My portfolio lacks anything in the 'Healthcare' Sector..Facilities or otherwise. I have been watching DR-T (Medical Facilities Corp), CLC-T (CML HealthCare Inc)and ACC-T (Amica Mature Lifestyles Inc)and LW-T (Leisureworld Senior Care Corp).

Q: AAPL is 2.5% of my diverse portfolio, I am down 31% with Apple . I also own IWO, IBB, TAL,YUM, XLP, SPY and EFA in US$. All of my US is doing really well. My Canadian $ portfolio is diverse with 1/2 being your A/B+rated and the 5i portfolio, which I'm working towards.15+ years before I need income flow. Do you recommend selling 1/2 or all of my apple and buying Magna, increase my $US holdings or anything else?

Q: Peter,

Curious for your thoughts on RIM as a small speculative / 'gamble' buy at these current levels? Nothing wild, just a 2-3% holding for 1-2 years as they figure themselves out... my train of thought is that this company will either: 1. miraculously make it, 2. Become a best in class software company, or 3. Breaks it apart and sells everything. Any scenario should equate to more than $10.66 / share for investors, no? These markets seem to overreact on everything these days, and I’m thinking the same may have occurred here, or do you think there will be a better entry point in the next 90 days? Thanks!

Ray

Q: Hello 5i,
Do you have any thoughts on Intermap? IMP.T
Are they turning the corner...or is it just too soon to tell? The share price has firmed up nicely this year - but I'm wondering if it's just from money exiting the resource sector...
Thanks!
