Q: I have a fairly well diversified portfolio however I could use some more healthcare sector exposure. I have been looking at Cipher, Knight, Concordia and Merus to initiate a small position in my TFSA. I am interested in mainly growth and have expect to hold it 3-5 years at this point in time. From your past responses, I'm guessing you like Concordia the best but it seems fairly expensive to me. Which one would you prefer or is there another I should consider.
Like everyone else, I really appreciate the service you provide.

Q: Hi Peter & 5i Team,

In your answer to Paul on Oct 28 regarding energy stocks, you wrote
"... we think you could silo them into (light,heavy,tar), (Nat Gas), (service/drillers)... We think you could cover all of the areas with 6 names ".

Could you please recommend your favourite 6 energy sector names for a GROWTH investor for the above 3 silos.

Thanks in advance

Q: In the materials sector I currently hold Goldcorp (G), Yamana (YRI), and Silver Wheaton (SLW). I am considerably down on all three as they are all hitting new lows today. Yamana has been getting hit particularly hard lately and is off more than 65% from where I bought it. My weighting in the sector which initially began as a comfortable 7% has been reduced to about 4%. I know you recommend that everyone hold a little gold in their portfolio as insurance, and you seem to be positive on these three names, but this insurance has turned out to be very costly. Can you comment on today’s results from Goldcorp and Yamana and how you view these companies going forward. I realize that the whole sector is down but some of their problems seem to be company specific. Would you recommend taking advantage of recent weakness in any of these names to bring my weighting back up?

Q: Any idea why “D” is trading so much lower than the others (F, H & J)?
It’s the shortest duration and lowest reset, but of course a huge YTC.

Thanks
