Q: Good Morning, Thanks again for starting 5i. My question is about BMTC Group (GBT.A- T). It certainly had been a stellar performer during the past decade or so with increasing dividends, share buybacks, good share price performance. However, lately sales are dropping and I cannot get a sense as to whether this is a temporary situation or something much more serious. I would appreciate your opinion. (I hold the stock)
Thanks alot Peter.

Q: Peter, just a short note to say thank you, for your July 24, 2012, response on silver stocks. I got lucky and bought shares of PAA same day at $13.89. Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.WB
Best regards Larry

Q: Hi Peter, A bit ashamed to ask this question. I am a per. shareholder of yellow pages. From what I understand the banks say that there is no need to restrucure.. I do not want to see them restucture, as we would not have our Per. share statues, if that means anything. If they do restucture we become common shareholders and that is really worth nothing. I feel the C.E.O. should be fired before anything is done. Your comments please Do they really need to restucture? ken

Q: BZH:US I recently picked up a small position in Beazer Homes USA. It as popped nicely and I would like to buy my next third. The potential could be huge judging by the multiyear chart. What does your team think?

Q: Hi Peter,
Can you please explain negative interest rates on bonds in Europe. Is the yield negative because of strong demand (i.e. prices getting bid up) or are these bonds just issued with buyers knowing that at maturity they'll get less than their origianal investment back? Thanks as always!

Q: Hi Peter. Nice call on Davis&Henderson. I'm up 15% in just over a month!! Should I take the profit or hang on for more upside?

Q: On SSL you predicted a stock issue was likely and 2 days later it happened. I want to learn from this, so could you give some additional detail on why you thought this was likely to occur.

Q: Hi Peter,

While at Sprott you liked the potential of Sensio Technologies as it could possibly become the defacto standard of 3D transmission technology. Are the recent signings something that you envisioned would happen a few years ago? In light of these recent signings by Sensio is there still potential for your initial investment thesis to take hold. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Provides a kitty of ~$175M.I have a larger position in this company and would really like to know if this changes your perspective on the company.I know you were concerned in the past that they were not cashed up to capitalize on the current opportunities.
Your thoughts once again, appreciated.

Q: Alta Gas [ALA] is almost 20% of my non-reg portfolio. Avg div yield based on my cost is 6.88% [I've held it for a few years]. Can you recommend a similar stock with a good yield and limited downside that I could review? I need the dividend income ALA generates.
