Q: Hi Peter,
HCG, AYA, MG, KEY, ALA and CNR all have pulled back quite significantly. Is this a good entry point to start a new position? Should I be concerned with housing market, rising interest rates that will potentially hurt these stocks? Which one do you prefer the most from these 5 names? Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Q: I recently interviewed a broker and I asked him what stocks he would recommend to buy tomorrow. He recommended ARX, BNS, DH, SU, WTE.
All of these stocks strike me as great recommendations in 2012 and are too expensive to buy now.
What is your view? Thanks.
