Q: I bought PIH on momentum a couple of days ago at what appears to have been the worst possible time. The recent price action is a little puzzling, although I know it's not uncommon for a small cap up massively to experience some volatility. To keep the faith I am trying to look for as many signals as are available. One thing I am interested in in particular is insider trading data. Do you see any recent insider trading happening at PIH? Additionally, in general I am wondering how frequently insider trading data is required to be published and what are the best places to find it. Thanks for everything.

Suggestions for new holdings with a dividend > 3% please.

Thanks for your help...Steve

Q: I was saddened to hear about the tragic loss of CEO of Spectra7. Where does this leave the company, since it is a small company? Do you feel they can move forward, or more likely to try sell the company now? I imagine it will take a long time to regain their footing? Or was there a lot of operational involvement from others in the company that could move it forward?
