Q: Any idea why GC crashed and burned today on no news?

Q: Hi All,
Just a comment about DR.
Your comment today on DR says that insider buying is only 1%. However, the doctors own approx. 45% of the company and DR equity holders 55%. We have owned DR in 3 portfolios since 2006 and are verrry pleased with it's eligible dividends and steady growth, eventhough it can be quite volatile at times.

Q: PBH is a consistent top recommendation from the balanced portfolio. But are there risks from Amazon as they are also getting into the food business?
Most of the other food manufacturers and retailers have been negatively affected by the Amazon threat, but PBH so far has not. Could this change?

Q: Hello- apparently Clearwater has lost their monopoly on the Arctic clam business, after investing 140 million in processing capability (National Post). What effect will this have on their profits? I was thinking of a purchase but the company is already somewhat expensive.
Thanks for your opinion.

Q: Hi I have held this stock for about three years so am up about 20%. I understand this type of company is often valued based on net asset valu or book value. . If that is the case it is very undervalued. Is this the case of a great company but just an ok stock? Should I continue to own(sector allocation is not an issue).and if not anything else in the sector you prefer?. Thank you. Bill

Q: Why is Encana, a gas producer, rising so fast; while the price of Gas (UNG) is struck at the bottom. Does Encana has any other valuable asset.

CPF (Cdn Forest Product) is rising as a consequence of hurricanes, forecasting demand for lumber. Which is better Cdn stock or ETF.

Q: Jim Rogers is calling for the worst bear market ever. In a recent interview, he said the following:

“When we have the bear market, a lot of people are going to find that, ‘Oh my God, I own an ETF, and they collapsed. It went down more than anything else.’ And the reason it will go down more than anything else is because that’s what everybody owns…”

“… If somebody can just take the time to focus on the stocks that are not in the ETFs, there must be fabulous opportunities in those stocks because they’re ignored… Some of them have got to be doing very, very well. And nobody’s buying them, because only the ETFs buy stocks.”

I’m curious to know what you think of these comments. Is he right that ETFs are bound to fall much more than stocks? Are some more at risk of a plunge than others? Also, if “ignored stocks” are better investments than the ones in ETFs, can you name a few examples? Thanks.
