Q: Hello 5i,

What are your thoughts on the cloud computing sector? After IBM recently bought softlayer - Do you foresee more takeovers in the near future?

As a side note it would be helpful on the website to have a search function that isn't restricted to a stock symbol only.

Q: As was mentioned earlier by one member T.D.Waterhouse have informed their clients that effective Sept.15 they will be charging their clients $2 per envelope to mail monthly statements and trade confirmations.This will effectively raise their commission fees by about 50% ($2 for the stock trade and $2 for the money market sale.)Thus the cost of a trade at T.D.Waterhouse will be $9.99 +$2 +$2 = 13.99.If one agrees to receive these documents on-line there will be no additional charge.I mention this so that anyone contemplating changing to T.D.Waterhouse will be aware of the implications. If you feel this info is worthwhile feel free to publish it.Thanks again for your great service.

Q: Hi Peter & Team:
I own shares in Westaim [wed]. I notice that the top three execs have purchased 51% of the shares.There is 36 mil on the bal sheet.They are looking for a good opportunity and in the interim collect a total of 800 k a year in salaries while doing their regular jobs. What would prevent them from taking the company private at a low price per share purchase from the minority shareholders. Do you see it as foolhardy to purchase more shares.
Thanking you in advance
BEN
