Q: Hi Peter and Team, regarding Novus, NVS, I just read that Hong Kong Economics Times has a blurb about Yanchang Petrolium International Ltd wanting to fully acquire NVS for 500 million Cdn 'according to market sources'! Have you heard this through your sources by any chance? If possibly true, then would this value NVS shares at about 2.20 cdn per share (after debt repayment) or have I miss calculated? Is it just another rumour or will NVS be required to halt the stock and report on this if there's some truth to it? Your thoughts on this before markets open would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Q: TEVA has been a holding of mine for several years and has been the epitome of dead money. There's certainly been no growth and I wonder is the true PE 8X or 80X as some have it? Can you recommend an U.S. ETF that would represent the industry bearing in mind that I also hold Pfizer?

I note that Valeant is now in the top ten of large cap Canadian companies and do you think it can overtake companies higher up on the list such as Enbridge? Thanks, J.
