Q: 2 question : So bomber has bounced a bit so time for me to suck it up and sell at a 30% loss. Sell now or hold off a few more days to see if it has some legs.

Once I sell BBD.b what full position of the balanced equity portfolio would you buy right now: ccl, gud, nfi, sis, sj, syz, t or toy? Currently rebalancing my CAD equity portfolio to loosely match your portfolio and those above fill gaps in my allocation. Open to off the list suggestions but already overweigh or OK in financials, energy and tech.

Q: I am wondering whether it is time for me to dump these two and put the money into something with a bit more of an uptrend. Am thinking of SIS for one. What's your opinion on the future trends of these three for the next 1 - 2 yrs?

Q: i agree with stevens question on knight.
i owned 40,000 shares of knight, i have been in since 6.00, now i have only 12,000 shares.i did well but honestly i expected more.
it is unlikely that jonathan goodman will do anything with his 760 million stash in 2017 , he is looking to buy something for almost nothing and what bothers me more than anything, is he raised money 4 times diluted the stock each time and then did nothing with the money and he clearly states it is a stock for your grandkids, so we could be waiting a decade or more and he also says paladin took 19 years to payoff.
my question is do you think maybe you are being too optimistic on this company especially since you have it in 2 portfolios.dave

Q: Knight Therapeutics (GUD) is my largest holding. Each morning, I get up and while doing the usual ten minute standing ab routine to get going, I wonder what Johnathan Goodman is doing. Unlike me, he has about $760M in cash in his pockets and, again unlike me, he seems unwilling to part with it. I completely understand this is a long term investment and I look at it as a form of security for our future but if he were to go out and buy "someone big" with a product line and a sales force, I can't help but dream that this stock will multiply significantly. Can you send him a message and tell him to start doing those ab exercises. He needs to get moving.
Am I being a little impatient and do you see any signs of activity that might be remotely encouraging?
Thanks.

Q: HI team,

I am looking to start a RESP with a 15+ year time line. My 5 month old son loves the stomach churning world of small cap investing, just like his old man. What are your thoughts on putting all 2500 of this year's contributions towards PHO at its current value. I was also considering allocating 1000 shares in PHO and the remaining in GUD. My thoughts are that we start off with some higher risk/growth opportunity, which can be throttled down as our time line decreases. I would appreciate any strategic guidance or alternative suggestions.

Thanks

Q: My wife and I just started out an resp for our 3 year old. We only have enough to start out with one position and are planing on adding a potion or two every year. We are ok with some risk at this stage. Can you recommend one or two stocks at his point in time with good potential over the next 5 to ten years? I was thinking GUD may be a good fit. You are the experts though.

Q: Can you rank the stocks best to worst in your opinion. These are the stock s that are in my healthcare sector which is 8% of my current portfolio. Would you add, swap or remove any of them? I am unsure of CRH. My portfolio holdings/thoughts are very similar to your BE Portfolio. Thank you

Q: Hi can you rate the above four companies in terms of long term growth potential, from best to worst. Safety should play a minor factor as well.

Thanks

Q: Based on available historical data, the above have compounded earnings > 10%. I intend to put these good companies into a RRIF to boost the return of a mostly bond/gic content.

In your opinion would you regard each of the above as a good company that should be able to provide a relatively stable future annual return of 8% to 10% with the exception of a market meltdown. Looking for some reassurance regarding the picks. Thank you.

Q: Hi,
I'm young and have good income, good risk tolerance and no need to withdrawal any of my investment dollars anytime soon. I'm looking for long term growth mostly. Currently I hold the listed stocks, do you see any names that jump out as really bad/ should sell? Is anything really lacking and maybe should be added? Right now everything is held in a tfsa.

Thanks!
Dave
