you consider an attractive entry point for PHO?

Thanks!

Q: I am a 21 year old investor with a long investment horizon. In my TFSA, both CPH and MRE have stagnated and I am thinking of selling these and moving on. Would you endorse this move and if so, could you recommend your top 2 names (any sector) to replace them?

Thank You!

I have replicated both my RRSP and TFSA accounts to hold many of the holdings in both the Balanced and Growth Portfolios save and except CGI and Cipher. I have reviewed your comments on theses companies but would like some specific advice if you think I should swap these out or continue to hold. I currently hold all your teck recommendations except OTC and have full positions in GUD and SIS
Thank you for your exceptional advice and guidance.
