Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, Team,
In answer to Peter's question today, we have used INVESTOOLS.COM owned by TD Ameritrade for 15 years now. They allow you a very large of portfolios- 50 or 60... Costs about 400$/ yr. Very user friendly. Easy on the eyes. We make sector portfolios and track them.
If anyone has a better suggestion, i would like to know. sarah

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Focus Graphite hit $1.78 in 2011...this year it has crashed from $0.69 to a new low of $0.16 today. I know the board dismissed there chief officer recently and they may not have the funding to begin production. Why do you think the stock is crashing? Is it lack of funding,inability to get the mine operational,poor management or all the above or am I missing something? It is my understanding that they have a quality asset and they have agreements for advance orders. Just based on there assets is this stock worth $0.16? So how would you rate its value...high risk?...a penny stock?... gambling?... or a fair long term contrarian buying opportunity?
Thanks as always...your insights are invaluable to retail investors!

Q: On a single, consolidated, basis, I'd like to be able to easily look at the holdings in all of my, and my wife's, accounts. This would be a spreadsheet alternative, and should help simplify sector allocation, etc.

Do you know of such a product?

[All accounts are with TD Waterhouse, but there's no indication separate/ combined views are possible with TDW's portfolio program.]

Q: What do you think of FTG's latest quarter? I like the currency torque(which should be even higher next quarter without the hedge in place) and aerospace tailwinds.

Is this a good small cap to buy?

Q: One of my designated long term investments - XTC just went over in the "overbought" territories today (RSI - 72.02). What usually follows after it reaches this threshold? Do SP a). usually retreat for good, b). retreat and then restart the climb again shortly, or c). going sideways from that point on?

If it's b). I might try to lock in the profit now and buy back at a lower price later. Is that a sound strategy? Your insight is much appreciated.

I have no experience in handling runaway winners. I'm good at dealing with losers though, lot of experience there.

Q: You previously indicated that you like PEY but your last commentary on this stock was in mid-April. Since then PEY was on steady decline loosing over 20% of value... I wonder what's your current opinion of Peyto: is it a buying opportunity after decline or is it hold or sell? I am currently down 10% on PEY and it is about 2.5% of my portfolio (total O&G is 12%).
Thanks.
