Q: This one seems to me to fit the bill of investment in a good sector, investing in the U.S (supposedly a good place for the foreseeable future) and also taking advantage of US $ rising/ Cdn $ sinking. My finger is poised over the 'buy' button waiting for your advice. Thx, Art

Q: Hello 5i team,
Health/Pharma represents 10.5% of my RRIF portfolio; it comprises Concordia, Valeant and Cipher as core holdings and partial holdings (like an ETF) of CRH,GUD,PHM and RX.
I'm thinking of adding NHC to the latter; which of the last five would be your least favourite and why?
Thanks, as always
Antoine

Q: Good morning.
I've currently got 3% of my portfolio in Healthcare (AMGN and PHM split roughly 70/30) and would like to add to bring it up closer to 5%.
Currently thinking of adding more PHM or picking up some GUD but would appreciate your thoughts. This would be in my TFSA, so am comfortable with more risky assets. Maybe you think something different entirely?
Cam.

Q: How long before we know if this will play out? Given Goodman's endorsement of PRN and PDP, which of the two would you go with?
Q: Thanks - You guys are doing a great job on fundamental
Do you have Q/A on TECHNICAL Analysis too or are you planning to start one.
What are your thoughts on PLI. It is going down and it right at 200 days. Should I continue to hold

Q: Hello Peter,
I still hold shares of PHM, and would like to add to the position; however, I am concerned that CEO, M. Dalsin is spreading his ideas across 3 companies: Patient home, convalo health, and Inspira (which supposedly will trade end of June) and is not focused one company. I am concerned that he will not be as focused on patient home, but also see the reasons for the other two: perhaps cross sells, etc Any comments please. I have not seen much news on why CRH medical continues to move upwards. Is there any news that you are aware of? Also, other than having a nasdaq listing, is there a reason for Concordia Healthcare's price movement? Many thanks for your advice.

Q: A small clarification. Helen asked a question about PHM earlier today, that included "[PHM] will be moving to TSX and will now be a closed end fund." You commented on the move to the TSX but didn't clarify that the closed end fund referred to is MDS, to be run by Michael Decter, and it will have no effect on PHM proper. I believe that Michael Dalsin and Roger Greene, of PHM, will have an advisory relationship with MDS, but there is no direct implication for current PHM shareholders as they are separate entities.
Q: Now that Concordia Healthcare will commence trading on the Nasdaq, would you recommend buying it on the Nasdaq or the TSX? Thanks.
Q: Article in Globe today re above, they will be moving to TSX. How will that affect the current shareholders, if at all.
Many thanks
Many thanks
Q: With memories of Northern Telecom being such a significant portion of TSX just before the start of its demise, I get nervous when I see Valeant becoming so large.
I remind myself that it is also traded in US, and that there are many larger cap drug companies.
I would value your comments.

Q: What do you think of Prism Medical (PM)? Seems to trade at a decent valuation with pretty good growth for next year. Any thoughts on their management and how stable their particular sector is regarding government regulation? Lastly, are their any particular red flags with this company I'm missing?
Thank you.
John
Thank you.

Q: Hello Peter, overall what is your opinion of this stock as a long term hold (5years)? Has there been any news today to cause the stock to decline 6%? Thank you, Jen
Q: Are there any plans to initiate coverage on Concordia? In the meantime thoughts on adding as larger cap more stable compliment to PHM assuming it is the only other healthcare stock in a portfolio? Unless you think one of the two smaller health care stocks covered, pli and gud would be appropriate? Cheers
Q: Here's a snip from a proposal for the July AGM
"We are seeking to increase the number of common shares that may be issued under the current stock option plan (the
“2010 Stock Option Plan”) from 26,193,643 shares to 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common
shares as at the date of shareholder approval of the amended 2010 Stock Option Plan (56,407,097 based on the
number of issued and outstanding common shares as at the date hereof)"
Does that seem unusually high? Is it time to exit this?
