Q: I’m short on consumer defensive stocks and can’t help but to think that even during challenging financial times ahead, that alcohol sales will continue to do reasonably well. Would you think that SAM has strong potential as a long term hold? Thanks very much.

Q: Geodrill first q results looked good to me. I was also pleased to see that the company announced that insiders exercised 1,170,000 options at an exercise price of CAD$2.14 for proceeds of approximately CAD$2.5M.
I often find when insiders buy on "the sky is falling days" that it is a good indication that the shares are in the bargain bin.
Likewise, there 2 large inside buys of BAM.A on Monday by Flatt and Cockwell-- both very smart guys.

Q: 5iteam: Currently down about 9.5% . Would you consider GSY a decent replacement .If considering I do not currently need the better dividend and .it is looking like a tax loss would help this year , do you feel GSY at today 's price would give me more upside potential or would you suggest a better name to add to portfolio rather than add to GSY to lower my book value?Tks Larry

Q: Ever since I started investing roughly ten years ago, I've always enjoyed trying to identify companies that could become acquisition targets. Could you please name five companies (TSX only) that you believe have a high likelihood of being acquired or taken private in this current environment? Thank You

Q: Related to Kevin's question... I own U, CRWD and NVDA in a TFSA and can't capture a tax loss if I were to sell U (I'm down significantly on the position). Would you suggest continuing to hold U in a registered account or selling and moving on to something else (likely increase NVDA holdings)?
