Q: I currently have a small loss on a small position in Elevance Health. Very poor momentum in the stock currently. I am considering a switch to UNH, but note that it trades at 2x the PE of ELV. What are your thoughts on adding to to ELV at these levels? Or adding at lower levels once it levels off? Would you make a switch to UNH, or abandon this particularly area of the healthcare space for another area such as devices or biotech?

Q: May I have your latest thoughts on SYM? Has its momentum improved? Are they still reducing their debt, generating positive cash flow and increasing their top line revenue? Are insiders increasing their positions? Still an “show me” story? Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.

Jim

Q: I own PRL shares and am happy with their performance. The shares have risen rapidly over the past year and I wonder if shares, either a partial or full position, should be sold. I have seen some data that shows very rapid growth in EPS over the next couple of years .Can you provide key metrics over the next two years that would support your position on this company. Also over this period what would be a reasonable multiple of earnings for the shares? If possible could you factor in its recent acquisition. Thanks.

Q: In regards to TD - the issue of accountablity arises. The AML lapses were well known inside the company - judging by the "LOL" internal emails. The CEO has profusely apologized - has he received any kind of consequences? Just generally at what point do the board of directors ever suffer consequnces for these type events - can you cite any examples? Just frustrating that branch managers or tellers might be held to account but not highly paid upper management for their lack of supervision.
Regards
