Q: I have dabbled in a few mid to small cap Canadian bio companies over the years. I never have the stomach to hold on for the long term in general due to high volatility but I like the sector. I'm currently sitting on Sernova (SVA) for now at least. How Do you like them? Do you have any other recommendations in this sector?

Q: I'm hearing that pharma and biotech company valuations are at multi year lows. With one chart showing the percentage of US biotechs with market caps below cash value is at a 25 year high, and by a wide margin. Do you feel this sector shows a big opportunity to get good companies for cheap in a sector that will one day improve? If so what companies look best to you in Canada or US? Are there any sectors that are more beaten up? Thx
Q: Is Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated a good buy at this time to add to a portfolio to start a small position? What do you think of the financial ratios for this stock, their industry that they serve, their customer base and insider ownership? Buy, hold or sell? Thanks
Q: Thoughts, comments, concerns, recommendations. I am concerned they only have 1 solid drug with relatively narrow application, all beit, important but sitting on considerable cash. Not sure what else may be in the trials pipeline.

Q: Hello your thought on Vertex
- Intuitive Surgical Inc. (ISRG)
- Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (VRTX)
- Savaria Corporation (SIS)
- Exact Sciences Corporation (EXAS)
Q: Hi there,
I have a fairly heavy weighting of SIS that is about break even. I'm tiring of waiting for it and wonder what your advice would be on selling SIS to establish 3 equal weighted positions in VRTX, EXAS and ISRG? My thinking is I like the medical exposure and they are nicely diversified. Do you like this move and would you choose these 3 companies or suggest an alternative?
Thanks

Q: What is your opinion on VRTX?
Q: Good day team,
Two years ago you weren't too positive about VRTX. What do you think of it now? Would you be a buyer based on its momentum and valuation?
