Almost all Donville's worst moves could be considered as risky moves in the first place.Penetratorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01670644029306203741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031526429482744032.post-11697514181782840132016-07-28T07:30:15.989-07:002016-07-28T07:30:15.989-07:00I agree.

His "final thoughts" are:<br /><br />"After beating the market for eight years in a row, we find ourselves trailing the market at mid-year by a significant margin for the first time since we started in 2008. However, we feel we have repositioned the portfolio intelligently and Q3 is off to a good start. Keep your fingers crossed. I am optimistic for the balance of the year."<br /><br />It's probably a good thing that Jason has not been giving advice to the masses lately. He should be ashamed of himself for recommending garbage like Concordia Healthcare (now Concordia International) to the masses. It's very easy for a non-professional to get suckered in to investing in Concordia. There's no excuse for a professional with even basic accounting skills falling into that trap.Angelo Dallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15684479515068422912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031526429482744032.post-25470951898583720412016-07-24T16:35:15.233-07:002016-07-24T16:35:15.233-07:00I think Veronica's advice is decent.

Maybe he won't do well this year, but over the next 10, I still believe that he will outperform the market.<br /><br />I noticed Jason hasn't been on BNN since March? That seems longer than usual.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01086281469435469858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031526429482744032.post-83877435001054728982016-07-23T12:17:17.659-07:002016-07-23T12:17:17.659-07:00I'd love to buy Dollarama and Constellation So...I'd love to buy Dollarama and Constellation Software. Their R.O.E. numbers are absolutely amazing. Nobody deploys and compounds capital in Canadian Business as well as Larry Rossy at Dollarama and Mark Leonard of Constellation Software. HOWEVER, when a stock goes for 30 to 60 times earnings, it's just too expensive.<br />I think Veronika Hirsch is going to beat Donville's returns over the next couple of years. I think Francis Chu will too. A monkey throwing darts at the stock pages of Northern Miner (penny stocks in mining) will beat Jason Donville this year by a huge amount. Great companies are not necessarily great stock buys at this stage of the economic cycle (7 year bull market winding down). Terrible companies may be ridiculously under-valued (the commodities and mining companies are coming off multi year bear markets). A distinction has to be made between a great company and a great stock.Angelo Dallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15684479515068422912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031526429482744032.post-73244326481471295932016-07-23T05:50:16.243-07:002016-07-23T05:50:16.243-07:00Yeah, I know about her great returns.

Also, keep in mind she is still keeping approximately 50% of her Canadian Focus fund in CASH... She is waiting better prices...<br /><br />We did not see Jason since a long time!<br /><br />Have a nice week-end,<br /><br />ValueValue Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15163871064041908898noreply@blogger.com
