Q: I currently have no exposure to the health care sector in my portfolio. I'm looking for companies that pay a bit of a dividend which is sustainable and have the ability to provide some steady capital appreciation. I realize that American stocks are not your expertise, but keeping my criteria in mind and watching what's going on with Canadian health care, I would appreciate your opinion on three American companies. Gilead, JNJ, and Walgreens.
Looking to the future, which of these companies has the best prospects? (keeping capital gain and dividend growth in mind)
Which 2 Canadian companies who you add to diversify my health care holdings?
Thanks for your guidance.

Q: Ok, I'm one of those "dummies" who decided on, Aug 5/15, was a great time to take advantage of the drop and purchase a chunk of HLF at $20 (and in a RSP account!) Things aren't turning out what I wished for, with HLF closing today at $11.38 more than a 40% drop, and especially for such a short time. I have about 8 years until retirement, and am in 500 shares. Should I lighten, or hold and hope for the best (which often doesn't work out --- especially with WIN!!!)
Thanks!

Q: Good Morning Team,

I'm thinking of switching some money out of my current financial holdings into FSZ but am not sure if it's a good idea. What I mean is that, while the yield is much better with FSZ, its PE is more or less on a par with the big banks. At present, I have HCG 4.4%, TD 3.3% & RY 1.9%.
I would appreciate your thoughts.
As always, thank you very much.

Q: I bought half a position today @ $1.84 for the following reason. They have a lot of cash, patents, experience and are divesting what experience tells them to drop. If WIN were a private company with an IPO today, I suspect it would trade north of $5.00. What do you think? (before I buy the other half!) Thanks for the ongoing support.

Q: Sorry another question on wilan. Skippen says that the dividend will be cut but does not exclude possibility of special dividends.
Would his strategy be to drive the share price down so the company can buy more shares at a cheap price and then collect a special dividend on more shares they would own. Is that a strategy that companies have used in the past? Is it a possibility they would do that or even ethical?

Q: Hi 5i My local lumber yard suggested I put my lumber order in as soon as possible as they are expecting an increase in pricing. They have been told from a supplier that demand from the U.S. is increasing and price increases will follow. My question is ADN has been going down the last few weeks but ADN has just increased its dividend, as boots on the ground would you take this as an opportunity to buy into ADN. Thx Gerry

Q: Thoughts on their earnings released just this hour. Missed on earnings and stock already hammered.

Any red flags regarding the sustainability of the company? Even if you lop off 20% of estimated 2015 earnings the stock is trading at 11x. How cheap have you seen these type of businesses get?

Thanks.

Thanks.
