Q: FNMA FMCC
These two mortgage companies had a great run in the last month. Is it because US mortgage is making a turnaround, and these two have been sold down to ridiculously level, or it all a hype?
Mahendra Sharma is very bullish on these two stocks and looking for $30 or higher.

Q: I have subscribed to various investment letters in the past and at some point-it was always the lack of follow up or the inability to get any further input on the proposed investment. You are on to something good here and it is also affordable.

Thanks Warren

Q: Hello Peter and the 5i team: Your new report on AVO is very informative. I've observed that many of your stock picks have a beta of less than one, according to the TMX website. As a retiree wishing for lower volatility, this is important to me. When I look at the beta for AVO, it is a negative value (-0.229). Does this imply that AVO is a very stable stock? The concept of negative beta is confusing! Thanks in advance.

Thanks

Q: Hi Peter:
I have owned a good chunk of BHP for several years, which has never showed much sparkle. A plus for BHP is having positions in many varied commodities. Do you think there are better options in or out of this sector (I do realize the current funk this segment is in).
Keep up the great work

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

Another quick note on another internet banking company called First Internet Bankcorp, INBK. This company seems to be trading at a discount to book, however, they have the potential to grow rapidly and they also pay a dividend. Your thoughts?

Q: Hi Peter,
I am curious about stocks that are listed in both Canada and the US. There is sometimes a differential (and I think above and beyond the exchange differential) and sometimes they are even moving in different directions. Could you please explain any advantages/disadvantages with Canadian vs US holdings of the same corporation? And which type of US stocks have withholding tax and is that tax withheld even if I hold the stocks in my RSP? Thanks so much for your help!
