Q: Hi Peter & 5i: The "hockey stick" graph for Tesla Motors (TSLA - NASDAQ) was really extended today, with its breakout through $100 being also a break up to the $110 level. What would you do if you had some now: halve it, hold it, or jump to the sidelines? (The position is less than 5% even after today's move but big enough that halving it is feasible.) Can you comment in general terms about handling stocks making moves of this kind? Thanks!

Q: FNMA FMCC
These two mortgage companies had a great run in the last month. Is it because US mortgage is making a turnaround, and these two have been sold down to ridiculously level, or it all a hype?
Mahendra Sharma is very bullish on these two stocks and looking for $30 or higher.

Q: Hi Peter:
I have owned a good chunk of BHP for several years, which has never showed much sparkle. A plus for BHP is having positions in many varied commodities. Do you think there are better options in or out of this sector (I do realize the current funk this segment is in).
Keep up the great work

Q: WMB NYSE-what do think about me buying this one for my USD portfolio? I do not own any CDN equivalents as they look very expensive. They plan on > dividend by 20% ea over the next 3 years. They have bought two complimentary companies recently as well which should increase cash flow etc. However metrics looks awful: very high debt, high Payout ratio etc.

Q: I recently held a MLP in my RIFF account, which I sold because there was a 39 percent withholding on the dividend payment, and no way to receive a credit for the foreign tax paid.. Would this also apply to the recently discussed RNF, which is a limited partnership? Do you know if there is any method of determining in advance if there will be tax withheld on dividends paid by a particular security?
