Q: In reply to an earlier question, it was stated that earnings missed badly. Please clarify. Expected earnings was $0.86 versus actuals of $0.89 (both expected and actuals were adjusted, e.g. for the Shire break fee, etc., which is reasonable). Also, given the share price drop, would you now rate it a buy? Thanks.
Q: I have held this stock for many years and it has performed very well. The company has recently indicated that 2015 revenues and earnings will be lower due to the strong US$. What is your opinion of this stock - would you advise selling now, and if so what healthcare companies do you recommend?
Thanks
Geoff

Q: I just sold IBM and GE, Otherwise little US exposure. Also, I also have limited exposure to Canadian oil about 4%. One consideration for US is Vanguard US dividend Appreciation (hedged). They do have a non hedged. Since I only have 4% oil exposure maybe BTE or something else. BNS or TD is another thought since banks are down. Your thoughts would greatly appreciated.
BTW great job.

Q: It took a big fall after the quarterly report this week. I see BMO downgraded the stock around concerns of increased competition. Looks like an interesting valuation with nice dividend yield at current price. My concern is that it's very dependent on one or two drugs so I'm a bit nervous in buying. Thoughts? Thanks

Q: Have you heard of Ardmore Shipping. They claim that oil volatility is great for their business. Oil traders are supposedly storing oil in ocean tankers in hopes of selling it at a higher price later. This is putting pressure on availability of tankers and thus prices are going up. Would you consider this stock a buy?
Q: Hello Folks:
We have owned CSX for a number of years and satisfied with it's performance, however indications are their star is dimming somewhat. Would you consider a trade into Union Pacific (UNP) worthwhile, or should one just sit tight?
Thanks again for your wonderful service!
