Q: Peter (and friends) i notice there hasn't been a question on TAL International Group for more than a year. Is it a reasonable price now and, as an income investor, can i tuck this away for a while or does it need to be watched closely.
Thanks

Q: Hi, I am trying to build a diversified portfolio and am a long term investor. The one area I am a little light is technology. I was looking for some broad market exposure to this sector in the form of an ETF. Do you have a recommendation for this sector?
Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter&5i: I have for some time now owned American Tower (AMT), on the thesis that owning the wireless infrastructure that everyone has no choice but to use is apt to be a pretty good gig. Also it gave me exposure to the American dollar through what I considered to be a blue-chip US large-cap. Within the last few days however Carson Block/Muddy Waters (remember Sinoforest?) released an exposé style report on AMT, concluding that it was close to double its defensible valuation. What do you think? I have been using it as a cornerstone holding. Would you trim it back before seeing how things shake out? Thanks!!

Q: Hi 5iResearch. I know this is outside of your coverage universe, but I would really like to ask your opinion of a US-listed company: LinkedIn (NYSE: LNKD).

I use it and it seems like more and more people are using it. It is a high growth company and in the last couple years has really carved out a nice piece of the HR Recruitment space in the market. It's always hard to tell with such a "new" business model and company, but please give your opinion about this company and companies like this that are embarking on the internet/mobile advertising and social networking space.

Q: Not a question but a remark in regard to a question to you today about GE. I was watching BNN today and Andrew Bell said that GE is cutting back on GE Financial. He said if it was a bank it would be the 5th largest in the USA. GE is reportedly cutting back on the financial business in order to concentrate on the industrial business.
