Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
I have a bit of cash in an account that very closely tracks the "Balanced Equity Portfolio". My weightings in GUD and CLS are a bit light now due to their share's pulling back. Both stocks look cheap to me and tax loss selling season is likely helping to suppress them. I would appreciate your opinion of adding to these two names. Thank you for your sage advice. DL

Q: In your reply to Brenda you indicated earnings growth for CLS next year.
RBC shows 2016 $1.40, 2017 $1.23, and 2018 $1.29.
I am wondering what numbers your research shows?
Also, at today's price would you be comfortable buying or would selling a March put be a worthwhile strategy?
Many thanks.
Mike

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have not given up on CLS either. I have been following the company for some time and waiting for a good entry point. For several reasons its momentum is down and technically it is breaking down. I guess it looks like a falling knife...I notice it's TP has been lowered to $12.50. I know you do not give predictions on price. So I am wondering what your thoughts are about it's direction and momentum. I know investors over react in both directions. Do you think it is looking over sold? Do you think this $12.50 might put in a floor? Better to wait a week or two until the dust settles? Would buying now be classified as a small contrarian play on a value stock?
Thanks for your invaluable expertise!

Q: You seem to like Covalon a lot and I wonder what you are seeing that it might be worth investing in.
It looks to me that their product line is not very diversified....and a Chinese copycat could easily move in.
If you had a choice between COV,KXS or CLS what would be your pick be in order without looking at sectors?

Q: Hello Peter/Ryan & Team,

I do need to apologize to everyone about CLS. I decided to finally buy it so naturally the 12% decline the next day would happen. But I have smartened up and only started with a quarter position.

And you would think that I should start to smarten up about buying into negative momentum, but with that said, do you think I should be adding in the next couple months to get to a full position or wait off until momentum improves?

Thank you for all you do.

Q: Hi Peter, I am looking for a growth replacement for CLS and it can come from any of your portfolios. Please suggest your top 3 or 4. I already own PHO, PUR, TV and ZCL in a 29 stock portfolio. Time frame 1-3 year hold.

Many thanks for your candid advice. It has served me well for over 4 years now and I have renewed my membership for 2 more years.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Thank you for your past analysis of these two separate companies. I now have another dilemma. FLEX has just had a great quarter and the stock has hit a new 52 week high of $18.01. TD has a TP of $21.00...so all looks good. On the other hand CLS just had a miss and weaker guidance...being punished today...at $13 plus. You have said the story is still intact and they should improve. So... on the one hand I have FLEX which I think I could call a value play vs CLS which I will call at this point a more contrarian play. So in light of there fundamentals going forward which company has great appreciation? In other words is it too late to buy FLEX...better value with CLS in the long run?
Thanks for your opinion...

Q: I'm looking to establish a position in the tech sector. I'd prefer something with a reasonable valuation, good growth prospects and insider ownership. I see on BNN today you recommend both CLS and ABT. Are either of those a fit for my criteria or would you suggest something different?

Q: I am trying to replicate the Growth as well as the Balanced Portfolios. I have funds to add two half positions and the 7 stocks listed are the only stocks I currently do not hold. Which would be your top 2 picks and what is the rationale.

Many thanks
