Q: CODI has been described as a mini-Berkshire Hathaway buying smaller companies, recently selling Camelbak and adding Manitoba Harvest to their portfolio. Being an old fart a hemp based food business strikes me as somewhat fad oriented but a lot of people have made a lot of money off of fads. Trading at a low P/E and a having a yield around 8.7%, what are your thoughts on this company ?

Q: Just off the conference call and I have to say, this one is a real head scratcher. Everyone begins by congratulating the team on a great quarter and the stock does a serious nose-dive. I couldn't see anything but positives in either the numbers or the answers. Am I missing something? Or is this just sell the news. Thank-you.

Q: RCPT (RECEPTOS) has an offer to purchase from Celgene (via Strix .. a subsidiary of Celgene).
RCPT is trading at $231.46 and the offer from Celgene is for $232.00 net to the holder in cash without interest (the offer price) and subject to any withholding taxes required by applicable law.
1 .. Is the offer a good one as some think it's very low?
2 .. How do I find out about the withholding taxes (as I understand sometimes there's a dividend that can take a big bite from profits)?
3 .. Would I do better just to hold the RCPT stock and sell it myself?

Q: Hello Team,
the stock has been in significant downfall, from $19 to$5, yet the financial statements appear acceptable. P/E ratio now stands at 5. I have a position in the stock and wonder whether manipulative action influences the trend(short sellers). Seeking Alpha had a scathing report on the company. What is your opinion? Hold or sell?
Your input is valuable!

Q: Hi Peter & Ryan, I'm looking for some suggestions on a solid pick to add in the healthcare sector. I currently hold PHM, GUD & PLI... Something paying a dividend would be great. Also I don't mind if it's a Canadian or US company. I was thinking of Johnson & Johnson, but would love to hear your thoughts. Many thanks. Mario

Q: Arch has recently had some high percentage price volatility gyrations.While it has, understandably, dropped considerably over the last few years in the face of the supply growth of natural gas, drop in price of oil, etc. do you feel this price volatility could be indicative of underlying fundamentally-derived "bottoming"?

Q: Hi Team

I have a full position in Apple and am thinking of selling half and purchasing, with the proceeds, Cisco for purposes of diversification. Apple does seem to be sputtering a bit of late.

Q: Good day:
I realise that your focus is not the US market, but I would appreciate any thoughts upon Cummins. I am thinking of initiating a position as it may represent good value for the longer term although the sector is out of favour.
Thank you.
