Q: New member. On your model portfolio I have decided to buy & hold
as long as the stock remains on your list. However because my capital is tied up in other stocks I could buy only the 9 rated
A or A-. Am I talking a risk by not diversifying to all 20?

Q: I know you have answered a lot of questions recently about Avigilon (AVO), but I feel compelled to ask one more anyway. The price continues to drop every day with no relief. In the absence of any news form either the company or any other source, is there some price point or percentage drop at which you might simply consider it wise to cut the loss and get out? There doesn’t seem to be any buyers stepping in and at some point shouldn’t an investor give some credence to the combined wisdom of the market? I find it worrisome that in the face of the market reaction the company has not put out any type of clarification or press release that might calm investors.

Q: Hello Peter and team.
Would it be possible in each questions regarding a specific stock, to also post the price at the time of your comments? In this way when looking back over a number of posts for that particular stock, a quick history of the price would show and save some "lookup" time. Hope you feel this would be a positive addition to the site. I think many would find this small change a benefit. I know I would. Cheers.

Q: I took a fairly large position in avigilon 19.20, i have read all your comments, but the stock is acting like maybe the whole company is a scam and a sham.i know their earnings were good, the stock is down by half since its high, so why does this capitulation keep going on, it cannot be because the cfo resigned because of health reasons,avigilon is acting like a u.s. Stock that sometimes gets hammered way beyond what it deserves. Your comments. Dave

Q: AVO - bottom line

Obviously, everyone is out considerable (% wise) with the recent "decent after news" scenario.

If you were in our/my shoes Peter, and you down 35%, would you sell and be done with it, sit tight and take the long term view (what I want to do) or buy more at these relatively discounted prices?

Thanks for all you do Peter and Family

Q: SUM question: Very happy to see Solium Capital on a big rise the last two days but no news to support it. Any idea why this is happening? Thanks.

Q: Re: TCN.TO
I'm surprised that nobody asked about TCN.TO quarterly results. I thought it is a popular one but it seems like I am wrong. What's your take anyway.
By the way, I think it maybe a better idea to give a rough evaluation on popular companies in 5i coverage when anything significant happens, so that you may save some time spent reading repetitive questions.
Thank you!

Q: How do you view the chances of a competitor (or another company wanting AVO's technology) acquiring Avigilon? I believe in the past you said this was probably the end result for Avigilon.

It seems to have a unique technology offering and after a nearly 50% decline in the share price it would seem like an opportune time.

Thanks.

Q: Avigilon -- The Next Generation -- I apologize in advance for this question, and I'll reprimand myself at great length later -- but I am very interested in the support pricing on AVO. I had recently requested your "great Canadian pick" for my grandson's legacy, and you had suggested this stock. Not that I don't agree with you, but at the same time I was wondering whether I should be buying now, or wait a bit longer. My TD Technicals show that AVO has an intermediate support level of $11.25 and a longer term support of $17.09. Ouch. I mean, really "ouch" (since I own the stock in my own registered portfolio and am hanging on with fingernails after 30% loss.) In any case, since I'm in for the longer term, would you advise waiting a bit -- ie. do the technicals look to you like they may actually bottom out around the $12 level. I realize you don't dabble too much in technicals, and I respect that, but still you must have come across this type of selling before, in your profession, and was wondering what your gut tells you on this one. Sorry again, for two questions in two days, but I promise I'll hide for a while after this! Thanks, as always.
