Q: Hi folks,
I took a small position in Prometic Life Sciences when it was at $2.70. It's gone up quite a bit since then and I've been waiting for an opportunity to buy more. Considering doing that this week but am now looking at Concordia given the big drop today (I was considering before the possible buyout news but thought I'd missed my opportunity). Any information on the 9% drop today in CXR? Thoughts on taking a half position in each this week? I have no other pharma/medical positions so my exposure to the sector is limited and the positions would be relatively small. Thanks.

Q: Hi guys, in a previous answer today you stated that gud is worth a 5% holding within a portfolio, what about pli? I have them both equal inside my portfolio (balance), should I lighten up on pli and drop down to a 3% and bump up gud to 7% ?
Thanks
Jim

Q: Hi team, I love the new site. The ability to save to watchlist is fantastic! In my RRSP, I hold GUD, IT, PLI, WCP, SPE (.5 position) and SGY. These are part of a multi-account balanced portfolio, so my question is not so much to do with sector, but with SGY and PLI. I am down 50% on SGY and wondering if these funds are better deployed elsewhere. I am up 100% on PLI and can sell half for another position. My RRSP is a very long-term hold account. I keep an eye on things, but don't usually make any moves except to trim gains. As you can see from my list, I can handle some risk if I was to replace SGY and sell half of PLI. Am I better off to continue to stomach the 50% loss on SGY or move into something else with better growth potential? If so, what would you suggest for 2 long term growth positions? I have been watching OTC, BCE, SPB (I bought CUS on your suggestion), FSZ.
