Q: I heard about this one to-day on BNN: auto prop. leased to dealership who are responsible for all prop. servicing costs - long-term leases with 1.3% escalation clause annually, long-term debt. just over 3% not due until 2022. Looks like a great set-up - comments please. Have been adding new dealership properties - one just recently.

Q: You have presented some very compelling and cogent reasons for avoiding the Ultrashorts of this world (e.g. SPXS). Apart from protecting a portfolio with stop loss orders and careful diversification, what do you suggest for proper downside participation or protection in the current environment?
Thank you for your excellent service!

Q: Hi:

I have been comparing the key statistics for EMA and BEP for the years 2011 – 2014, and EMA appears to be the clear winner on paper. I know that BEP has strong backing from BAM, is globally positioned and pays a higher dividend. I hold a full position in BPY.UN and BIP.UN in a reasonably diversified portfolio.
Because of my age income and security of capital are more important than growth.

Are there other considerations that I am not taking into account in deciding which to invest in?

Q: This is a mortgage insurer with great fundamentals: TTM PE 5.8, ROE 11.6%, P/B of 0.65, D/E of 13%, low P.R. and has beat EPS last 3 Q 2015 & increased it's dividend in Nov. 2015. The company does not think we are going to have a real estate crash - neither do I - only caveat is AB - what is their exposure there as a % of their total book? This is a pure negative sentiment play, I guess? Stock is down a lot since Nov. 25 th even with the D > & EPS beat. What am I missing here??

Q: Hi team,
I am aware of your positive view on this company and am a follower of BNN,and noticed that Peter will be guest of Market call this Friday,Jan.15. He will possibly be asked by a viewer/follower about his opinion of PHM.
Fabrice Taylor was a guest on BNN, 2015-12-04,and mentioned that this company would"probably be sold in the next 12 months" I have not heard that they were up for sale,and as a speculation what would be a fair price should it be taken over?
Many thanks,
Jean C.

Many thanks,
