Q: While the market remains buoyant, Knight's CEO seems to be remaining patient for a major reset bringing potential buyout company prices spiralling downward. I am ok with that but he seems to have laid an egg with TherapeuticsMD by paying $20M for rights to just two of their drugs for Canada and Israel plus buying $20M of stock at $5.10 and is now down over 40% in a short time frame. What do you think of this deal and the potential of these drugs? It was, at least, good to see one company pay for rights to the rest of the world outside the US. Are they a legitimate partner?
Thanks.

Q: I own all of these in equal weighting (7% each). Down quite a bit on NFI. Just seeing if I should keep it and give it the long term (10 years) to provide a good return or sell because there is a better company to replace it with for a better long term performance at this point. Any other recommendations as I do have some cash side lined at this point (30%).

Q: I own the above companies with the following corresponding weighting:
2.6%;1.3%;2.2%;2.5%;2.7%;2.2%. I am looking at the possibility of doing some consolidating - what are your thoughts on consolidating? If I consolidate - what 1 or possibly 2 companies would you eliminate and what 1 or 2 companies would you add to?
Use as many of my questions as you need and thanks for your excellent service.

Q: I would like to know what the Management and employees have been doing other than collect salaries for the past 5 years, other than a few small acquisitions and filings with the authorities it seems to me that they do not deserve much compensation. I can't see them "working" 50+ hours a week looking at investments day in and day out year after year. What have they been doing? Goodman raised a ton of money at $10.50 or $11.00. I would like to see Goodman and his management team paid a salary of $1 per annum (just as Steve Jobs did) and be paid with stock options, not at the current value but at $10.50 or $11.00. I have put my faith in this guy but like a lot of shareholders I think its time to move on from Goodman and his underperforming company. Goodman's talk of an overnight success for my grandchildren does not give me much comfort. I was hoping for more of a shake up yesterday and was disappointed it did not occur. The fact that his Dad owns a company that competes with Knight was something new that I did not know when I purchased GUD shares.

Q: What are your thoughts regarding Medison's open letter today to GUD shareholders? their campaign seams to have gathered quite a bit of momentum if we believe all that is written. Is this necessarily a bad thing? I have been here from the start and i'm not sure what to do. Not much reaction in the stock today. Your comments would be much appreciated as always.
thanks,
John
