Q: Hello Team,

Bought IT @16.75 and I am down. Following the conference call about the MIP, does it make sense to average down at this time? I have rarely averaged down on any stock but for this stock which has dropped so much so quickly while the fundamentals appear to remain in place it would appear to be an opportunity. What is your opinion. I currently own 100 shares. Thank you!

Q: What do you think of the current streamlined management just announced? Is this good? or is it another warning sign like when the CFO left right before Q1 earnings last year? Thanks.

Q: I know you answered a similar question back on August 25th - but am wondering if you still have "faith" in this company's ability to deliver, especially with the 10% drop today. The chart looks so ugly - it could keep going down for a while.

I keep on hearing what a jerk the CEO but that he is talented.

If AVO were not still in the portfolio I would have tossed it but am now really at a tipping point: if worth keeping I should probably buy more (?); but if it is likely going to be dead money for 2-3 years, then I should move on to something with more
short / nearer term potential like a CXI - BOS - DRT.

I would appreciate your thoughts on this dilemma.

Q: Dewflation--it may sound weird but my greatest feat is an outbreak of deflation, perhaps world-wide.

In deflation, I know to avoid commodities but what else to avoid and what to invest in ---how do you handle investments in deflation.

Q: I missed the ride from the mid-20s to the mid-30s and wonder if now might be a good time to get in, or is it likely headed lower (still rather high p/e)

Thanks,

Q: In response to Bob's question about valuation metrics, you mention that "You can often find good value in companies in declining sectors but we would not view this as an attractive opportunity." Can you give an example?

Q: Good morning Peter and team,
I have some cash to invest and the 2 stocks I am still underweight from your equity balance portfolio are SYZ and ATD.B. I tend to favor ATD.B over SYZ although SYZ has dropped significantly. My portfolio is well balanced and would remain so after the purchase of either Co. Which one would you favor for a long term investment portfolio? Thank you for your unmatched service.
