Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Although your focus is not junior resource companies would you be able to provide me with an update on Mirasol resources. In particular the president and CEO has resigned and been replaced. Also Oceana Gold has terminated its options agreements for two of the projects. In your opinion do either of these recent announcements raise a red flag. There is also a new independent director appointed but I'm not sure what that position means.
Also could you provide information on their cash position, insider holdings and recent buying or selling, and any fundamentals that you might consider important.
Thank you.

Q: I had been using BTO as a stock to swing trade and sometimes day trade based on the swings in gold. I have done well with this strategy but after the most recent quarter have lost some confidence in this stock. I am looking for a replacement. Can you please recommend 2 gold stocks that meet my criteria: sufficient liquidity for me to easily move in and out of $80k positions, solid overall financial and production metrics and solid enough overall that if I need to hold the position for a few months I can be comfortable knowing I have a solid company. I have no current gold exposure.

Q: CSO now has a few quarters under its belt as a strictly metallurgical coal producer - is it looking like a survivor in its field (metrics improving?)?
Also, on 13-March near the end of the day, 10x the average volume was traded in one minute and at about 9% above the intraday high to that point. Any information on that trade, or insight?

Q: What do you think of Osisko Mining for a growth play in the gold mining and exploration sector? Kirkland Gold has built a 10%+ stake in the past months, do you find it interesting? And what do you think of the announcement of their new spin-out : O3 mining?
Could you also recommend other small to mid caps in the gold mining and/or exploration ?

Thank you!

Q: Hi,
I have shares of Equinox Gold in my TFSA and a few months ago they separated their copper assets into a company called Solaris Copper Inc. There was no value assigned to the shares, I'm not sure if they are even a public company yet.
Regardless I assumed the shares will just sit there until a value is assigned and they could be traded publicly. Recently I received a letter from iTRADE informing me that the shares of Solaris are a non qualified security and all income earned and all capital gains derived from the non-qualified investment will be reported to Canada Revenue Agency on a T3RET trust return . Any tax payable on this amount will be levied directly against the TSFA account.
Can you explain this to me? The shares have no value so I can't see that I am on the hook for any penalty. 50% of $0 is $0. Secondly I am angry at Equinox for putting me in this position.
Thanks,
Charlie
