Q: Regarding AXX (Axia) what is the PE net of their cash position (once the sales close)?
You mentioned in an answer to a previous question they don't appear to have a good growth profile, however, in the most recent quarter they reported 14% YOY EBITDA growth. The covage network in France appears to have a good growth profile and the new network coming on line in Massachussets should add even further growth.
They appear to have a strong clean balance sheet and a proven ability to develop and monetize these fibre networks. I would think longer term someone either buys out their networks or they'll turn into a nice cash cow type utility company. Am I missing something here what's not to like?

Q: Peter...Congratulations on creating 5i. It is such a needed and valuable educational-consulting type service. We are all delighted with you and your team. I am sure your membership will continue to grow substantially!
My question...
In recent past Benj Gallander has recommended APT and AJX as good contrarian plays. However I notice they are very close to there 52 week highs! It is my understanding that contrarians are suppose to buy low and sell high. In any event how would you rate these companies?
Thanks for your expertise and insight!

Q: Christmas Greeting, Peter Co.
I am considering a purchase of Mandalay Resources (MND) shares for small cap precious metals exposure. Is the announced purchase of Challacollo from Silver Standard a material event to consider? Do you see MND as a survivor in this harsh precious metals climate? Is there a small cap, dividend paying PM stock that you would prefer?
Thanks,
Ed

Q: Seasons Greetings to all at 5i--Hope 2014 is both healthy and prosperous for you all.
I note that Pulse Seismic (PSD) is at or near all-time highs. Should I be adding for 2014 or take some off of the table. There is no tax consideration as far as 2013 is concerned. Thanks for all your help in 2013. Bill

Q: MCR and E (Macro Enterprises and Enterprise Group). After sharp increases in share price both of these stocks have flattened out and are trading within narrow ranges. Would you interpret this to be a good time to buy these stocks? i.e. in anticipation of another significant leg up?

Thanks. And the best of the Christmas season all of the Fab 5i Team!

Q: Peter & Co., your amazing service is invaluable to retail investors.
Athabasca Minerals was halted for much of the day pending news that the company did a bought deal financing. The units are priced at $1.45, $0.10 less than the closing price of the stock yesterday. I understand the potential value of the projects that this financing could permit. However, I expect that tomorrow the stock could trade below the $1.45 level, the issue price of the units.
Questions
1. If the company has not yet received the permits for the fracing sand project and the cash is not required immediately, is this financing likely coming at an opportune time to avoid financing after a possible poor Q4 that ended on November 30? This question calls for speculation that I hope your vast experience might shed some light on.
2. If the stock trades off to the high $1.30's, would it be a buying opportunity given the pricing of the financing?
Thanks, Peter.
