Q: Hi 5i Team Further to questions asked by Gordon and others concerning the accounting at the Brookfields complex, I own BIP and BEP and I'm worried too specially because I have had previous experience with the Hees/Edper complex. The largest ever lost in my portfolio (I'm a conservative investor) was Royal Trust. It was tucked away in a similar complex of cross holdings and lost over 90% of its value in the early 90's. It was supposed to be a safe holding. Please could you keep a close eye on these guys for us? Henry

Q: MBC MBAC Fertilizer has fallen quite a bit. Two of the houses who helped MBC raise funds at $2.70 last fall and more recently at $3.40 seemed quite willing to sell me shares below these offering prices. Two questions: Do you like MBC here and why would these houses do this kind of selling to their customers?

Q: Hi Peter,

If a company makes an all time high does it merit an investment.
I bought kbl and wpk on those grounds coupled with your fundamentals and its working nice for me. It would also be nice to know when to book profits.

Thanks

Q: Hi Peter. I've been following Nordic American Tanker { NAT } Recently it has had a pretty fair move to the upside, But still yields around 6.5%. My first question is: Is there a web site I can monitor VLCC daily rates. NAT's break even point is around $1250 per day. And what are your thoughts on the future of this stock.
Thanks Garth

Q: Hi Peter,

I recently came across an article in the Financial Post regarding shipping oil & gas by rail and the backlog of orders for the specialized tank cars for doing so. The article mentions the major producers of tank cars: Trinity Industries (TRN), Greenbier (GBX) as well as American Railcar (ARII). I'd love to hear your thoughts on those companies in this regard. Here is the article:
