Q: Good morning . Thinking of doing some tax loss selling these are the stocks I am under water on . Are these all good for that or should I just sell some of them. I have a well diversified portfolio and none are a very large position

Q: Seasons Greetings 5i!!
I've done well on Firan Tech. over the last couple of years but it has stalled in 2017. I'm considering selling it and buying either TSGI or AVO for more growth. I'm concerned over which sectors I'm moving in or out of. Could I have your thoughts please?
Thanks
Dave

Q: Hi there, both Peter and Ryan selected AVO as a top pick recently on BNN. Would this be a good indicator of a strong bullishness towards the stock? Also, I believe this name is currently not held in any of the portfolios. If it were to be added - would it fit into the growth, balanced or both? Lastly, would you be comfortable with a full position in the name? Thanks for your great service!

Q: Please provide your comments about the recent appointment of James Henderson as COO and possible appointment to CEO next spring.

The stock has done well in the past few months but historically it seems that just as things are looking good bad news breaks. As I am typing this question, the stock has dropped by 5% with today’s news. Is this an over reaction?

I have held AVO for the past two years, in my TFSA and it represents only 2.4% of my total portfolio.

Should I continue to hold this stock?

Thank you

Stephen

Q: These companies were both recently rated as a B, which seems odd. DSG has a long track record of superior earnings growth, consistent growth over many years, predictable earnings, better management, better management credibility, stable executive suite, a deeper executive suite, major barriers to entry, a niche business.... This is not to say that AVO is a bad company, just seems not be of the same quality level as DSG. Does the high DSG valuation supersede all of these other factors? Appreciate your comments.

Q: Peter was on BNN recently and GSY, TV and AVO were his top picks. But what does that mean? How do these picks relate to the model portfolios? If I was to buy new positions today, should I use the top picks as a guide or continue with filling out my holdings with the balanced equity portfolio?
