Q: I have the above stocks all at significant $$ losses in my trading account. I don't need to sell any, but am wondering if I should sell and switch to other similar stocks to lock in capital losses. Do you have an opinion on which you'd sell tomorrow - and a proxy for an equivalent or better replacement. And which ones you would keep due to their unique positioning in the current market? I don't really want to sell and wait 30 days to rebuy the same stock.

Q: I've done quite nicely on NVO over the last while and have sold off about a third of my original position at prices close to double the current level. With a few US dollars in my account I am wondering if I should buy back some NVO or look at a part position in ISRG (or another healthcare suggestion from 5i) for diversification.

Thanks for all your advice! Though I ask few questions, I learn "bigly" from those of other subscribers.

Q: With the steep sell-off recently and stock markets coming to terms with a global trade war, which five Canadian and/or US small to mid-cap growth stocks across any sector look most interesting at this point? Looking at starting partial positions as I do not think the bottom is here yet. Thank you

Q: I am, as you put it, sharpening my pencil. Can you comment a bit on the above three companies. How much overlap is there? Which is the one you would rank the lowest of the three? Leaving aside stable mega caps, for the agressive side of my tech holding, are there any others that you would rank in the top 5 to start looking at that are better or roughly in the same class as these? Thank-you.

Q: During his appearance on BBN in November Peter's top picks were CLBT, ROAD, and FOUR.

These are all down substantially since the show.

Did Peter hold those 3 in his actively managed fund when appearing on BNN? Does he still have any or some of them in his fund today?

Thanks

Q: Recognizing that you don't necessarily follow NVO, do you still consider this a better long term investment compared to PFE with it's attractive dividend? I know that the company's recent trials have not been great, but do they have a better pipeline than PFE?

NVO's revenue and free cash flow seemed to have consistently grown looking in the past, and it appears to be at an historically attractive valuation. But now maybe the most important question going forward is has NVO lost it's "moat" ?

Q: I own these three companies currently, and am having a challenge, keeping my mind about me given their waterfall declines. Given what’s happening in the world today would you continue to hold the stocks or would you just cut your losses and try and live another day?
Especially after Dan Ives claimed the tariffs will be a Armageddon for technology companies

What are your thoughts?
