Q: LTS.us appears to be defying the mkt, and is steadily moving up. What is your assessment? And should I wait to buy? As a financial service company, though small in size, it may have found a niche that will propel it forward.

Q: This is a follow up question on Blackstone. Is it true that some private equity clients are trying to do deals themselves, reducing the need for services provided by companies like BX. Thank you.
Q: it seems to be gaining a little strength, am kind of around my projection, is there a reason to anticipate this stock you further achieve after what has all gone on
thanks
thanks
Q: Can I please have your opinion on Black Stone BX on NYSE. Is it a buy, hold or sell. Thank you.
Q: Och Ziff (OZM.us) has been plunging in recent weeks, and got beaten up a lot more this week. Markets appear to have been priced in the litigation risks OZM faces: class action suits; corruption charges; and misdemeanors in southern Africa). I have checked some financial sites, including key news sources in London and Frankfurt.
I have some OZM in an RSP . It was selected as a 2014 pick in January by Sabrient. Sabrient and its affiliate Gradient Analytics are generally good, notwithstanding they got this one wrong.
With the price drop in OZM , its dividend yield now screens sky high. Industry wags (T-Reuters, Research Team, Value Engine and 2 analyst houses I looked) still rate OZM as a buy.
OZM price and now looks too good to be true. One gets an uneasy feeling about it, but I don’t see any new info that wasn’t already in the public domain a month ago.
If you are able to comment on OZM, I would appreciate it very much.

Q: Could you please give me an updated opinion on ESRX? Could you also recommend 2-3 large cap US stocks for long term holding, likely to provide some growth and some dividend payment (my US holdings are ESRX, MMM, HCLP, JNJ, NVS and IWO)? Thank you for your excellent advice and congratulation on your charitable work.
Q: GE seems to be divesting its low margin businesses and becoming more of an industrial company again. I would expect a smaller and more profitable GE going forward. It's PE is below the general market and pays a good dividend. Is this a pound the table buy considering its fundatmentals and growth profile?

Q: What are your thoughts on SPTN : NASDAQ
Q: My US exposure is underweight. I am looking at Barclays (BCS), Lloyds (LYB), National Bank of Greece (NBG) as 3-5 year holds with the wishful thinking that they may return to their previous and glorious highs of 2007. Am I dreaming?
Alternatively, can you suggest any US regional banks for a similar timeframe and which large cap US bank, if any, is your favourite?
Thanks.
Steven

Q: Hi Peter & Team,
Re: Drone Manufacturers / UAV-UAS
I have found these big manufacturers of UAV-UAS:
1) AeroVironment, USA (“AVAV”- Nasdaq)
2) Aeron Labs, Waterloo, On.
3) Prioria Robotics, Florida
4) Aerosight, Oregon
5) Textron (NYSE - “TXT”)
Questions:

2) Is it too early to get into this area?
3) Which company would you recommend? (I guess my list is partial)

Q: Hello,
For the past year I've held a position in KORS which has done well but the last earnings report indicated slowing sales and weaker margins. Also, the technical chart doesn't look very promising and I'm considering selling. Any thoughts on this company?
Thank you
