Q: I know that you are removing from the Growth Portfolio today but what should an investor with real money on the line do that's down 70%. This was a 7% position in my portfolio. Should I just eat the loss and move on or hold for 5 years to see if I get my money back (or at least some of it)? I don't need access to the capital for at least another 15 years.

Q: Hello Peter and Co.
On your guidance I have unloaded CXR. I hold MG and DH, 2 stocks that have had bad years but I still feel are solid companies. I am thinking of adding to these as their valuations seem pretty good right now and I have done well in the past adding to good companies when they're down a bit. What do you think? cheers

Q: Peter and Team,

The market seems to really like Badger Daylighting's Q2. It looks good to me all in all and it seems they are turning in the right direction and performing better but I have to say I don't really see anything there to justify the massive jump I the stock. I would have expected a 4 - 5% move rather than almost 17%. Any thoughts on the earnings?

Marc

Q: Although, I'm generally not a 'trader', I saw this morning that BAD took a leap up, leaving quite a gap, so after holding it for 3 years I sold, with 150% profit, thinking I can probably buy it on a pullback. Would you agree that it is still a good company to have and if so, if you also think there might be a (technical/sector) pullback, what price would you look at to get back into?

Q: For those of us who bought CXR above 60$/share, selling here won't recover much cash and so I wonder, is there a point selling? What if like WIN or PHM, we sell near the bottom? The guidance is reduced, but some of this was out of their control (currency due to Brexit). If there was a fraud, yes, I agree, but EPS is 3.2% down and revenue revised by 18%. Not good, but they aren't the only ones with troubles (Brystol-Meyers and Gildan). At least they are doing something about it: laying off the CFO and cutting the (small) dividend.

Q: Pure Multi Family REIT declared Q2 results which looked pretty good. Also disposed off a property and bought an AA property (as per announcement yesterday). They are doing all the right things. They have lagged Milestone Apartments REIT which has taken off in the last month or two.

What is your opinion on Pure Family REIT ? You had mentioned it was expensive some time back compared to MST.UN. Does this opinion still stand ?

and out of the three companies which would you prefer for income and some growth. Thank You.

Q: Part of the due diligence I do when looking at a company is to look at their web sites. Simple I know, but it can give important clues, i.e. is it there just to promote the stock?, who are their customers, what are their actual products?

When I looked at BOS, their product line seems very small, and doesn't seem to offer anything unique or proprietary. Am I missing something with this company?

Q: SECTOR question regarding DH Corp.

I noticed that you listed DH Corp under the sector (Industrial) in your most recent list of covered stocks.

I own the stock was always was under the impression it was a Technology sector stock.

When I think industrial I think GE etc.

Is this an misprint or should I now think of DH as a INDUSTRIAL sector company when I allocate my portfolio?

Thank you very much.
