Q: Hello Peter & 5i Team
As a Canadian expat living in Europe, my current equity portfolio includes (in order of magnitude) European, Canadian, US and Australian equities. Given your experience in the industry, I would be interested in your views of international markets. More specifically, would North American markets provide better/worse growth/income etc than European markets or vice versa. I appreciate this is a very broad question that includes currency risk among others but I was wondering whether there is a "common knowledge" within the investment industry of the pros/cons of investing in the various markets with respect to quality of company reporting, dividend issuance, growth potential etc.
Your insight is always appreciated and I am constantly learning from your replies and reports. Thank you.

Q: Are the Chinese companies listed on the NYSE subject to the same scrutiny as all other listed companies with regards to financials? Do you think it is safe to invest in a China company today? If so there are 3 companies that look interesting that I would only invest an 1/2 position in one of the possible following unless you think I should stay away: VIPS.US, BITA.US and XRS.US

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Hi Peter, do get well soon. Now, What are your thoughts on a company called UNR Holdings, UNRH. I know its extremely small, so very high risk, but man, its trading fairly cheap. Is it because of its market cap? or is there something else going on?

Q: Could you recommend a good European ETF?
Q: May I have your opinion on the ADR IRE. Thanks
Q: What are your thoughts on the Brazil economy. I own a small stake in XBZ, which has provided a decent return over the last year, although it is quite volatile. With the upcoming World Cup and the media attention this will bring, do you think now is a good time to sell my stake in XBZ and wait until after the World Cup finishes to reinvest in this ETF?
Q: Could I please get your comments on HDB-N. The long term chart looks good. What is your opinion on investing in an India bank? Is there anything special about India accounting principles I should know about? Thanks for your help.
Q: It's my understanding that the yields on Greek, Spanish and Irish debt are currently trading at very thin spreads to US teasuries. My instinct is that this represents an overall high level of risk complanency in the markets in general and that we are likely due for some weakness ahead as things normalize. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.
Thanks,
Thanks,
Q: National Bank of Greece ( NBG-U.S.)
Big drop today.
Issuing more shares.
No Dividend
A lot of Government ownership.
Is this a viable investment for a long term hold?
Do you think Europe would allow it to 'fail'?
Thank-you, Robert
