Q: Hi Peter & 5i: Brookfield Residential's (BRP) share price has more than doubled within the last year. Is it too expensive to buy or hold at this point or are the numbers there to support the move and to suggest room for additional appreciation? Would you view the stock as an effective way to invest in the US real estate recovery from this point forward? Thanks as always!

Q: Hi Peter,

I'm really enjoying the service that you and your team provide. It was good to hear your clip on DNTO last year.

I'd like to get your thoughts on the Blackstone Group (NYSE: BX). I find their US real estate exposure, in particular, to be interesting and the private equity space seems to be regaining some momentum. Their recently announced distribution policy for 2013 looks like to could bear promise, although the stock could be considered to be expensive at its current level. Any comments you may have would be much appreciated.

Cheers,
Scott

Q: Re: Investment in Canadian Agriculture

Global population growth, combined with increasing standards of living in Asia will likely cause a rapid growth in the world demand for high protein food. Canada has ample fresh water, millions of acres of potentially productive land and, eventually, may be a net beneficiary of global warming. Looking to the mid-range future (5-10 years) can you identify investment opportunities related to an expanding role for Canada as a global supplier of foodstuffs through agricultural real estate, water diversion, irrigation and genetic modification technologies for crops and livestock?

Q: Hi Peter: I have read several articles recently pointing to Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore and Malaysia as being the next designated "emerging markets". Do you agree and if so, could you recommend an ETF containing primarily these regions.

Thank you
