Q: Understanding Mr. Market .... I have never been a believer in " The market has priced in " or " The market looks ahead " ..... I am a firm believer in " The market is herded by the loudest barking dog " ..... And there are some things I expect the barking dog to do..... War threat , bark louder , threaten Fed independence, a nasty bite to the dollar , increase taxes { tariffs } a nasty bite to Mr. Market's leg .... The dog's master goes nuts , the dog goes nuts on Mr. Market ..... Yet none of this is happening ..... When and more importantly why did Geo-politics become irrelevant to Mr Market ? ...... The biggest global crisis since the cold war is now very near reality . The invasion of an ally and the dissolution of NATO . Yet Mr. Market is STILL yawning ? ....... What gives ? ..... Thanks for your terrific service .....

Q: I am looking at starting a position in ENS, and I am at a loss in terms of what investment to sell in order to fund the purchase. I am targeting an initial position of 2.5%-3%, and ideally I would like to sell another investment in the same sector, but there are few candidates in my portfolio which would fit this need. The potential candidates I have listed (WSP, REGN, HL, ATD, CRWD) are all in different sectors, and for all but ATD (small gain at this point) and CRWD (in registered account), would involve recognition of significant capital gains.

I would rather not use margin to initiate such a position, but I could if absolutely needed. I am trying to think outside of the box in terms of starting this investment, but I would prefer to stay disciplined in regards to funding new positions while maintaining diversification. If it helps further, my materials exposure has increaseOnd a fair amount over the last year (as has everyone's), and I have a relatively robust exposure to the technology sector, so if it was prudent for me to trim there, I could probably manage.

I'd appreciate any insights you may be willing to share. Thanks so much, and I look forward to reading your response.

Q: I know the market is having a bad day.

CSU has hit a 52 week low, ATZ and SHOP are down 5-6%.

Yes the latter 2 have been doing very well lately, espectially ATZ but are there any other reasons these 3 are going down so dramatically vs the market , especially CSU.

Thanks

Q: I've been going through my portfolio and reevaluating if some of the stocks should continued to be held or sold; one such is BYD. I've held it for over 5 years, earned some money on the dividends but its still in the red. Do you think BYD should still be held or do you have any recommendations for its replacement?
