Q: What do you make of the latest development re: PLI with the CEO having to issue a press release denying false rumors about his selling of shares. The short sellers seem to really have it in for this company! What would the reasons be for this?

Are we going to be seeing more of this kind of thing in line with the increase in 'false news', particularly in the recent US election?

Would appreciate your comments.

Q: I have a half position in PLI and, with it being down this much as of late, I am considering buying more. Looks like there may be technical support just above $2. Though the consistent downward trend is somewhat worrying. In a situation like this would you suggest waiting to see if the stock turns around a little or just buy with the understanding that the current value looks good to me. I understand the issues with trying to time something just looking for thoughts on this stock in this context. Thanks!

Q: Large-cap healthcare ETFs are giving-up their post-election bump, in some cases (for example, HHL) approaching nine-month lows. Are there any that are becoming interesting, or is this sector just too instrinsically volatile? In the past, 5i has spoken well of IHI (NYSE), do you still like it?

Q: Hello Peter,
Your thoughts on PLI here at this recent swoon. Is this tax loss selling or Pli seasonality.

I have been averaging down positions from 2.80.

The street loves this stock, INK insider report has Company director buying millions in stock on open market at 2.40 Nov 30. I am at a loss with this drop. My Alaris AD has saved my portfolio while I wait for this spec stock to run. Should just get out now before this gets worse. Broke support at 2.26 and bouncing on new ST support at 2.05.
Thank you again Cameron and Cheers from New Delhi IN. It's warm here and no snow

Q: On Nov 28, a member commented on an scare-mongering article from "Frisco Fastball." Bear in mind that no human being was involved in the creation of this article (or, as far as I can tell, any other from this publisher.) Investors may indeed have sold on jitters, and FF may have been part of that dynamic, but most of its blather is transparently kooky. Smear jobs still need human trolls - at least, they do for now.

Q: just a comment on crh, i bought 25000 shares between 6.56 and 7.10 yesterday, i thought the drop was ridiculous since the target was increased from 7.00 to 8.50 by rbc and their return on equity is north of 20 per cent, also i already owned 20,000 shares at prices below 5.00.
furthermore it seems most of the selling was retail investors panicking and selling.
and if it goes lower from here i will buy even more. dave
