Q: when i started investing 40 years ago i remember watching a young mario gabelli who was everywhere saying NEVER FIGHT THE TAPE.
i bring this up in relation to the marijuana stocks, when all this started i agreed with you, but about 3 months ago i stopped fighting the tape and joined the party and i have made a huge killing but also my year, i am mostly out now, so my question is you constantly talk about momentum, new highs etc etc but you never participated, imagine what mj could have done to your portfolios, why. dave

Q: I know U.S. markets are not your focus but any help would be great. I am looking for some suggestions on growth holdings in a TFSA USD for a long term hold 5-10 years. Currently in the account V, FB, BRK.B I am not a fan of dividend paying US holdings in the account due to the 15% robbery from the US government in non registered accounts. I am looking for something with stability and top in their industry. I have thought about CRM or SQ but other suggestion would be great. Thanks again for the great service

Q: What are your thoughts about IBI Group Inc. I've been following it (somewhat) for the past few years. It had a good run up until the start of this year and now has been doing poorly. I'm not sure what changed this year.
1) What are your thoughts on why the stock has lost so much value since the start of the year; and
2) Do you think the stock is currently at a good entry point?

Q: Hi guys - I have owned BNP/OBE/CET for a few years now and as you know, it has been very painful. I am almost at capitulation on these three stocks, waiting for a turnaround that never seems to come. Am I better off selling these names and buying some of your ideas that have momentum or hanging on to these "dogs" and waiting for the turnaround?

Thanks - David
