Q: I've held VEEV for a while and it seems to be stalled. Time to move on? If yes, would you recommend shifting the funds to bring ATZ up to 4%? Alternatively, is there another company in the health sector you would recommend in VEEV's stead? Medium-risk investor.

Thank you.

Q: Owning stocks is by nature an intangible asset. In the event, of lets say, a black swan event such as a cyber threat world wide and all our intangible assets are basically in digital form (as opposed to physical and tangible) what, if anything can an individual owning stocks do, if anything, to make that asset more tangible? I assume the stocks in all your model portfolios have been suggested because of they have been deemed higher rated companies, those more likely to survive any temporary stock market crash. But can we make owning them more tangible or are we fully at the mercy of the Internet?

Q: Hi,
I initiated small positions in EGLX and MRS a while back. Down 32% and 53% respectively so the small position is even smaller. Should I just be patient with these two? Or move the MRS portion to EGLX? Or vice versa? Or even getting out of them altogether and putting the funds in another name?
They are in my TFSA so no tax implications.
Thanks

Q: I watched the interview on BNN with Mr. Bedard this morning and a couple of things jumped out at me. This is a company that has so far produced 400 vehicles building a 900,000 sq. ft. plant that is capable of producing 20,000 vehicles a year and is the largest of it's type in the U.S. ..... Nobody does something like that without a good reason for it. That would be like British Properties making the Lions Gate bridge ten lanes because " Maybe we'll need them someday " .... And the CIBC analyst expectations of revenue of $92 million going to $454 million in one year ..... Sure can't see that on the basis of telling the salesmen to " Go out and see if you can flog these things " ..... My brain says there is a reason for the plant and the analysts expectations ..... Any idea what that might be ?
