Investment Q&A

Q: Sherrit has been on a good tear the last few days, without significant new information (far as I can tell) since their quarterly update.

Is this recent uptick due to production results at Ambatovy? Do you think funds are buying in?

More importantly, where do you think this stock will be in 6-12 months?

Thx,

Cam.

Q: There has been quite an upward move in CUM lately. Last year I watched my stocks go up and continued to hold as it went right down. I am showing some good profits. Should I dump it? I also hold Hudbay and Tech. Thanks

Q: Hi Peter & Team,
Could you please comment on Lundin Mining. Is it expensive after share price jumped recently?

Thanks

Q: Hi all, After the decline today, what are your thoughts on going forward. Janice

Q: Hi everyone. Sure appreciate all the research. My question is on Coeur Mining. It trades on NYSE symbol CDE at a price about $5.63. It is also listed on the TSX with symbol CDM.WT at around $0.44. Would you be able to tell me what CDM.WT is?

Q: It appears that there is sector rotation going on from tech to resource class. Has oil bottomed out and price of commodities stabilized? Is it due to reversal of US dollar trend or other factors? Will you pl provide detailed explanation of these trends and your recommendation for sector allocations and winning short term strategy?
Regards,

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I own G, FNV and SLW representing in total about 6% of my stock portfolio. I am thinking of adding to my precious metals holdings (I like them as portfolio insurance and don't mind the dividends).

Do you think adding another 2% of my portfolio to these three holdings allows for sufficient diversification or would you suggest opening a new position in another company (and which would you currently suggest)?

Thank you. Michael

Q: Hello Team, I only have a small position in Gold Corp, and I would like to increase my exposure in the mining sector. I was thinking of purchasing FM, and I would like to hear if you feel that now is a good time to jump in. Also I would like to hear your opinion on any other candidates for the sector that you feel are worth holding. As with all my stocks, my intention is to hold onto them for a couple years.
Have a good weekend!

Q: I have Sprott Physical Silver Trust units which I bought at about $14 a unit quite a few years back. I now realize I should have sold them long ago, but I didn't.
I'm hoping Silver will eventually increase in price so I won't be stuck with a huge loss.
Today Sprott made an announcement of a hostile bid for metal trust.
I have a feeling this may not be good for PHS.U unit holders, can you comment on this deal?

If there's any conflict involved and can't comment, I'll understand.

Thanks,
Paul

Q: I have held NTC for some time, and I am wondering if the company is in a death spiral, or if has a chance to rebound at any time in the future. Selling at this time would yield very little, so I would wait if there was any chance for this company to do well if conditions change. Thanks so much.

Q: I have a small position in fr 1.6% and am currently down 28%. should I sell and cut my losses? brenda

Q: Hi Peter,

Any thoughts on Pretium and specifically the Brucejack project?

Q: What are your thoughts on today's announcement regarding their latest financials as well as the dividend cut. I got stopped out at $ 15.90 but wondering now if I should re-buy (even if it's a little higher). Do you see it going much below $ 16.00 in the next few months ?

Q: hi 5i. what do you think of their merger plans. the stock is up again today even with a dividend cut. stephen

Q: Peter, I require income, FGX has paid 0.48/mo. for past several years. Is this a good investment? is Yield-ROC, and if so will stocks be worthless in future.
Thanks

Q: My question is regarding Foran Mining (FOM) .Since i last inquired about it almost 2 years ago it appears a lot of very good things have happened to the company.Especially this past week. Can you look through some of the releases and comment on them ? also, the stock seems to have very good inside ownership along with a very strong shareholder base.Would you also agree that having Pierre Lassonde owning %10 is a great vote of confidence in the project ? The Zinc sector sure appears to be ripening at a great pace on the LME and 2 large zinc mines have yet to close this year. IN your opinion is management able to execute what is best for FOM shareholders. Some results are pending but what are some of the options available to management at this point. i know this is a small and risky situation but i did get in early and look forward to your comments . thanx Norm

Q: What is your opinion on buying ptm at .63 for a 3-5 yr. holding. With the amount of platinum, palladium and gold they have in the upcoming mines, would this not become a cash positive company. Thanks for much help, I have purchased 7 different new holdings in the last month.

Q: Hi All: It is time I added some insurance to my portfolio. I am interested in adding to my gold holdings, I hold Goldcorp now and I would like to add a gold ETF. In the past I have held CGL. I would prefer a bullion stock. What do you think of this idea? Please suggest a couple of ETFs or stocks that would be your top choice. Thank you again for your help. You are the best ever!!

Q: Peter and team:
I have watched this one from the sidelines for some time now. It is currently on a bit of a roll. Your last comment on CCO was back in Feb. Is there anything driving the current upward trend, and What are your thoughts on this stock as a 5 year+ investment? Is the 800 mil. potential back tax a real issue?

Thanks
Phil
