Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: AND has had a good run lately and I’m wondering if it’s gotten ahead of itself. It’s one I have been watching for a while and wondering what your thoughts are about the company. The fact that it has a small dividend is also a factor. Who are their closest competitors? Am looking for another health related company, have WELL and GUD. If you think there’s a better company to add to my account please feel free to make any suggestion.

I have followed cloudmd DOC and Perimeter Medical PINK but feel they have shot up and could be in for a correction.
Your thoughts on my dilemma would be greatly appreciated.

As always thanks for your great guidance and suggestions.

Q: I have been considering investing in JNJ but am concerned about its legal issues. These are highlighted in the most recent annual financial statements but are not mentioned in the subsequent quarterly releases other than to say that the company does not give guidance because it cannot predict the outcomes of legal matters. This indicates that they believe the issues are material.
Can you provide your thoughts about the company and the risks that the legal issues present.
Thanks for your advice.

Q: Hi 5i
Do you think the pharma/biotechs sector has risen on (assuming) hopes of vaccine success only for most within the sectors to deflate again when a decisive outcome has played out (does this seem a simplistic view)?
I guess I'm trying to gauge risk factors within these sectors at this time.
Thanks
Mike

Q: Both GH and ILMN are held in diversified US Portfolio, with weightings of 2.36% and 2,22% respectively.

After reading recent Q&A for these two companies, should I own both or just one and if just one, which one?.....thanks....Tom

Q: In a recent missive, David Rosenberg suggests that smallish pharma and biotech companies are the place to look for future growth. As I don't have enough cash on hand to buy a bunch of stocks, can you please suggest a fund or two that would be a good way to play the pharma/biotech sector. Though your focus is mainly Canada, I suspect that the US would be the place to play this sector. Do you agree?

Thanks in advance!

Q: Could you please comment on their recent financing. One of their Intended use of financing funds seemed to be to repurchase their own shares? Selling shares to buy their own shares doesn’t seem to make sense unless they had plan to Drive the share Price down.
Do you think they are planning a big buy Or a series of acquisitions like their Sister company Phm.
What is your going forward perspective on vmd. They seem to be in an ideal market area (ventilators) and able or pull in funds very cheaply and their shares seem to have consolidated. Thank you for the great unbiased advice you provide us diy investors.
