Q: Hi Peter & Team,
I am thinking to invest in VGR, but with the Canadian $ is so low, does it make sense to invest in the US stock market these days, with about 14% up-charge? (maybe by the time I'll sell it, the Canadian $ will strengthen and I will lose the exchange rate - I don't think the exchang rate will be lower)
Also, I could not find any Canadian tobacco listed in Canada.
Do you know and recommend any?
Thanks,

Q: This stock has been beaten up over the last while; however, reported good Q4 results & guidance for 2015. It appears to have no debt., low payout ratio with reasonable ROE. I'd like to see a better dividends-but, was thinking of it as a position for my USD portion of my portfolio with the hopes of dividend increases and capital gains? I'd probably sell PBI which I have held for quite a while to buy this stock.

Q: What do you think of Ebix?

I did a simple screen of US stocks and came across this one with a low PE (below 10) and a modest dividend (above 2%). Why has it performed so poorly and is it reasonably safe to invest for the medium term?
