Q: Valeant Pharmaceuticals and Concordia in the last few days have been absolutely punished. What has been the rational as they are currently at ridiculously low PE's and seem to have a strong balance sheet and pipeline. Is this a good buying opportunity?

Q: This is a follow up question from Kristine's question on SDIV.US on October 21, 2015. Global X SDIV vs. DIV seems to be a Global vs. US equities ETF comparison, but can you recommend any comparable, better options to consider? (taking into account comparable monthly yields). Also looking to hold this in a $USD account, not concerned about tax implications for this comparison - just looking for fund recommendations only. Thx!

Q: Hello everyone. This has been a painful investment for me. I believe in the turnaround in this name so I have increased my position. One has to look back to DEC 2008 to find the stock price down at these levels. Yes things are different but when I add up the some of the parts if someone was to strip it down and sell off it seems to be at a discount. Could I have your view on what you see the dollar per share for the some of the parts/cash and also the dividend going forward. Thank you again for your assessment. Jay

Q: The share price of DH has been sold down steady of late. Is it just the trader playing their usual game, or something happened to its operations that we should be aware of. Thanks.

Q: In your estimation will the Healthcare sector be effected by what is currently happening to Valeant, Concordia, PHM etc. It's the old cockroach theory. An ETF such as ZUH or comparable products might not be immune. Would it be wise to avoid this sector until the dust settles? Would it be wise to get out entirely for the time being?

Thanks

Q: Hello Peter & 5i team,
I'm quite frustrated at the way the market reacts to a Citron report whose motivation is quite questionable; is it not possible that their report is so designed as to support their objective of shorting the stock?
Supposing their report is misleading, how is it possible that they can get away with it with impunity?
Now that the QSC starts investigating Valeant, who is investigating Citron?
Regards,
Antoine

Q: Your report on GUD indicated a very favourable view of the company. I would appreciate your thoughts on the possibility/likelihood of the very smart and very patient Mr. Goodman taking advantage of the recent slaughter among many of the small cap specialty pharma companies. Is this when that large cash balance starts to be deployed?
Thanks.

Q: Hi guys,

Would it be possible to get some help regarding how many shares, of the 4 million, Glenn Chamandy has sold already in his share disposition plan?

CIBC's Investor's Edge has consensus 2016 estimates at $1.91US which translates to $2.51 Canadian. The shares, here, look pretty attractive to me, trading at just over 15x 2016 estimated earnings. However, I'm not sure I want to add to my position if Mr. Chamandy still has several more weeks of selling ahead of him.

Thanks for your help.

John
