Q: Hello 5i,
I’m looking to buy company’s with my US dollars, the list of candidates is, Amlin PLC (APLCY), GEO Group (GEO), FLY Leasing (FLY), Ensco (ESV), Belgacom SA (BGAOY) and SSE PLC (SSEZY). I’m looking for a company with a good sustainable dividend with some growth. What do you believe is the best two or three stocks in the group, for the long run?
Many Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter - I purchased GOOG stock on March 28th @ $1,120. I also received notification of a Special Dividend. Do you have information on the special dividend and how it may impact the GOOG price in the short and long term. My investment objective is LONG TERM as I view GOOG as a premium company in this space.

Thank You for the great service! My best investment in recent Years has been membership to 5i.

Q: What is your view of the senior loan floating rate funds, like SSF.UN or MFR.UN? They look interesting with fairly high yields and mostly ROC for tax purposes. Also seem to trade below NAV. How secure are the loans and does the floating rate really provide any inflation protection (as they promote)? Would you buy today, solely for income, and do you have a preference in the group?

Thank-you

Q: Hi Peter, a very illiquid stock, Senvest (SEC.to) is showing huge earnings, trades at only 2x or so right now. Any thoughts on this co, is it just too illiquid to touch or is it worth a taste.

Thanks a lot

Q: This is in response to Kelly's question about good books for recent grads. I've found the rich dad poor dad series to be informative. One concept that's very helpful is the author's suggestion of looking at investments through young eyes. The younger generation knew about facebook, Michael Kors, Under Armour, Chipotle, LULU well before they became mainstream. In the same vein Peter Lynch, how to beat the street is an easy to implement investing strategy that compliments the above.

Q: I am overweight with BNS in my rrsp account . I am prepared to sell
500 shares at $67.00 Is there any advantage in trying to do a covered call while i wait for the share to reach $67.00 and if so is there a risk I might have to
settle on a price below $67. I have never used an option in the past and want to know if it might be feasible in this instance .
Also I really liked the video did on the most popular 5 questions . It was very well done , relevant , clear , and brief . Hope more will follow ., When will the revised model portfolio be released . Thanks Rick

Q: Hello
Not a question- but a response to Kelly's question on financial reading. I found William Bernsteins book "The Four Pillars of Investing" to be very good. It may be out of print- but I'm certain could be found online. Highly recommended.
Regards
