Q: Where could one look to learn about investing in critical minerals?
If you were to buy 5 companies in this area today, which would they be? Note: I prefer CDN companies, but would buy a U.S. one if it were significantly better

Q: Hi, Powell Industries seems to be in the right sector of electrical infrastructure and stock has done very well. However, as noted in your recent comments, it has been quite volatile, specially after the last quarterly results released in January.

The founder CEO, Mr Thomas Powell has sold bunch of shares in late 2023, as well over 50,000 shares, over a period of several days, between Feb and March, this year, ( $154 to $187 ). In addition, as per F144 filed on March 4, he intends to sell additional 200,000 shares, of which only 4000 shares have been sold on March 4 ( $185-$189 ). So, effectively, there continues to be an overhang of an impending sale of remaining shares, in the market.

Does it explain the sharp and precipitous decline of the stock over past 3 weeks ?

Is this a red flag and limits the future upside of this stock ?

On the bright side, Mr Powell still owns over 2.2 mln shares, which is about 22% of issued and o/s common shares of Powell Industries.

In your opinion, is the price decline of $45 from its recent high is overdone and POWL is a decent buy now, based on current valuation, minimal debt and future growth potential ?

We purchased the shares recently and own with ACB of $160 ( 1.25% weight ) to complement our HPS.a 3% position. Do you recommend holding the shares and add at current level or wait for next quarter ?

Thank You

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have been a loyal share holder for years and am down of course. These results look good...However...please tell me... if they should help the stock price knowing of course there is not guarantee only favourable odds. In other words does it have any kind of future progress or is my loyalty really unwarranted. Your opinion is always of great help...thank you immensely.

Q: I own WELL and like its potential. One comment over the past few quarters that I've heard by analysts is that stock based compensation (SBC) keeps increasing and is concerning. For its growth profile, is WELL's SBC a concern to you guys? Obviously getting heavily diluted impacts us shareholders. Just wondering at what level this becomes a red flag. Thx

Q: Greetings:
Yesterday, March 25 you gave a good rundown on Tve in answer to a question from Norwood. I bought 1850 shares on March 7, 2023 @ 4.11. The reports by 5i and others at that time were very encouraging, as they are today. It went down and stayed there all year, until very recently. It is cheap compared to some other oil names-- Agree or no?. I am interested in buying more but need your opinion. The other very important matter is from Ink Research who today reports that there is a short squeeze on TVE. Could you please provide the % of shorts? Doesn't it seem odd that there would be a short squeeze. ? If you agree, would it be better to wait until it settles down? I await your valued input. With thanks, Ben.
