Q: this question is about i shares silver trust etf, slv:us, just in case your section above does not pick up the stock again!
Do you think this is a good way to invest in silver, my understanding is that it holds the actual sliver. also the forward calls on this product seem to have a very reasonable spread, as far as risk reward goes it seems like a good way to get some torque on a 3 to 6 month trade on silver, realizing of course your call premium could expire worthless.
thanks TOM

Q: I read a previous response regarding TA & RNW. You stated that TA owns 37% of RNW but from what I can find, it appears they actually own 64%. Can you please clarify this and then provide your comments on purchasing TA as a deep value play. If they actually own 64% of RNW, it appears to be extremely reasonably priced (you are almost getting the TA assets for free...)

Thoughts?

Q: Hello 5I,

It appears that the group that started Healthlease Investments, which were bought out in 2014, is back in 2016 with Mainstream Health Investment. The last time they were very successful after their IPO at $10; building a company that was bought out at $14.30.
Would appreciate your thoughts on management and any opinion you would have about the company. (Their corporate structure appears a bit confusing.)

Cheers,
Bob Ahearn

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
I manage an income oriented account which closely tracks the 5i Income Portfolio. However within that account I do have a small basket of more growthy but still steady eddy names with position weights of 2% each. The idea is to squeeze out a bit more return than just income stocks over time. The present holdings are GUD, SIS, ESL, SYZ, BCI, PKI. I was thinking of adding FSV and DSG to this group. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. DL

Q: How do you use trend analysis to determine if a stock is trading at a good entry point? For example, WPK is trading at $46.52 as I write. Its 10 year trend line value using linear regression is $36, but the 1 year comparison is $49. Is WPK trading above or below its trend line ie based on 1 years trading it appears under valued, but using the 10 year value it appears currently over priced. Thank you.

Q: Hi , I am contemplating doing some bottom fishing with money set aside for higher risk plays .
PHO by the books looks good , is there any possibility the recent loan fiasco could lead to criminal charges?
On the damage control conference call they mentioned a potential 1 time special dividend and even possibly putting the ompany up for sale .
With the books looking so good , does this seem to have more upside potential , than down ?
Thanks,
David

Q: Hello thinking of switching out of this stock. While there is a dividend it isn't large enough to offset in my opinion the geographic doldrums. Am thinking of switching to SIA or Milestone REIT. I do not need the income but want some dividend and some capital appreciation. Do you have a preference or another recommendation?? Thanks, Bill
