Q: Hi Peter and team, leading gold mining companies like G, ABX, YRI, K are all trading at multi year low levels. P/B ratios for YRI and K are well below 1. Aren't these companies are deeply undervalued? If so is it ok to have a slight bias towards gold mining sector to seize an opportunity for the next 6 - 12 months.

Q: I enjoy the weekly 5 from 5i. Thank you for that value added information.

This week the article on the solar industry piqued my curiosity. Are there any US or Canadian stocks that you can recommend for an investor wanting to test the waters in this industry, and preferably not get burned?

As usual, thank you for your help.

Q: Greetings from BC: I read the following in a gaming article, but I did not see any of this news coming from the company. Does that mean that it is not "material"? The article said it was the reason behind Amaya's recent drop in share price. The whole gray-market issue is not something I've heard much about, but I guess Canada is also a gray market. Perhaps they are doing this to clean up Poker Stars and Full-Tilt in order to prepare to face US regulators?

Amaya Gaming withdraws from 'gray areas'
Since the acquisition of their parent company Oldford Group Limited by the Amaya Gaming Group, PokerStars and Full Tilt have already undergone several significant changes. These included, amongst others, the launch of the new PokerStars 7 client and an opening to the casino world with the inclusion of roulette and blackjack games to PokerStars.es.

Amaya CEO David Baazov says the company intends to use both PokerStars and Full Tilt to enter new verticals like casino and the sports betting, but the group does not seem keen to keep working in "gray markets" where online games are not expressly prohibited or strictly regulated.

What do you think?

Q: Hi 5i team,
I am wondering whether to cut losses on BDI, it seems in a freefall for the past 6 months. The stock is down over 30% from its high point in May and continues its decline today despite overall market direction. Yesterday, I received notification from BMO that 5 brokerages either downgraded or cut prices on BDI... I know you were positive on BDI in the past, what are your current thoughts on this stock. Are fundamentals still solid? Do you anticipate it to recover from current lows within one year timeframe? Thanks.

Q: Since you have downgraded this stock by 2 notches would you now say that it is a sell rating? I currently owned this stock in my RRSP and wonder if I should sell and replace with another stock?
Thanks
