Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: My initial purchase of PURE constituted only 1.5% of my portfolio. With the recent dip, would it make sense to top this company up to 3%? ... assuming there are still clear skies ahead.

Alternatively, I've been "toying" with the possibility of switching out of Pure and into Spin Master, for a 3% holding. Is Spin Master an overall better growth company?

Your thoughts?

Thanks,
