Q: Amaya went to 37$ recently, and seems rather volatile. In a TFSA, would you advise 'timing' the market ? Now it is at 32.70$, 11% less. It seems to make sense to do some market timing for 10% or over with no tax consequence. Same principle for a RRSP. Do you agree ? If not, exactly why ? It seems to work with volatile stocks (with no tax consequence).
One might argue that AYA being quite volatile, it might jump much higher in no time, and timing the market is always a risky game. Would you use this argument (and again I would stress that this seems useful only when there is no tax consequence) ?

Q: Hi Peter,
AVO took a beating when the CFO suddenly left immediately before earnings were released in May for "health reasons". It is now four months later and the company has yet to announce the hiring of a permanent replacement. Smells a bit fishy to me. Is this long delay a further cause for concern for AVO shareholders? How long should it take to hire a qualified and suitable CFO???
Thanks for the reply.

Q: RE ACQ - you still have this stock rated a "B" which suggested to me it was a buy and as long as your rating has not changed, it still should be. I am down 25% since my purchase of ACQ while the market is down far less in percentage terms. Has anything changed in your ACQ analysis that we should have known about? Thank you
Q: I haveno health care exposure and was thinking of adding Pfizer and Gilead Science to the US side of my portfolio.what are your thoughts on this? Also I bought BAD, ACQ and LNR when they were very high recently and am down about 30 percent in them. Would this be an opportunity to double down or do I just wait them out? It was bad timing on my part and am wondering if there is a way I can fix my mistake.
Q: My TFSA makes up a tiny portion of my overall portfolio and I have maxed my contributions to date. I have to sell about 1/2 of the portfolio within the next few weeks to pay for a wedding (life can get in the way of long term investing!).
However, I am stuck on what to sell. I hold AVO, AYA, BDI, CGI. DHX, CF, ESL, STN in a fairly balanced portfolio. I am trying to determine a strategy of what is best to sell. I am comfortable with all of them, long term. Do I sell 50% of each (even the couple I am down on), are there some that you expect to grow a lot sooner than the others (it will take a couple of years to probably replace the withdrawals), is CF anticipated to declare a special dividend, etc?
Any assistance as to how to orient my thinking would be appreciated.
As a caution to others, I should add that I did trim a bit earlier but I became complacent with the high valuations and didn't prepare for this September drop in the markets.
Appreciate your assistance and I hope you are transitioning well from all your riding. I did the Ride to Conquer Cancer and it took me a few days to slow myself down!

Q: Regarding CGX
Someone on BNN commented yesterday that Cineplex was cheap right now...from a P/E or P/CF it does not look overly cheap to me. Would you say it is inexpensive or fairly valued and by what metrics?
