Q: When the principals at phm caused the sudden downdraft there seemed to be a similar downturn in other pharma stocks in a similar market space. I tend to assume that this will not change until PHM reports earnings on a similar pace as last quarter and/or the market figures out that the new CEO has been highly successful in the past and is likely to be a good one here. 3 specific questions. 1. Do you agree with my above general assessment. 2. Does the new CEO hold an interest in the company/is some compensation in stock? 3) when does phm report earnings
?

Great deal..... great service.... one very satisfied customer. Thank you!! My question is about XHB. What is your opinion on holding it for income without risking a significant drop in capital value in a rising interest rate environment?

Q: What metrics should one use to evaluate this company? The ones available are confounding: forward PE of 243, -75% ROE yet it trades at an all time high (impressive given current conditions). Revenue and Earnings growth doesnt seem that impressive. Is it good value here and if so based on what measure? Would BAM be a comparable company, which is better value? Finally, would you rank OCX as an A or B company? Thank-you.

Q: Two questions here (to save sending 2 separate items) - and maybe the answers will differ regarding timing new buys in these 2 sectors.

With most bank stocks and even the better rated energy stocks hovering just above or just below 52 week lows, would you be comfortable buying any of the banks or energy stocks right now or have we not seen "the whites of their eyes" yet?

In an earlier question (I believe) you suggested not buying anything for a couple of weeks.

Would the same apply here?

Thanks. (What a great resource to have in trying to figure out how best to invest).

Q: CODI has been described as a mini-Berkshire Hathaway buying smaller companies, recently selling Camelbak and adding Manitoba Harvest to their portfolio. Being an old fart a hemp based food business strikes me as somewhat fad oriented but a lot of people have made a lot of money off of fads. Trading at a low P/E and a having a yield around 8.7%, what are your thoughts on this company ?

Q: Morning Peter and Team,
Seems AFN has been caught in the current downdraft. (not to mention the western Canadian drought). I purchased the company after your recent report. I'm down 16%. It's dividend is now over 6%. Do you think it's safe. Also, is this the kind of company that can withstand a possible global recession caused by the "China Problem"? What is the downside?

Also, what is your opinion regarding the impact China's economic problems could have on the global economies
As always, thanks for your opinions.
