Q: Hello,

in order to diversify my investment I would like to buy some Alibaba stock... After the recent jumps at Chinese market it went down significantly and I trust it may be a good time. At the same time I know that YHOO is going to spin off it's part in Alibaba. And here is the question (or even two questions):

1)what do you think about BABA perspective for the next 12 months?

2) how this YHOO spin of their Alibaba shares will affect both parties: YHOO and BABA?

Thank you for sharing your opinion!

Your comments please. Sell/hold or opportunity to add?

Thank you!

Q: Recently, when running stock screens for US companies showing a combination of value/growth characteristics, these two companies (Applied Industrial Technology and Sun Hydraulics)constantly showed up for their strong fundamentals. I do realize that you specialize in Canadian stocks but wondered if you had an opinion on these two companies for a long term investor. Thank-you.

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
In response to an email about my portfolio, you suggested that I get some US exposure via an ETF. I do not believe in ETFs because it usually includes the good along with the bad and even the ugly. Would you please suggest 5 or 6 US names whose performance would be in line with the 17% pa that I'm getting with my Canadian holdings?
Thanks,
Antoine
