Q: In the FP dated Sep 25,a Joe Chidley wrote about the Black Ducks i.e.Fear trades in reaction to mini-events.2 good examples this week.1)H Clinton's pledge to control drug price gouging.This resulted in the Nasdaq biotech index drop of 7%,& VRX declined more than 10% on Tuesday.2)Volkswagen's cheating on emissions control tests,& the impact was Ford & Gm decline of 2.8% & 2% respectively on tuesday. Neither events change the fundamentals in the subject 2 sectors.The arrival of a black duck can herald opportunity. You are correct in your prediction that the recovery from the Aug 24 decline will be a W,& not a V.Note that on Sep 28,the S&P 500 successfully retested the Aug 24 low.On Oct 2 a retest again, & the biggest reversal to the upside in 4 months on volume which is higher than the average volume for the previous 20 sessions. Please advise the situation now;It is on a uptrend now?Is it time to take advantage of egregious pricing?Please provide some names. As always apperciate Your usual great services & opinions.Looking forward to seeing You on BNN on Oct 13

Q: I know that in the context of the broader market being horrendous that many equities are down. But pur has been putting in new lows and insider selling is very high. My instinct is to take a loss and move on yet you still hold this in your growth portfolio. How has your confidence level on this one changed in the last month?

Q: I follow the balanced equity portfolio. I would like to understand when you make the changes indicated for the month's theoretical portfolio, and when that information is available on the Website.

For example, the July portfolio indicates the following changes: "July 2 shares of CSU and bought 30 shares of BIN, sold FM". When where they done in July, and when is the information available to 5i members?

Thanks,
IF

Q: This has been very lonely stand up stock in my portfolio. Rather unusual for it to be as it trades thinly at points. Now I can see a reason for it in it's recent purchase of Healthmark. I can't recall when the last time was that it bought something. Do you think this might represent a change in corporate thinking? What does the purchase mean to your thinking on RPI and how significant do you think it is for the company?
I am looking to sell some shares. Hopefully at higher prices?
