Q: I haven't been interested in Patient Home Monitoring PHM, until now, because of the price drop. What does PHM mean when they describe themselves as "focused on rolling-up annuity-based healthcare service companies..."? I believe that "rolling-up" means buying and consolidating companies. But what do they mean by "annuity-based"? I googled the term and there's virtually nothing except the quote I just gave.Thanks!

Q: I bought XTC based on your report touting this name as the "perfect stock". I see it as a growth stock with a negligible dividend. So far its SP popped heading into the announcement of the last two quarterly results and so far have slide back thereafter. It just does not seem to have any traction to hold onto those the gains, or advances based on the growth reported.

Has XTC hit the "proverbial wall" that all stocks do? Even Disney and Apple hit that wall eventually. I'm sitting on a small gain with XTC now, other than advising patience, would you recommend that I should sell before the next run up to Q3 earnings, say when its SP hits $18+? After all a growth stock that stops growing is dead money and I should really move on.

Your take on my view is much appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter,
Constellation software keeps dropping. Is this just a reaction to the current market conditions and that it has had a good return of the year, and hence profit taking? Also, I thought (from what I read) Fairfax had its portfolio setup such that it would be protected somewhat to declines in the market, yet it is dropping like other stocks. Any comments please? Thanks again.

Q: There is relentless selling going on with PHM, and it seems there is no bottom for it. There are 46 millions of shares financed at $1.50 will come to free trade in September. Do you think PHM will be under more pressure around that time? Should investors just take a loss and move on? Do you know any company can make a turn around like this from your past experience?

Q: What do you think about Emera earnings? They don't look that great to me, but the market loves the big dividend increase and higher predicted dividend growth rate. Can they do this based on predicted cash flow growth, or will it be by increasing the payout ratio? Thanks for you comments.

Q: Hi Peter, I have just read in the financial news this morning "Germany's 2-year yield fell to a fresh record low of -0.29 percent as investors feared the deflationary pressures of a slowdown in China - which devalued its currency on Tuesday - would sap growth around the rest of the world". (Ref: Reuters). Question: how can a yield of minus 0.29 percent be possible? Thanks, Gervais
