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

Q: Arizona Metals continues to prove out a lot of material (gold, copper, silver, zinc, etc.). The stock price has moved considerably already. The company is pre-revenue. They are essentially poking holes in the ground, but what they're pulling up looks good. Apparently the deposit is high-grade and shallow, making this a "green" project, which are the buzz words of the day. Can I get your take? Still too speculative for 5i?

Q: Hi Team, The monitor for David's Tea has issued their report and plan of compromise to be voted on by the companies creditors on June 11th. The report can be found here https://www.pwc.com/ca/en/services/insolvency-assignments/davidstea-inc-/monitor-s-report.html. It is a pretty quick read.
It seems like a clever, well thought out plan. What do you consider the likelihood that this plan gets approved by 67% of the creditors (based on value owed) in both the US and Canada?
In cases like this, does PWC work with the creditors in advance to "secure the votes" or are they just looking to just get the best deal possible for DTEA and hope it gets approved.
In my view, the trade suppliers and employees likely vote in favor. Canadian landlords may also be okay at 22 cents on the dollar. My concern is with the US landlords who only look to be getting 3 cents on the dollar (which is still better than what they would get in a bankruptcy). My question is do landlords typically have a threshold at which they would not accept a settlement below a certain % of their claim.
If it does not get approved does the monitor look to negotiate with the creditors or is bankruptcy automatic?
If this ends up in bankruptcy the estimated cost of the bankruptcy is $27 million, DTEA does have enough cash to pay out this sum. In that case, would the common shares still hold their value and would common shareholders be entitled to equity in any newco?
I recognize this is beyond the usual scope of the questions so please deduct question credits at your discretion

Q: Are you able to offer any insight to the bullish performance over the last 3-days? Trading volume on Friday was 8x average while stock has gone up ~8%.

Their Web Site has May 21st news - "Existing Notes validly tendered in the Exchange Offer may no longer be withdrawn," referencing offer made "to certain eligible noteholders" regarding secured notes.

Not much other news out there, hoping you could shed some light on why the stock has skyrocketed!

Thanks for your great service, Ted.

I have some play money in my cash account, I'm looking at purchasing 2 or 3 small caps or stocks around $1 in price (or under). Can you give me your top 5 Canadian companies that you think have the greatest upside over the next few years. I will take a look and pick the ones I think will work out best. Thanks again.
