Q: Hi,
I own both AEM and KL, both with losses that I can use this year or carry forward.
I could sell one of them and buy the other as one question mentioned today. Which one you recommend I sell to buy the other? Or it does not really matter?
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Hi 5i team.
Previously owned KL and AEM.
In October, sold AEM and bought more KL to keep dollar amount same when merger suggested so as to take advantage of tax loss from AEM.
Now that merger is confirmed for supposedly 1st quarter 2022, I am thinking of selling KL to take advantage of some KL tax loss and buy equivalent amount of AEM before the merger.
Question : Is it possible that an offer could still come in at a higher price for KL before the final merger or is that totally off the table. If it is possible I will hold KL till closer to merger time before taking KL tax loss. (I presume this is still legit right up until the merger. My year end is not an issue here.)

Other logistics question re website.
Will a search of questions for dually listed Canadian and US firms bring up all questions whether searching for CA or US version? eg. KL:CA

Thank you for the great service and best of the season to everyone at 5i.

Read Answer Asked by jim on December 08, 2021
Q: I ran across the term 'green metals' recently. An American analyst indicated she was interested in them and that 2 of the miners she owns and are involved are Canadian. What does she mean by 'green metals', and which Canadian companies do you think she was referring to? Do you think she is right and what Canadian companies would you invest in to take part in the play?

Q: Hi 5i Team - I appreciated your detailed response to my question on this company back in August. Last week Orogen stock had quite a move upwards with some backtracking since. Just wondering if there is any news accounting for the run-up and if it is worth continuing to hold for a three year time horizon. Thanks.

Q: Peter & Co,
Nickel 28's Stock price (C$0.89) certainly does not appear to reflect the production, production growth, earnings or earnings growth of this nickel/cobalt miner.

EPS – Q3 US$0.07/share, Q1-3 US$0.19/share

P/E – 2.74x (assuming Q4 similar to Q3 and converting US$ to C$)

Debt - $79 million, down from 107.1 in Q3 2020

Cash – US$3.84 million

Product Pricing – Nickel and cobalt pricing is very strong and is projected to remain so.

I find this stock price to be very frustrating. What problem am I missing? Chinese partner? Venture Exchange? Microcap? Illiquid? Geography?
With appreciation,
Ed
