Q: AutoCanada (ACQ) has not done much recently. Is there a problem, or is it just a matter of being patient ? Sold some Amaya (AYA) recently to buy ACQ. Since then, AYA goes up, and ACQ down.

Q: I own NBD-T and BRP-N and am down 12% and 22% respectively. On the plus side they are each only about a 1% weighting in my portfolio. They continue to trend down and yet the housing data in the US (which I assume is driving them) doesn't seem to be that bad and in fact improving albeit at a slow pace. What would make them go up and should I continue to hold or get out and get something else? I have nothing else in the real estate sector. Great service.

Q: There are two pieces of advice that perplex me about investing and I'm not sure which ones to follow:
1. "you need to take profits" vs "you need to let your winners run"
2. "You should be raising cash to take advantage of an inevitable correction" vs "You can't time the market so you should stay fully invested at all times"
I suppose point 1 and 2 are almost the same thing...
All of these strategies make sense to me, but a choice has to be made right? In your experience which ones have you found more successful in the long run?
Thanks so much for all your help.
cheers

Q: This is by way of me trying to figure out why the market will suddenly shoot up or plunge down. I guess I can't help always seeking a reason. The reason given for today's big drop in the TSX and the DOW is tension in Iraq (or so I read on Bloomberg). This confuses me. The worst hit sectors were materials (Gold) and energy. Why would people fearing turmoil in the middle east sell off energy stocks in Canada? Would they not benefit? And isn't gold supposed to rise during times of tension? Or is Bloomberg simply seeking a reason for the fall and plucking that one of out of the air?
