Q: I was wondering if you could add anything to my understanding of this company whose share price has stagnated over the past year. The takeover of Jarden was well received by analysts and the quarterly results afterward seemed to suggest things were progressing well. A number of analysts recommend the stock so is it just range bound at this time for no particular reason or is there something else at play?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Over the years I have tried to compare myself to indices to determine if my portfolio performance compares favourably. Basically if it does not I always consider 'firing' myself. Your service has allowed me to increase my overall performance I believe and stay 'employed'. Came across a service (from article in National Post) regarding a free service called ARC Private Client Indices. It would appear to provide a real nice comparison indices based on my portfolio makeup. Are you aware of this and do you have any comments on it?

Q: Hello 5i team,
I have only one entry for healthcare (GUD) and was wondering if it is a good idea to add another security seeing as this sector is beaten down? If so do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Andrew

Q: Given the drop in ENGH on the Amazon news, I want to make sure I understand the relationship SHOP has to Amazon. I believe that SHOP provides software to businesses that utilize Amazon but that Amazon does not license, own or necessarily encourage people to use SHOP software. Is that correct? If so, would the risk to SHOP in this "relationship" be if Amazon decided to develop its own software (unlikely, I think) or if Amazon formally named another software partner that businesses would be better of using to deal with them?

Thanks.

Q: I heard the AMZN announced that they are getting into the same space as ENGH and suspect this is a large reason for the drop today. Can you please let me know if this changes your thoughts on ENGH going forward? Perhaps time to sell after a good run and look for better opportunities elsewhere?
Thanks for the help

Q: The sell of on Tue. Mar. 28 seems to be rather extreme, A fellow investor pointed out "looking at the ENB chart (US chart) it looks ugly to me like its ready to take a dive (head and shoulders formation) ; the way I'm seeing it is if ENB looks bearish then ENF is probably going to take a dive as well which brings me back to the same question, why did ENF sell off so bad. The chart is here: https://tvc-invdn-com.akamaized.net/data/tvc_4a2816752f087df5dc33999672d10282.png
Would you please provide your comments and analysis.
