Q: Hi 5i,

Thank you for the great work. My experience grocery shopping this weekend is that the stores are busier than ever.

Is it to simplistic to look at the current virus volatility as an opportunity to add to positions in the grocery companies?

Currently I have existing positions in Empire and Metro.

Thank you in advance.

L Cons Staples:Healthcare
CTC.A Cons Staples:Cons Discret
ENB Energy:Utilities
TRP Energy:Utilities
SIS Industrial:Healthcare

Are there any others of note that you can think of?

Thank you,

Q: Hi, I hold full positions in ATD, L, and PBH. My PBH is down about 20%, however, and I have a small position in WN as a result of the spin-off.

I need to increase my consumer defensive and am debating whether to bring WN up to a full position or average down on PBH. I know you aren't a fan of averaging down and you also aren't a fan of holding very small positions so I'm leaning toward adding to WN.

Your thoughts?

Thanks,
Robert
