Q: In a brief release I see MAXR is being taken out by private equity for $1B, but the rise in share price this morning has the Mkt Cap at $1.26B. Can you explain the difference, e.g., does the 1B include or exclude debt carried by the company, is this a signal someone else might come in higher? What is your recommendation, hold or sell into this strength?

Thx, John

Q: For most of the year traditional bricks and mortar retailers have pretty much been left for dead .... other than the discount chains like TJ Maxx .... and the LULU's of this world.

Recently the XRT and stocks like M has been on a tear.
Two questions :
1. Could you justify buying M now based on consumer strength in the US, valuable real estate and apparently a "safe" dividend of about 9%.
2. What do you think of buying the XRT here.

All of this for a diversified portfolio looking for some G and good income.

Thanks

Q: Hello 5I; Microsoft has had a very successful run; it is hard to argue with success but some commentators on BNN have suggested it has now reached a bit of a top and will not continue to rise. Other BNN commentators have pointed to CVS as being good value and past their problems. I am thinking of a switch. Can you analyze the prospects for these two and provide your thoughts on this idea. Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hi there,
I know this is a bit out of your wheelhouse but i will ask anyways. I currently own Duke Realty which i have done well with. However, i am thinking of switching from Duke to Digital Realty given the recent correction in Digital. I know it will take some time to absorb their recent acquisition but i like their future growth given their expertise in Digital Data centres and the trend in Cloud computing. Your thoughts on the switch. I am looking for a bit of growth along with a nice divi.
I pay no trading fees so that is not a consideration!

(Sorry if this is a duplicate question - my computer died while i was submitting so not sure it went through)
