Investment Q&A

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

Q: There are some rumours ABX will step in with a bid to takeover FM. I understand ABX has experience taking over mining companies shut down by 3rd World Governments. Then smoothing things over with the government leading to a re-start. FM certainly seems to be a candidate with their big debt. Not sure if the rumour is going to come true so I would take a pass for now. “Buy on Rumour, Sell on News” seems in this instance to be bad advice. However governments need some money coming in and their people need income too.

Q: I have owned Dundee Precious Metals (DPM) periodically over the past few years and the trades have been good. I like trying to trade DPM because it has net cash on the balance sheet and two profitable gold mines in Bulgaria. I also think that if the share price of DPM drops below my entry price by a lot the company will use its cash and start a large buyback or raise the modest dividend. But I just noticed that they used perhaps half of the cash on the balance sheet to buy a gold project in Namibia (Osino mines). What do you think of this deal? Was it a good acquistion? I think the next quarterly result will be good bcause of the higher gold price in the good ore grade at Bulgarian mines could make for good earnings. So aside from the Osino deal what do you think of DPM as a short time trade or longer term hold?

Q: Hi, can you recommend 2 US and 2 CDN metal stocks for a long term hold to total a 8% total position in metals? I'm ok with medium risk. If you have other choices besides the ones I've mentioned (CMC, FCX,CCO, RS, STLD, AMR) please suggest them.

Q: Peter; I’ve gone over your previous answers on AA and obviously it’s not your fav- but I’m just looking at the 5 year chart and see it maybe bottomed- 5 year high up in the $90’s - won’t it participate with a declining USD ? Your thoughts please. Just a small flyer .

Thanks.

Q: I want to get into gold stocks and have always preferred Franco Nevada in the past. Should I look at buying some of it now, and what other companies would you recommend to complement it if I do? (In the same sector) Thanks

Q: Greetings:
If you were establishing a position in gold miners, which would it be with reasons. B2 has hardly come off it's low with a nice dividend, Why? Must be a reason. I have been following gold closely for 50 years, and usually it amounts to no more than the rate of inflation, even though people like your old boss Eric was calling for $5,000.00 gold 15 years ago. However, one shouldn't knock all that hot air because it made him many millions.

Thanks, Ben.
