Q: VALE.US
Do you have any thoughts on VALE.US? It's up only 6% in a year, but has a nice dividend. Any thoughts on upside or is it time to sell? Thanks!

Q: AT&T (T.US)

Hi Team, I know you don't specialize in US stocks, but I was hoping you could give me an opinion on AT&T. It appears to have a very low P/E of 10.7 TTM and pays a dividend of 5.06%. The payout ratio is 39.7%. The main negative I can see a potential forecast for lower earnings per share. Do you think this stock is worth owning for income long term?

Thanks. Michael

Q: Hi 5i: I know it may not be one you follow closely, but can you please give me your take on Swift Transportation (SWFT), its announced results missing estimates, and the market's reaction to that? It is kind of odd considering it in relation to the TransForce/Contrans situation and the expectation that those businesses are on the upswing. Thanks.
